Kickstarter-Aktion - die Zweite
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects...c-intelligent-contactless-bicycle-dy?ref=live
2014 mit Standlicht ("iC Frontlight and iC Rearlight with steady light & intelligent control for efficient power (incl. adapter).)
StVZO-Zulassung wird angestrebt. "shark lens for a single front light to make the bike more visible from the side" (nur) für´s Rücklicht?
Es wird nur noch eine Version(keine Sport oder City Variante) geben. Der Microcontroller sorgt dafür, dass in jedem Geschwindikeitsbereich die optimale Leistung erzielt wird.
"We use Cree XBD-R4 - but actually check alternatively Cree XP-E2 which have similar properties. Each lamp has two leds so we get higher efficiency compared to efficiency at 1 Watt. Lux values will be aproximately 30% higher but even the results of the old version are not bad for this tiny generator."
"We expect at least 10000h lifetime for the capacitor (10 years, if you cycle 3 hours a day) , because average temeprature is below 40 degrees Celsius"
"We thought about a USB dynamo version but it would be necessary to make it bigger and would be more complicated. So we have concentrated on light actually. We don't like eternal cables at all and are looking forward to cooperate with a company that can help to integrate Magnic Light in the bicycle frame. In this case we wouldn't need to connect different parts (front and rear lights) by annoying external cables but keep it all inside the frame. Will take a while to make this happen and we won't be able on our own to do this.."
Komplett-Set, 2x Front, 1x Rückleuchte inkl. Adapter für 179 $ ca. 132 € (2013, erste Generation 229,00 €)
Frontleuchte oder Rückleuchte inkl. Adapter für 69 $ ca. 51 € (2013, erste Generation 79,00 €)
Bei mehr als 200.000$ wird es einen Anti-Klau Adapter (2 security scews und 2 security bit tools with magnic light individual shape) geben.
"We have not finished this yet. It is a software issue and we will integrate different modes. You switch between modes by moving your bike 2 times to the front and back:
Mode 1: strong steady light (~1 minute)
Mode 2: weak steady light (~3 minutes)
Mode 3: strong flash light (~6 minutes)
Mode 4: strong steady light ( 30 seconds) + weak steady light(~3minutes)
We can adjust this by software. We are searching for a simple and clear solution. Maybe we should make a small survey among backers within the next days concerning this point."
