Rear dynamo lights seem a bit pointless to me given what is available now for a tenner (the Raleigh rear led light being the best I am aware of) and also results in untidy wiring stretched all over your top tube.
Once upon a time when dymano lighting output was of a feeble quality I might have agreed. These days with led lamps and schmidt or shimano hub dynamos they are the fit and forget solution to bicycle lighting. I tend to carry a backup rear light such as a Superflash, but, am happy to reach down and turn on my lighting on my tourer, my audax, and soon, when I've got round to it, my bent and my tandem.
It's a (almost) never get caught out scenario. A dynamo lighting rig I would suggest fails far less than a battery-powered one. I have only ever had one dynamo back light fail in use, yet countless number of batteries go flat, bulbs expire, lamps jump from flimsy bracket issues, especially in the old never ready days

There's no hassle about charging batteries, carrying spares, etc. etc.
I often wonder why all bikes don't have integrated dynamo-powered lighting these days.
