Two caveats:

- the reecharge battery has to be charged up. Mine is normally 100% as it's always fed the dynamo power except when I'm using my edelux.
- the battery won't charge the phone past 80% or so when it's not being charged, either via the wall socket or the dynohub.

Those caveats aside, it works great.
