That should charge pretty quickly, and have a long life. More likely a rechargeable battery that has died, and now won't hold a charge. A most enlightening exchange! A capacitor?

He cited my paragraph in the above article about his bike lights as something he could no longer find. He told me he does have a capacitor in his dynamo system. I expect the trip from Manor Community College to Milton Road had been insufficient to charge it.

I have never seen anyone use the one outside Parkside - these stainless steel machines are horribly exposed to passing traffic and pedestrians and the handles are too cold to grip in the winter. I can't imagine how anyone would possibly use these things as part of a fitness regime. They are just a fob to the health and fitness agenda - actually achieving nothing. A complete white elephant.
