Question about Lumotec IQ Fly standlight function
Hello,
I have a question about standlight function of Lumotec IQ Fly: is the light still on after I turn the lamp off? I mean, assuming that I first rode a bit with the lamp turned on (so that the standlight function gets charged) and then stopped and switched the lamp "off" - is the lamp still will be shining (even though switched off), until the standlight function is discharged? Also similar question about a rearlights with standlight function (e.g. one of Toplight family lamp). I understand there is no on/off switch for rearlights, so I assume the light must be shining untill it is discharged? |

On the Busch & Muller 4DLite Plus taillight, you can discharge the capacitor by using a key or other piece of metal to bridge two metal contacts on the side of the light. But I've found that you have to do it a couple of times or the light will still glow dimly (or maybe I need to use a better conductor.) |

I've stood inside the library's glass window looking out and seen the likely thieves eyeing my bike and then walking past to start fingering the bits on the next bike. A light makes your bike look like you're coming back to it straighaway. Andre Jute http://members.lycos.co.uk/fiultra/B...%20HUMOUR.html |
