Anyone have an idea what frequencies are typical with these generators? This of course depends on speed and wheel diameter. Alternatively, how many voltage cycles do you get per wheel rotation?
My recollection is that Dynohubs had 20 pole magnets. Current generator hubs are probably similar, judging by the apparent flicker frequency at low speeds.
