  2. Bottle dynamo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottle_dynamo

    A bottle dynamo or sidewall dynamo is a small electrical generator for bicycles employed to power a bicycle's lights. The traditional bottle dynamo (pictured) is not actually a dynamo at all (which creates DC power), but a low-power magneto that generates AC .

  3. Hub dynamo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hub_dynamo

    Bicycle dynamos instead use permanent magnets to eliminate the need for a battery to excite the field and initiate electrical generation. Shimano offers a variety of hub dynamos under the "Nexus" brand, such as the DH-3N70/DH-3N71, advertised as having significantly less drag than the Nexus NX-30. SRAM manufactured the i-Light hub dynamo until ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_lighting

    From as early as 1888, electric-powered bicycle lamps were manufactured but did not become a viable proposition until 1898. They comprised an incandescent bulb and either a lead-acid battery or a dynamo. Lead-acid batteries were replaced by dry cells and later by alkaline batteries. Dynamos improved in efficiency and reliability, recently being ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanically_powered...

    A dyno torch, dynamo torch, or squeeze flashlight is a flashlight or pocket torch which generates energy via a flywheel. The user repeatedly squeezes a handle to spin a flywheel inside the flashlight, attached to a small generator/dynamo, supplying electric current to an incandescent bulb or light-emitting diode. The flashlight must be pumped ...

  7. Battery charger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_charger

    A battery charger, recharger, or simply charger, [1] [2] is a device that stores energy in an electric battery by running current through it. The charging protocol—how much voltage and current, for how long and what to do when charging is complete—depends on the size and type of the battery being charged.
