Hi Patrick, Thanks for the info. Currently, I am using battery powered lights on the front and rear of the bike. I have considered keeping the rear battery powered, for the reason you mentioned. I have one light on the rack and one on my Sackville SaddleSack. Perhaps just use the dyno hub to run a front headlight and keep the wiring simple for now.
I'd love to find a method for using the dyno hub to charge my mobile phone. :) Richard On Oct 19, 7:21 am, PATRICK MOORE <bertin...@gmail.com> wrote: > The best headlight for the money IMO and that of many others is the IQ > Cyo.
