Great questions.
talking about your camera kit so skipped though the video a bit so maybe you covered this but what is the power output?
That video was made by one of our customers. The peak power output is 15-20W. You can see our full power graph below or at this link: pedalcell.com/data
The Velogical only put out 1.5w which is less than a lot of hubs.
Velogical does make a more powerful version, though there are a few advantages PedalCell has over Velogical:
- PedalCell is tested to work in mud/grime off-road. Velogical has not
(seen in earlier video post) - PedalCell has 2X the power output and 1/2 the drag per watt compared to Velogical's top model (comparison)
- PedalCell is noticeably quieter (our customer video vs theirs
) - PedalCell includes one mount that offers near-universal install (Velogical requires a dozen different mounts depending on the bike design)
- PedalCell is less expensive ($299.99 USD vs $370 USD)
I also see the bit about you putting sport tape on the fork leg for extra friction, why not just make a clamp that works properly?
Again, this was a customer's video, not ours. To our knowledge, they added the tape as a proactive measure. While the tape certainly won't hurt, the clamp is 100% designed to work without tape. See our install instructions here.
