Maybe it helps fight off the gremlins attempts to destroy all electrical devices I own…

Unfortunately cardboard wouldn’t have worked very well here…

Did you take care about polarity, when it failed?
The dynamo has one wire on ground and lights do so too.
So if you exchange some of the wires, the light will be cut short.

Very impressive especially the final version of the deluxe switch housing unit. Obviously early training with cardboard and sticky-backed plastic has paid off.
