Thanks for your suggestion, Rick. I had heard of them. Actually I was looking for PedalCell, a still more efficient device among this last generation rim dynos (not tire dynos, mind the difference), but unfortunately they had to stop production and close the business altogether. Then I dismissed the idea, but looking at
https://www.cyclingabout.com/rim-dyn...n-hub-dynamos/ I found your suggestion again.
By the way, the web I have linked to above is a comparison between dynohub charging sets with these last gen rim dynos commented by pro world tourer Alee Denham.
