Have you tried the new Drafts feature yet? I just lost a long message today and learned my lesson. It is a good idea to save a draft of any long post you are writing. You can then just keep writing and keep saving a draft, knowing you have a backup if there is a glitch. The draft is automatically deleted when you post the message.

Hi Artur,

Perfect for a Douglas from the early 1920s! The lighting set used the "Britalite" trade name (sounds like "brighter light" in English), and was for fitting to machines with external flywheels. Optionally the generator could be fitted with a belt pulley. The company was formed in December 1914, and the attached info comes from 1922.

Cheers

Leon

Hi Leon
Amazing news . I wonder  that dynamo rotation wheel was conected with bike wheel . I see now that this solution is for external flywheels.
Thank you Leon for your information. Good to know and always new things learn from great people on Forum.  Great to be here.

Best regard Artur
