  • No signs of anything broken with the rear. My Luxos U start flickering when it's wet and wonder if it would have anything to do with that.

    I need to find a way to test the rear light with power with things I have around the house.

    Tried with a multimeter for circuit continuity and I do not get a sound/0 on it. The same applies when I test the Luxos U output. Not sure is it means anything as the green light turns on.

  • You can connect the dynamo directly to the rear light using the same spade connectors and spin the wheel by hand to see if there's any signs of life.

    I wouldn't ride it like this, as not all rear lights can take the full voltage.

    Don't read too much into the voltage mesaurement. As long as it's getting something it should work, as dynamo specs are very fuzzy.

  • Thought about it and even tried. No response. I believe the rear light requires DC hence the requirement to be connected through the front unit. As such not so sure about the efficiency of the direct connection to the Velogical dynamo.
