Default Stranded by a headlight.
Just getting off a 20 hour day ready to go home and get my 4 hrs of sleep before doing it all over again and my headwinds led headlight goes out leaving me stranded . Luckily not on the freeway yet and only 10 blocks from my day job. Now to wait till until O'riely opens up, get a new headlamp then go home and sleep. Thank god, I'm on vacation after today!!!

Rant over!

Better do some investigation, LED are usually pretty rugged, if it is actually bad, you'll want to know why.

Curious to know what type of Headwinds LED? Was it the +/- $70 replacement unit?
