I thought the same, I was surprised the press hadn’t noticed. I do hope he stops having ebike accidents, otherwise someone might decide to spoil the fun of responsible ebike users.

This is a really informative thread and a great forum, it's nice to see people helping each other. I'm nowhere near ready to try OSF on my TSDZ2 (I haven't even mounted it to the bike yet :)) but I wondered if the STLINK adaptor can be plugged into the lighting part of my Y cable, whilst...

Good point, I was only looking at peak discharge current... I'll need to check the graphs. Do you have an opinion about welders? I can see £40 occasional use might work ones, and £250 probably reliable ones, but not much in the middle.

I'm very much a DIY type of person and like to 'think outside the box'. I agree that the cells are the most important factor, so I've been thinking of building my own packs. Hence my original question: Which small/lightweight/cheap battery cases should I use? I've been looking at empty bottle...

I'm just starting to convert our family bikes to e-bikes, and would like to use a battery format that's good value for money and will be around for a few years. What do you think are the most universal batteries I should be looking at? I'm interested in lightweight 36V packs, around 8-13Ah. Are...

When I follow the link, then select shipping from Germany, it adds shipping and VAT giving a total of £161.73 What am I doing wrong?
