Mine work fine from walking speeds. They produce more light at
higher speeds, but at slow speeds you don't need it, because you're
not moving fast.
I sometimes need light most at slow speeds, when I'm creeping up
hills and trying not to fall into giant pot holes.
You are an anomaly.
At creeping speeds (less than 10km/h), I could see holes with a candle
light.
