Assuming the difference in drag of Dyna hub or weight of batteries and/or external charger is negligible.
Simple math.
T=How long on Tour?
B=How many batteries needed to recharge devices?
C=Cost per battery?
Ch=charger?
H=cost of hubs and associated gear?
T*B*C vs. H
Practical math example
T= 16 days
B= 4 batteries
C = .4
CH= I already have a charger
Total = $25.60
Hub is not cost effective for me.
You forgot, I think, to factor in number of tours. If you have done 50 tours in the life of your dynohub, I think the costs start to favour the hub.
