In the absence of more info, I would advise not separating the magnet and armature. The lights were somewhat dim compared to previously but I think the 'Dynohub' is 1.8W as opposed to most 'bottle' type dynamos which are 3W. The former is a bit 'olde-worlde' though has the benefit of less drag and no wear on the tyre side-walls. Not sure whether the lights would be legal but fitting 6V .15A bulbs front and rear should load the unit correctly. If the magnets are indeed weak, how to re-magnetise we might leave to another day.Light of lighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01181865772081928215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1788949981652429836.post-48127869575865844632011-07-04T07:56:56.438+01:002011-07-04T07:56:56.438+01:00My GH6 seems to run my Edelux just fine surprising...My GH6 seems to run my Edelux just fine surprisingly enough.

I'd like to see a piece of modern equipment that will still be around in 2064! Great pics, thanks for sharing.<br /><br />(PS Having had your fun dismantling it you could probably get good money selling this on eBay, they are quite desirable!)ibikelondonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06978714126105951294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1788949981652429836.post-89185343311458235702010-11-23T10:10:23.349+00:002010-11-23T10:10:23.349+00:00There's not really much to go wrong with them....There's not really much to go wrong with them. I think the magnet does lose some of its power over the years though and if someone in it's past has removed it from the armature then there's no way you can get that power back without using somekind of terrifying machine of death to do it.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13570415802364596822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1788949981652429836.post-79807735045971205442010-11-22T12:36:19.045+00:002010-11-22T12:36:19.045+00:00I have an old AWG 3 speed hub which I have been in...I have an old AWG 3 speed hub which I have been intending to use for something, possibly a Twenty. Need to test it still works first though, pleasingly enough the gears are good to go. I wouldn't expect any less.Dr C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10234078254243840589noreply@blogger.com
