P.S. From Peter White -
"The Luxos U won't charge a car battery, or an iPad, though it will charge an iPhone or a Garmin Edge 810. The larger battery in the iPad needs too much current; more than the Luxos U can provide. If you need to charge an iPad on the road, you'll need to find another solution. Hub dynamos just don't have enough power output."

It's not specific to the Luxos U either - any dynamo is just not going to provide that much power...
