What's the best way to add a battery like device to a dynamo light (lemmy.world)

Hello everyone, I bought a bottle dynamo for my bicycle with a rear and front light. Though I have one little tweak that I would like to add and that's a way to keep it light up for about 1 minute (at least 30 sec) without pedaling. I thought of putting a capacitor in the circuit to store some energy but I would like what do you all think of it ?

Thank you for your time and have a nice day you all !

Indeed, 2 pair of 2 wires so 4 wires can be connected to the dynamo.

I will try that, I need to find some proper diode then find the capacitor or buy it and I should be good. I'll keep you in touch if I manage to find the parts. Thank you
