I agree that you're a good candidate for sticking with dynamo power.

Tail lights need a lot less power than headlights, so I think battery powered tail lights are fine, and there are many to choose from. Batteries in my tail lights last for months.

But have at least one dynamo powered headlight. They are very reliable, and I only see high quality dynamo powered headlights on the market.
