I bought a Sanyo bottom bracket generator from Peter White Cycles. I was intrigued by the design benefits and curious how well it worked.
I made two small modifications. Installation details are in [photos and captions].
Watch for another report if I decide to install the cable release (rather than running the generator all the time). And watch to see if I make a tire-surface brush (to keep detritus from embedding itself in the generator wheel). And watch for a report on installing the light (B&M Lumotec Lyt). And how well I like the pattern...

Hi,
How has the Sanyo generator worked for you so far? I am considering getting one also.
Thanks and ride safe.

Doug,
My Sanyo generator is still working great. I have been using it moderately for about five months:
- During dark mornings of my commutes, 2-4 times per week
- During a few hours in dark mornings during one 200K per month.
It has been completely reliable.
The extra load is noticeable, but not overwhelming.
I am totally happy with it.
Hello
Im curious on how you wired the single wired NH-t10 to the dual(+\-) headlight?
Thanks!
Christopher
Hi Christopher,
I *think* the connector on the generator has two wires. I will check it.

Ah, two would make more sense.
Thanks for checking
Christopher
