What an interesting thread! I've read so many postings proclaiming the advantages of the Schmidt lighting system that I wondered why I seemed to be happy with my DiNotte lights. Yep, I agree. For my hour commute I'm better off with my lightweight dual li-ion lights, which I can quickly change bikes on. Unless you're into brevets, or really prefer to ride during the night, the price, weight, and setup of a generator system outweigh the advantages.
