    Ok, I forgot the voltage drop =\ I got LED light so should be fine. What I should do is put your circuit to the test without the capacitor and check if the voltage is low enough for the capacitor to handle ? How should I balance the capacitors ? (Even if I will not take this path, I would like to know)

    Thanks again for your help

    What I wanted to do was something like that IMG_20240925_092655

    Though you seem to have a better knowledge and better circuit. I bought 2 super cap 5.5v so I wanted to put them in series (though get half the capacitance). Your approach seems to be better and I may take it. Though mine should be working ? Keep in mind that I'm a nooby in electronics and I keep learning from the internet so not the best to have solid base...

    Does your solution works with 5.5V, the 6V dynamo does not blow it ?

    Thank you for your answer I really like it.

    Really good point, though as a stupid human I didn't understood what was the difference between the Nxt 60 steady and the Nxt 60 E bike... Now I know. I don't have this marvelous option =\ explaining why the back doesn't light up either.... Thank you for pointing it out, I couldn't get the article from the site itself so I took another seller and it was not available (it is now)

    Indeed, 2 pair of 2 wires so 4 wires can be connected to the dynamo.

    I will try that, I need to find some proper diode then find the capacitor or buy it and I should be good. I'll keep you in touch if I manage to find the parts. Thank you

    I should have put the stuff I have, so here you are : Dynamo : https://www.axasecurity.com/bike-security/en-gb/products/lights/7/93903195SC/axa-hr-traction-right Rear light : https://www.axasecurity.com/bike-security/en-gb/products/lights/7/93929195SC/axa-juno-e-bike-6-12v-80-mm Front light : https://www.axasecurity.com/bike-security/en-gb/products/lights/7/92520095SB/axa-nxt-60-steady

    Indeed it seems like a great project I think the output is DC though I'm not sure. To be honest I tried to put a capacitor (50V) put it seemed to had no effect (maybe to little capacitance or more probably the coil of the motor should have eaten the storage. Is probably should add a diode to the circuit, am I right ?

  • Hello everyone, I bought a bottle dynamo for my bicycle with a rear and front light. Though I have one little tweak that I would like to add and that's a way to keep it light up for about 1 minute (at least 30 sec) without pedaling. I thought of putting a capacitor in the circuit to store some energy but I would like what do you all think of it ? Thank you for your time and have a nice day you all !

    This week in KDE: per-monitor brightness control and “update then shut down”

    In linux mint if I remember correctly, I was able to change the brightness of my monitor but without it built I compatibility. Does someone know if I can do the same in KDE ?

    OK I will try when I get time, I didn't download it from fitgirl though. I'll keep you in touch if I can get it working ! Thanks for your help :)

    I'm pretty sure I ran the good exe file, the game is Still Wakes the Deep I'm not sure why it happened but the issue happened with kubuntu also I did found the vcrun and this issue disappeared, though for DirectX I don't know which DLL choose.

    Thank you for your answers, I swapped back to kubuntu and will see if I can get it working. Thank you for your time and sorry for the bother.

  • Hello, I just installed Nobara as I thought it would be easier to play on Linux I had a bit of experience with KDE and manage to get a system running OK. Though I have now an issue with wine. When I tried to start an application (the installation is done at this point) it ask to have DirectX installed to get it running. How do I get it installed ? Also I think I have multiple wine installations as, if I start it through heroic or steam it ask for DirectX and vcrun (visual C++ if I remember correctly) and if I start it through the file browser, it only ask for DirectX Do you know how to solve those issues ? If I get more information or solve the issue I'll post a comment about it. Have a pleasant day you all and take care !

    Hello, as you can see in the following picture, I have some issue with an app, I think that media storage and external storage are used by some apps though I don't have any clue about which one, Does this happened to any of you ? For your information, my phone is a mi A1 that run on lineage OS nightly Tissot 20 : 20-20240605-NIGHTLY-tissot The problem happened before I made an update so it's probably not related I hope I do not break any rule from this community Have a nice day you all :) ![Screenshot_20240607-140847_GSam Battery Monitor](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/f6b66d52-7b13-4f30-a8b0-0bdbd769411d.jpeg)
