I also found an interesting sight that discusses hub dyno power for USB
stuff:

When the Petrocalypse (the Post Petroleum Apocalypse) finally hits, the
dyno-hubbed will rule!

I have a Schmidt dynohub and a Busch Muller Lumotec IQ CYO WHICH I LOVE!
I'm planning on upgrading to the Busch Muller Luxos which has a USB port
on the switch for charging stuff. Peter White can't say enough about this
light. - http://www.peterwhitecycles.com/bm-hl.asp

Does look sweet but $250 shipped for a light? I love my dynamo but just
carry around a spare cell phone battery, cost me 20 bucks. One of the
upsides of not being part of the apple zombie universe, batteries that
actually come out, what a novel concept!

I totally agree with you about the apple zombie universe. I know. I have an
ipod but I bought it years ago.

my riding bro is currently working up the same setup so he can I-phone GPS

I just looked at the beam comparisons from PJW's page -- man, what a good
light! It really is amazing how good LED lights have gotten in the last few
years: when I got my first dyno light about 7 or 8 years ago they weren't
nearly as good. Today, even the lowly IQ Fly original is pretty damn'
I saw peter whites's post showing how bright the luxos b is and it's really
impressive. PeterM they make a version without the USB charging and it's
equally bright. but something i've been waiting to see feedback on, the luxos
b has a small battery that actually charges the USB device and it
Now you have me on the Peter White site instead of working, the U looks
really bright, but so wide, maybe too wide for traffic and bike paths?

No, what causes problems with lights is the light shining in the eyes, not
the width. The Luxos has a cutoff, which keeps the level of the light
below the eyes of the pedestrians and drivers, so it doesn't blind them...

That makes sense. I have the IQ Cyo R, with the same cutoff, its really
nice but not so wide to disturb the pot smoking teenagers on
the benches beside the bike path. Ok, small exaggeration, some of them are
having sex, which I really don't want to see, although maybe for societies
sake someone
Very cool idea!!

Worked out well today except I think the ipod battery got cold in the wind.
After about 20 min my fully charged ipod was dead. Then after like two
stoplights it was back up 1/2 way again. Worked just fine all the way home
in slightly warmer weather. I've heard of battery life decreasing in the
13 matches
