Magnic Microlights are the world’s smallest non-contact dynamos, that are integrated together with electronics and lighting system in the brake shoes.Magnic Microlights are powered by contactless rim dynamos via Eddy Current Induction and don’t need extra adapters because they are integrated in bicycle brake shoes.

Beneath generator technology one important aspect is the optimal choice of LED + lens which gives a big advantage compared to normal LED bicycle lights.

For the Magnic Microlights we have chosen the newest extreme density – Cree LED. The most efficient high power LED with minimum size (1.6 mm x 1.6mm compared to 3.45mm x 3.45mm as used in many LED biycle lights).

Magnic Microlights don’t have the strongest generators (because cyclists should not feel anything!) but they have the best light efficiency on the market: 200 Lumen/Watt. Magnic Microlights have an effective brake light function. When you pull the brakes the distance between rim and generator decreases resulting in higher generator power and higher light output. The brake light works precisely and is a clear signal for subsequent traffic.
