I made no claim that one is better than the other. I've actually seen and experimented with the Biologic device, I've never seen your company's device anywhere, and since your company doesn't exhibit at Interbike I doubt if I ever will. This is understandable since the North American market for your products is so small, but by the same token maybe doing some marketing for North America would be a good idea. Your company exhibits at Eurobike, maybe it's time to crack the North American market. Your company's product is a more complex device, requiring two components, the E-WERK and the separate cache battery. It's also much more expensive. From Peter White, the two pieces cost about $290. The Biologic device has a street price of $90. I'm perfectly happy to review your product. I can send you an address where you can send me a sample. |

I wrote some articles comparing dynamo-USB-adapters. Schmidt Maschinenbau does not offer such devices. I'm perfectly happy to review your product. I don't know exactly of what product you are talking. I am using a cheap and easy circuit like this: http://fahrradzukunft.de/12/minimal-lader/ Try it out! Sorry, I thought you worked for B&M, not Schmidt. My mistake. |

My review of the earlier "Reecharge": http://fahrradzukunft.de/12/steckdose-unterwegs-2/ There's a bit more to a useful USB charger than a stable voltage supply. Many USB devices sense the type of charger they are connected to through the use of resistors in the charger to bias the data lines. An iPad for example, might only trickle charge if the data lines are left open, expecting it's plugged in to an un-powered hub with minimum power supply capability. -- JS |
