Angled filler for bicycle seatpost lights
Description
I've got a bunch of tail lights for my bikes, some are really nice (any of the [Bontrager lights](https://www.trekbikes.com/us/en_US/equipment/cycling-accessories/bike-lights/c/E312/) are really, really nice) and some are kinda cheap. The [nice lights](https://www.trekbikes.com/us/en_US/equipment/cycling-accessories/bike-lights/bike-rear-lights/bontrager-flare-r-rear-bike-light/p/13202/?colorCode=red) mount to the seatpost with an angle so that the light is shining parallel to the ground, which maximizes the brightness seen by those behind, but the cheap lights mount parallel to the seatpost so they're pointing down. This greatly reduces the brightness of the light as seen from behind as the light winds up sending most of the light to the ground behind the bike. I don't always have my nice lights with me when I need one, so I came up with this design that fits a 27.2mm seatpost and tilts the light so that it points level and can be seen from behind better. It will fit a larger seatpost, it just won't follow the curve of the post quite so well. **Note:** the green one in the photos is 10mm taller than the supplied STL file, as I discovered it was too tall. If you need it taller, I've included the Fusion360 F3D file, or you can contact me and I can upload a taller STL.
