I recently bought a Union generator/headlight/taillight set, and it
worked fine for a couple of months... nice bright lights and not too much
generator drag.  Then the generator died while I was riding;  I was going
pretty fast, and the generator seemed to be very hot afterwards.
Has this happened to other people?  Is it possible to fix the generator?
Any recommendations about other types (such as the kind that contacts
the face of the tire, rather than the side)?
