Remindme! 4 days

Ok, I forgot the voltage drop =\ I got LED light so should be fine. What I should do is put your circuit to the test without the capacitor and check if the voltage is low enough for the capacitor to handle ? How should I balance the capacitors ? (Even if I will not take this path, I would like to know)

Thanks again for your help

What I wanted to do was something like that

Though you seem to have a better knowledge and better circuit. I bought 2 super cap 5.5v so I wanted to put them in series (though get half the capacitance). Your approach seems to be better and I may take it. Though mine should be working ? Keep in mind that I'm a nooby in electronics and I keep learning from the internet so not the best to have solid base...

Does your solution works with 5.5V, the 6V dynamo does not blow it ?

Thank you for your answer I really like it.

Did you wait for them to die before ?

It seems like a great book :) Thank you, I'll save it to try it one day !

Do you, by any chance, have the recipe ? Have a nice day Edit : of course it looks delicious !

Seems bad so, I have to make a diode bridge rectifier so =\ need to scrap more diode ! Too bad as I wanted to make something small

Really good point, though as a stupid human I didn't understood what was the difference between the Nxt 60 steady and the Nxt 60 E bike... Now I know. I don't have this marvelous option =\ explaining why the back doesn't light up either.... Thank you for pointing it out, I couldn't get the article from the site itself so I took another seller and it was not available (it is now)

Indeed, 2 pair of 2 wires so 4 wires can be connected to the dynamo.

I will try that, I need to find some proper diode then find the capacitor or buy it and I should be good. I'll keep you in touch if I manage to find the parts. Thank you

Yes but it should not be like 30 seconde long I think, so it should be OK for a bicycle :)

I should have put the stuff I have, so here you are : Dynamo : https://www.axasecurity.com/bike-security/en-gb/products/lights/7/93903195SC/axa-hr-traction-right Rear light : https://www.axasecurity.com/bike-security/en-gb/products/lights/7/93929195SC/axa-juno-e-bike-6-12v-80-mm Front light : https://www.axasecurity.com/bike-security/en-gb/products/lights/7/92520095SB/axa-nxt-60-steady

Indeed it seems like a great project I think the output is DC though I'm not sure. To be honest I tried to put a capacitor (50V) put it seemed to had no effect (maybe to little capacitance or more probably the coil of the motor should have eaten the storage. Is probably should add a diode to the circuit, am I right ?

In linux mint if I remember correctly, I was able to change the brightness of my monitor but without it built I compatibility. Does someone know if I can do the same in KDE ?
