    Ping battery rebuild

    On the bms, what does b- goto and what does p- goto. I only have 2 black wires now so I am not sure which one goes directly to the battery and which one goes to the bike

    Ping battery rebuild

    One time i was going along and the bag (which was ventelated) with the original ping BMS on, completely melted, my bag caught fire and i got stranded 15 miles away from my office. Hence my worry with the reconnection. The BMS i have works just about but it is a bit charred as the soldering on...

    Ping battery rebuild

    Well i purchased a 20ah battery and it is overkill and 10ah will do just fine, it takes up too much space and makes the bike unstable and heavy. So with two batteries i can leave one at home, but for a long trip i can take both with me and plug them in. I wouldn't mind actually having to swap...

    Ping battery rebuild

    Just posting this in here as i am not sure if its the correct place, Classifieds seemed a little premature. My 20ah ping battery could ideally do with being split in half to give me 2 48v 10ah batteries, with the option to connect them together to give me range if required. Does anyone live...

    Cyclone 500watt motor wanted

    Wasn't aware they did different types. I assume it's clockwise since it's mounted on the bike downtube pointing right

    Stump Camera

    probably a good idea to do that, keep myself semi protected. I imagine the chinese haven't thought about copying it yet, since they aren't at all interested in cricket, so i have the advantage :)

    Stump Camera

    I think powerwise i should be ok, if indded the 280mah battery lasts for 2 hours, the 2400mah unit Colin mentioned, 2 of them will do nicely and provide ample power (the wifi option uses heaps of power) In answer to your question, over open ground its actually got quite a reasonable range for...

    Stump Camera

    Ultimately i have a whole stump to play with. I had a chat with a manufacturer in china and for a minimum order of 10 units they will build my little creation for me and all i have to do is drill a stump on a lathe. One nice product this company has is all the regular DVR recording camera in...

    Stump Camera

    well we sometimes have to stop for the trains as they go past and they are a bit of a distraction. But we use a pink ball to help when ferreting around in the bushes. Sight screen would be nice, or maybe even a well prepared wicket! The guy bowling is actually pretty fast for our club, and he...

    Stump Camera

    yeah, i had the same thought as well. i looked at the level of the cameras they use in the regular cricket and they seem to use wide angle lens, which for budget reasons i can't use. But moving it a fair bit further down is a good idea.

    Stump Camera

    Here is my first cricket related test, it got bashed a few times but it still works. I should have deleted the other tests from the 2GB memory card then i would have got more than 13mins of footage. But it seems sturdy enough and produces decent enough footage, adds a new element to the game...

    Stump Camera

    Well i finally got my sample camera and it uses a rechargable 280mah 3.7v battery which is good for 2 hours apparently. I will need to take a look and see what i can implement to extend the life out. The quality is not too bad, but i can see i will have a problem with storage. Since nothing can...

    Stump Camera

    I guess i never thought about other uses, but your right. Anything where an inexpensive camera on a stick is required for small clubs, it could be perfect.

    Stump Camera

    I thought about this, but many teams have highlights or want to see footage of particularly good games, also handy if its a wide len to see what the bowler or batsmen is doing at the crease, maybe to help people improve their game. I think its not going to appeal to a huge market, but if i...

    New controller

    This is the controller that one of the guys have suggested, looks quite good from a laymans perspective. Any thoughts? Endless-sphere.com • View topic - 6x4110 Mini Monster Programmable Controller LYEN Edition $79

    New controller

    I am after a 48v controller to replace my 36v one. Does anyone have a good suggestion? I saw the progrmmable golden motor items which you can mess with by using a USB cable, does anyone have an experience with these? Seems lots of the controllers are very expensive, i am happy to get one...

    Ping Battery

    That was my plan with this thread, to put as much info up as possible, it may help others to come to a comclusion about where they get their battery from, and some basic troubleshooting steps. I will order a new BMS as mine is fried, i looked a little closer and some of the legs are missing...

    Ping Battery

    I had a little problem on the w2ay into work on Tuesday, the BMS overheated and the plastic surround caught fire. My turnigy meter still shows charge in the battery so all good on that front, just the BMS thats a little bit charred. Here is a picture, just trying to figure out what i can do...
