It depends how old your Vengeance is: If it uses the older Phylion/Joycube SF-06 battery with the 5-pin SVD connector, then yes, it will (should) work (original charger part no. SSLC084V42X or the older JCLC084V42M). Newer Halfords bikes use different batteries with different connectors.

Powatechnic in Sheffield also do an interesting alternative with the SVD charger plug: it's faster charging at 3-amps rather than 2A (but costs more too).

Yes, that looks like the older Phylion SF-06 battery to me; there'll be a label on the underside of the battery.

It's possible. The smart BMS in the battery has two functions. A quick button press shows state of charge: SOC is based on voltage; 5 blue LEDS indicates the voltage is >38v (you could check this with a multimeter in the two end slots - a flat/discharged battery will measure <30v). A long button press shows state of health: SOH is based on usage over time (the BMS tracks the charge cycles/wear on the cells).

If you did a long press, 5-LED's on the battery could show it's healthy but the handle-bar display suggests it's low on charge.

Presumably you can't ride your bike again until you receive a replacement/working charger? Give the battery a full charge and see what happens.

It's the controller that needs to be compatible, not the motor. The LCD8H is a KT (Kunteng) LCD display and is only compatible with KT controllers.
i have found a similar display on ebay
202969231615

would this be compatible
No, it wouldn't. Your LED display is a Kingmeter/Lishui display and the one in the ebay listing is a Kunteng (KT) display. The two systems are not compatible.

I wouldn't call myself an "expert" regarding Lishui controllers, but the following LED display might be compatible:


I think that the 810 LED display might also be compatible:


You should seek confirmation from another member that is more familiar with the Lishui systems and can confirm the above. Maybe 'Woosh' will be able to do so.

The following 810 display has a waterproof connector:

If the display is made by King meter it will be compatible with Lishui controller.
The 780, 790, 810 etc,etc should all be compatible, as are the SW labelled ones and the likes of any that use the KM in the title like KM 575 or KM J-lcd.
But beware make sure it is made by KM as some displays look similar for instance the 880 display is made by KT and won't be compatible.
Make sure the led or lcd is voltage compatible.

A few KM displays compatible.

You can match any hub with any controller/led or Lcd as long as the latter three are 100% compatible, the hub doesn't care which electronics you use. Though Lishui and KT give less bother then other cheaper makes.
