I have tried both the Dynamator and the Powerlite and both have failed. The latter over volting and burning out the electronic ignition module. On returning to Eurolec I was told no fault had been found but an updated rotor had been fitted. Both failed in the summer heat of France during 1000 mile trips. I carry the Dynamo regulator and points in the boot so it was not a great problem. I wonder if excessive heat affects the electronic regulators. Because of the steering rack the crankshaft fan has been replaced with a Kenlowe in front of the rad. I believe Robert Grinter has had problems with these but has found one that has proved to be reliable. For now I am sticking with the Dynamo and a separate electronic regulator unit from Classic Dynamo and Regulator Conversions, which is built into the original case.
