I like the Lumotec Oval Senso Plus with my dynohub. But that's not
quite the question you asked. If you want the *brightest* dyno-light,
you want the Solidlights 1203D:

Of course, the price might be a small disincentive. *cough* 145 GBP
*cough* plus shipping.

Really, I think a good 3W light + a front blinky is probably the best
combination IMHO. But, one day...
