PIt's the resting voltage. The running voltage would be about 1v lower, then you have to consider sag when you draw power, and lastly...

P30v imv is a bit too low to take a 36v battery , typically for better life I would look at 34v as a min voltage. Sag will be noticable...

PPeter.Bridge replied to the thread Yose miles.I was just surprised that resting 38.4V was only 1/3 -1/4 useful battery power left

PPeter.Bridge replied to the thread Yose miles.Surely he'll get more than that ? 42V to 38.4V = 3.6V voltage drop 38.4V- 30V 8.4V voltage drop - I thought he was less than halfway...

PPeter.Bridge replied to the thread Yose miles.So 36V 13A battery = 468Wh Legal pedal assisted e-bikes typically use between 5Wh per mile for very light assistance to 20Wh for more...

PI'll try that next time. I suppose it depends on how tight a fit the tyre is, that tyre looks a loose fit. Doubt it'd make fitting a...

PThat's mainly correct, but doesn't apply if you have a Brompton with Sun CR18 rim and want to fit Schwalbe Marathon Plus tyres. For...

PPeter.Bridge replied to the thread Wisper 705 Torque new battery & controller.No, you'd have to fit a cadence sensor

PThe one on the front luggage mount is the "frog" model which is I think now discontinued. I'll try to sort links to the current two, but...

Like.
My rule of thumb is I should be able to lift up my unpowered bike with one hand. I will then know for sure that I can load the bike in... -
PPeter.Bridge replied to the thread Wisper 705 Torque new battery & controller.Yep, that should work, get a new battery and rack, KT controller and display, you might be able to use the existing pedal sensor or get...

PThat's perfect 260 rpm to get good power and efficiency at 15 mph.

PPeter.Bridge replied to the thread Help! My next project.@saneagle if I got a 36v 201rpm akm-128cst and ran it at 48v, and set the controller to 18 amps max, would you think that is likely to...

PPeter.Bridge replied to the thread Help! My next project.I was thinking of using a 260 rpm akm-128cst for my gravel bike. I was thinking of running one marked as 201 rpm 36v at 48v but I just...

PThat's why you want the KT controller. Of course, you could get the Hitway and upgrade the controller to a KT for about £60, which would...
