Miles in front of my knowledge which ends much sooner - at the "thats a circuit board" stage.
Hopefully with your new headlight you'll not have to heat up the soldering iron but can concentrate on pedalling.
Will you be contemplating any upgrades like a charging system for say a phone, gps or headlight torch?
Thank you for the well wishes. I do want to create some charging systems (using the dynamo to re-charge the batteries instead of inefficient capacitors) so that my bicycle can be "entirely" indepedent, but I just don't have the knowledge, tools or the time right now.
I keep hearing contradictory information about the safety of re-chargeable Ni-CAD batteries being charged while in use.
