You can use any 36v battery, as long as you have a place to put it on your bike. Ideal is to put a switch and a 30amp fuse between the battery and the controller. To make a fuse, just get one of those flat 30 amp fuses for a car, and solder male and female bullet connectors on a short piece of wire each side, and insulate it. You can use the Sunlova switch.

Would you like me to have a go at repairing your battery (no cost from me)? If so, send me a pm with some contact details.

LifePo4 batteries

We will have spare LifePo4 batteries available during June,price £208.80.....if you google LifePo4 look at the advantages of this battery type-1500 cycles,very safe,low self discharge,no memory effect,tolerant temperature rang etc etc. Lower energy density but only 20% heavier than LiMh
