Noteworthy is the extra circuit board on the right. Because we deal with five power sources here (the rechargeable NiMH battery, the dynamo, a solar panel, USB port, and adapter jack), all power related functions are on this sub chassis. It also includes a blue LED that burns during charging of the battery. A missed opportunity here is the use as a flash torch. The image taken from the top side (right) shows that a ferrite antenna is placed under the circuit board, and you can also see the solar panel and the green battery there.
