Schmidt Nabendynamo - From Peter White Cycles
The Schmidt Dynamo front hub or SON (Schmidt's Original Nabendynamo) weighs 1.5 lbs and has significantly less drag than either tire driven dynamos or any other hub dynamo. Made by Wilfried Schmidt Maschinenbau in Tübingen, Germany, the hub is quiet and reliable, and is designed to give at least 50,000 kilometers of trouble free riding between servicings. The hub powers several different six volt headlights including Schmidt's own E6 halogen models, the Schmidt Edelux LED headlamp, both halogen and LED headlamps (as well as taillights) made by Busch & Müller in Meinerzhagen, Germany, Supernova lights from Germany, Spanninga lights from France, and Inolight LED headlights from Inoled in Ochsenhausen, Germany.

Are you thinking of getting one? If so, I'd love to build it up for you to get some more practice.
