I remeber seeing ads by Soubitez (sp?) that had a standlight even

distinctly remember the two pictures in the ad with one showing a
stopped bicycle at an intersection with no front light showing and
another image showing the standlight being visible to motorists.
So at least one well respected bicycle dynamo lighting manufacturer
back in the 1980s thought tthat a dynamo standlight was a good thing.


Worked as advertised but sold miserably. Lots of 'hey that's cool' but
precious few sales.

Do you know how the standlight was powered?
