    Great tips. Love the process. Would recommend measuring lux from 1m distance for a comparable value. Light is subject to the inverse square rule so proximity is king.

    Just a quick tip for cleaning brass and copper contacts, use a pencil eraser that way you just polish it up and remove the oxidation layer.

    Great video mate! You covered almost all aspects. I wish you had also measured the total DC voltage output without any load attached. Optionally, a 1000uF capacitor would condition the output to a slightly brighter light/ reading.

      I did want to put a larger capacitor in, but I couldn't fit it inside, it's really tight for space!

    Excellent hack and upgrade! Have MIL to additionally try using a helmet (mounted) light. The light tracks where she is looking, not the direction that the wheel is pointed. This is an amazing improvement. Much better visual information = much safer.

    Awesome stuff, it would have been great to make a mod with an accumulator for stops due to traffic lights when the led stop lightening, I am thinking about it. Keep going, great video !

    Good morning, I love this video and i wish to perform this conversion on my 50's bicycle . Question, could you please share a link to for instance aliexpress for the components required, this lens, power led and bridge rectifier + condensator are hard to find as the specs are not known to me.
    I thank you kindly in advance for the effort taken :)

    17:21 Could you please tell me the name of these lenses or where to find them? Thank you
    BTW, 1 diode would be enough and you would have less voltage drop. Also using a resistor and a zener diode wold be a good idea to limit the voltage, or you can use a transistor current follower but in this case i believe you might need a full bridge rectifier it depends on the Frequency you have and the capacitor value you also have

      Amazon, eBay, AliExpress and likely many other Chinese web stores.
      Do a search for "led lens 1W", or 3W, and you'll find various styles.

    Hello, look awesome !!!
    Could you please advise to select the right 4 bridges rectifier ?
    For information :
    For the led I found on Amazon with key words "LED 1W"
    And for bulb with key works "LED Lens 1W". I choosed and angle of 120°

      Any bridge rectifier will work here, it's not high power so not critical.

    I damaged this light because i converted it to direct battery system because the dynamo was not working properly but i connected the light to the laptop charger which damaged it and not turning on ,it was working perfectly with direct battery

    • @NearFarMedia
      @NearFarMedia  4 года назад

      I'd say the 19-ish volts of the laptop charger was too much for the 3v bulb.
      Maybe just a replacement bulb is needed.
