has anyone here got an old sturmey archer dynohub that they’ve successfully bought a lamp to attach to?
my missus’ pub bike has a dynohub on it dating from the late 40s. I’d like to make use of it, rather than sticking a plasticky led light on what is otherwise a classy steel and chrome (and rust) covered old school beauty (the bike, not the missus – she is neither old, nor rusty!).
I think the hub is rated to 6V and about 1.8W. Most newer dynamo lamps seem to want 2.4 or 3 watts, which this is going to struggle with! They also cost a small fortune; I just want something that I don’t have to replace batteries in, looks nice and won’t piss me off to much when/if it gets nicked.
Cheers,
Dave
