    Battery Wiring before I blow myself up!

    I really appreciate your help @wheeliepete . So what is that residual voltage? I have another battery and there is no voltage flowing through it when switched off. Also weird that it is exactly half. Does that also mean when switched off if the PINS connect then it will create the circuit...

    Battery Wiring before I blow myself up!

    Hey Guys I did a post a while back about trying to switch a battery into another case. I thought I would start a new thread as it has been a while and there might be new people who can help. The original post is here Original Post So I need some help before I blow myself up. I removed the...

    Battery Mounts and Cases

    Hello all So I got the battery case and mount and they are very similar as a few of you have mentioned. I think I can actually swap the whole lot over. Including the charging point and the switch. I will however need to lengthen the wires to the pins. Hopefully all will go well.

    Experiences with Open Source Firmware on the Tongsheng TSDZ2

    I have had this exact same thing. it has only happened once and it was about 40 miles into a ride. It’s never happened again despite putting a few miles on the clock. flicking the switch on the battery and back in again sorted it out. I mess with the firmware settings a lot so maybe I can...

    Battery Mounts and Cases

    Here are the photos. To me the cases are identical. But the mounts are different. Ideally I want both to fit the mount that is on the bike. I opened the battery to have a little look, but it seemed more complex than I was expecting. Plus the issue is that I still dont have the relevant case...

    Battery Mounts and Cases

    I have 2 Ebikes and a 17.5Ah battery, originally I bought a separate mount so that I could swap the battery between bikes. However I since decided to get a second battery that could be used as a spare and allow me to take friends out on it. I searched high and low and eventually found a battery...

    Best frames for fitting Bafang bbs02 kit

    Most of the Halfords Carreras seem to route the cables under the bottom bracket. Despite what people say, I find it is always too tight fit But building ebikes makes you artist with cables. Rerouted cables is not that hard, especially that on most old bikes cables need replacing anyway

    Battery Mounts

    I need some out of the box advice! (no pun intended) My battery saga continues. I purchased a 17.5Ah 48V Hailong battery. Its great and works well. I have 2 Ebikes, so my bright idea was to buy a smaller one for when friends come over and also double it up as a spare if I do some longer...

    Where would you recommend buying e-conversion kits from?

    I have brought from Greenenergy and PSWPower, both sent from China through Ali Express. It took a while to arrive, but they were pleasant to deal with, GreenEnergy even whatsapp'd me a few times to give me little updates. Not sure about warranty, but seeing as the stuff is pretty much 2/3 of the...

    850c or 860c for TSDZ2?

    I do agree with people here. The OSF is definitely better, but you have to tinker a lot with the settings to get it right for how you want to ride. Trying to programme it through the stock display is just rubbish. Just plug the cable back in. But you dont really need a new display. Really once...

    Tongsheng TSDZ2 review and build tips.

    Hey All This is a great thread, I should have read this before. I bought a TSDZ2 and the plan was also to get a Bafang for my other bike. In the end I bought 2 Tongshengs as they are so cool. As I have 2 bikes it might help people even more (1 whyte hybrid and a Boardman 8 year old mtb) Both...

    2 years on with the TSDZ2....

    Hi Tony Have you ever put the open source firmware on? It probably would fix your issue and i guess it mike effect any warranty with Whoosh. But it has totally changed the whole feel of my bike. It could be interesting for you to see how it feels with a bit of time away from it

    Experiences with Open Source Firmware on the Tongsheng TSDZ2

    Hey there so what I did was change the setting to hybrid mode and fiddle. i unticked the street power limit enabled. Or you can change the power settings to higher than 250 if you then fiddle with the ratios on power and torque mode then you can get something that suits. I like level 1 to be...

    Experiences with Open Source Firmware on the Tongsheng TSDZ2

    In case anyone is following this thread a little update! I made a massive school boy error and had forgotten to change the "street mode power limit" box as it was set to 250W. Once I changed this OMG, massive difference. I am using hybrid mode and just fiddling with the levels. But changing...

    Experiences with Open Source Firmware on the Tongsheng TSDZ2

    Thanks I tried hybrid mode the other day. Most of the settings seem to give a tonne of power at the low settings, even if you set to really low values on both torque and power mode. The higher values dont seem to make a huge difference. I am just wondering if I got something else set that is...
