Taking it apart, I saw that the batteries were made in July 2015. Not too good for it to stop working that soon. Some of my bikes have dynamos that are 30 years old. They just keep going and going and going... Until you get to a red traffic light, to a stop sign or into a traffic jam. The perfect spot at night to get hit by a car driver who didn't see you because you were on the only unlit vehicle around. AFAIK: dynamo lighting is illegal in the UK for exactly that reason. I do not think so. It may be the case that turning across traffic at night you don't wait in the middle of the road, but stand lights have long solved that. Looks like what I was told was either wrong or out of date - but I have been warned that a backup battery may not make a dynamo ant less illegal. |
