What light is that?

(Compared to the DC version shown in the test, the dynamo H-Black-Pro is
somewhat dimmer.) It doesn't really matter because the Herrmans optic is
annoyingly unrefined in either version. And, needless to say, it's a low
beam with a symmetrical cutoff, so it is certainly not producing a DRL beam
shape.

That's the light I commute on (dynamo) and it's find for forest tracks
at night. It has the DLR on by default (which means the rear is on
permanently. Nice light, and going into 3rd winter so actually seems
waterproof!

Very early adopter there! Don't you get a gap between the wheel and where
the large bottom patch of light hits the ground? I don't like that when
riding offroad.

I appreciate the lamp's concept though and hope they'll eventually come
around to using some nicer LED and putting more effort into smoothing out
the intensity and color transitions.
