Was looking at the Lumintop B01. Output is only a mere 850lm. Is anyone able to bump that output to 2000lm? Change of pcb or change of LED doesn’t matter. Would love it in WW.
If you want a StVZO compliant light, you are not allowed to modify it. The Lumintop B01 is not certified to be StVZO compliant and cannot be used on public roads in Germany.
I used to live in Germany and simply bought a STVZO copliant bicycle light, mounting a flashlight onto the handlebar is equally not permitted because the lacking cut-off and beam wouldn’t be allowed like that. This 2000mAh light shall be legal to use in Germany.
Apologies, I forgot to read your location on your profile.
I only read the legal requirement and assumed that you or someone you know needs this in Germany.
3× the output means more than 3× the heat, and that little beastie likely couldn’t handle it for very long before cooking or stepping down something fierce.
