Default dynamo light cutout

a few seconds to a few minutes. The standlights remain on (if they
had time to charge up). If I stop the front wheel for a few seconds
and then set off again the lights work again.


Round Lumotec? This is normal :-(

You need to spring the internal contacts a bit, and make sure you don't
adjust the light up and down by pushing on the reflector. The oval Lumotec
is somewhat better, but will still do this. The SON E6 does not do this,
but has no standlight.
