what is the wannabe part if as you say, they are cruising the streets? Sounds like they are pretty legit cyclists so far.

For anyone who never took circuits, what he is trying to explain is impedance matching. The tl;dr is that the a DC circuit can transfer the most power from source to load when the equivalent resistance of the load is equal to the equivalent resistance of the source. This is *not* the most efficient way the system can be configured, only the one with the most power transfer. I would assume most of these systems have a substantially more resistive load, which will give you less light, but with much more of the energy you put in actually getting turned into light. What he's actually done is tuned a system that was running at 3W previously to move 10W, which gives more light at the cost of less efficiency and more resistance on the wheel. No laws of thermodynamics have been broken, and he's running the generator less efficiently, not more. He didn't discover anything, he just changed the circuit to fulfill a different goal than the original engineers.

To me, the most significant missed opportunity was the Sharks' astonishment at his markup from $50 to $500. All he had to do was listen, pause, think and explain "It takes me 10 hours (or whatever) to build each light", and add "I'm selling to people who spend $10,000 on a bike, a $1000 on a wheel, and just want the best and lightest in every component on their bike, whatever the cost".

His current website suggests that his lights would be paired with dynamo hubs from existing manufacturers - SON, Shimano, Shutter Precision.

I can't find anything about this claim anymore on his current website, so I wonder if that is still a part of the technology or if he just shifted to be one of the players in the (3W) dynamo lighting space, but focused on optimizing for ultra-endurance riding.

@@chukuemekaoje1015 Right, I realize it's a highly suspect claim, but interested how he would even _attempt_ to explain it. I also realize there are "no free lunches" and that the energy would have to come from some source - that said there _is_ additional energy available in the spinning wheel (which was always the original source of any energy from the hub). I'm no electrical engineer, but doesn't seem _entirely_ unbelievable that electronics connected to a dynamo hub could _possibly_ (but maybe not!) cause it to exceed its usual limits to "steal" more energy from the spinning wheel at the cost of more drag (so _not_ creating energy out of thin air). It also seems possible that his (misleading) claim is really more about his truly 3W system being "effectively" as bright as a similar 10W system would be (similar to how LED household lightbulbs are often marketed according to the wattage of the comparable incandenscent bulb they could replace, rather than wattage they actually use in the finer print). I haven't rewatched the video since my original comment, but it didn't _seem_ that this is what he meant, but who knows?! It's definitely a suspicious claim.

Some men were raised to say things like "sweetie, darling, etc" to women often to show that they aren't a threat, that they respect you, they might think of you as a daughter/sister/mother, etc. I watch Chef Gordan Ramsey a lot on youtube. In many of the shows, when he's speaking to women of all ages, and they hand him something, or he asks something from them, he always says "thank you, Darling". You can tell it's just how he was raised to speak politely to women.

An E-bike turns electricity into rotational kinetic force to move the wheels. And this dynamo turns the kinetic energy from the rotation into electricity. One of the most important principles of energy is that it is always zero sum. That means it doesn't gain nor lose energy unless there is an external cause. The external cause here would be air friction, friction with the road it's running on, amongst many others. The dynamo would add to that, one more source of friction to the wheels. The dynamo fitted on the wheels would in turn slow the bike down. And the energy generated at the cost of slowing down the wheel would not be greater than the loss of distance due to needing higher energy cost to run the same speed. TL;DR It would only charge peanuts worth, and that wouldn't be enough for the E-bike to make up for extra friction. If anything, you'll just lose total distance.

Just being on shark tank will find someone that knows the bike industry!!

Plus if its only $50 a unit to build, he could adjust and lower his pricing a little too if he had to. I hope he keeps up the enthusiasm!

1:15 Steve already gets visibly pissed 😂😂

I have been using a K-lite for 12 months - absolutely brilliant setup!

Not sure why they didnt include the sales and revenue part...

This surprised me because the amount of cyclist out there that do need long lasting torches that are efficient enough to run this seem to tick all boxes. I get he was eccentric but he was fascinating in a genius way and super cool 😎

i'm glad they were polite to him

I need more crack cocaine, for this, so my brain can process this. Damn, this is too much.

Bicycle dynamo to power bicycle lights has been around for a long time.

as a former pro cyclist myself (and an engineer) i have to call bs on the wattage stuff if he hasnt come up with a clever ultra small rectifier condenser schematic, but his product isnt that bad. id buy it for 300 straight if everything plus usb power charger is included.

he just is impedance matching and overcharging for a LED light. The cost should be in the dyno, not the light.

as an EE impedance matching could perhaps allow him to get more power from the dynamo. Id think the load would be speed dependent and thus hard to match.

I don’t see any pro riding with a dynamo tbh. The weight of a clip on light with batteries really isn’t that much, the resistance of a dynamo is soo much more annoying

Huge mistake for the sharks! I just checked his website and he is in bike shops all over the world!
