Supernova Sweetness and Light !
« on: 23 December, 2008, 11:23:45 pm »
This arrived this week. It is a thing of simple beauty and seriously better than my old SolidLights. Fortunately, I pre-ordered it some months ago when the Euro was cheap(er)  :)
At low speeds, a single LED lights up. On its own this LED is brighter than the Solidlights at full tilt. At about 10-12kph, the other 2 LEDS light up. I have not had a chance to do decent ride at night with it yet but it looks very promising.
The dynamo wire connects using a pair of in line gold plated connectors (Graupner G2 - used in model aircraft with electric motors as high current connectors)
I have spent an hour or so converting the Soilidlights to these connectors as well.

That looks interesting!  I wonder how it compares to the new Schmidt light and teh Cyo?
