    Yose Power Triangle Battery Recall

    Well, one of the worst things was that the main positive lead was made of comparatively thin wire and it ran almost in direct contact with the cells, bar a thin layer of double sided tape. The main fuse was 50A and the BMS was a high current rating too. If someone had drawn more than about 25 to...

    Yose Power Triangle Battery Recall

    A similar style, but not exactly the same.

    Yose Power Triangle Battery Recall

    A while back a friend of mine bought a triangle 21Ah battery from Yose Power via eBay. It stopped working and he gave it to me as it was going to cost too much to ship it back. I opened it up and was quite shocked about how badly it was put together, quite a few potentially serious flaws and the...

    So whats the fork of choice then ?

    I know nothing about suspension forks, I normally avoid them like the plague, so ignore this if it is a load of crap...but I saw this on Bike Discount in Germany and it seems they ship to the UK at reasonable rates: https://www.bike-discount.de/en/rockshox-30-silver-26-tk-coil-100

    DFT consultation on increase of 250W limit to 500W

    The "125 W" motor probably has a zero missing off the end of the label! :D

    DFT consultation on increase of 250W limit to 500W

    Well it was a tongue in cheek suggestion (it's a question that comes up now and then and is then quickly kicked back into the long grass). I would be interested though to see what Flecc says. I don't recall seeing anything saying you couldn't have more than one motor.

    Just walk around staring into your phone like everyone else and you'll stop noticing and worrying about such things around you...

    DFT consultation on increase of 250W limit to 500W

    Another advantage of a 500W limit is you could have two wheel drive at 250 W each :)

    DFT consultation on increase of 250W limit to 500W

    Why use an image of the British Isles when Eire is in the EU and doesn't follow UK law and I don't think the proposed law will even apply in NI?

    DFT consultation on increase of 250W limit to 500W

    One thing that hasn't been mentioned so far is the school run. A huge amount of traffic is caused by this. Predominately, it is still the case that this is done by women in the household's second car. If households had a cargo bike instead of a second car, congestion could be significantly...

    BMS Balancing "optional"

    Have you noticed how a lot of BMS devices these days are not even offering a balance option? You have to ask for it as an extra it seems :)

    Front ebike controller powered light recommendation

    I'm sure your setup is carefully and tastefully done :) but I find even with only 200 Lm lights projected onto the ground 15 feet in front still gives a lot of stray light that others have complained is dazzling and these days I tend to do quite a bit on shared paths, staying away from roads...

    Front ebike controller powered light recommendation

    Thanks for the recommendation, it looks nice although it might be overkill for what I need. Something a little brighter than the stock Yose power unit, but not blindingly bright is what I need. The other thing is the mounting. Ideally I'd like to have something to go on the mudguard anchoring...

    Front ebike controller powered light recommendation

    I've ordered one of these. It comes with bare ends so I can wire it into the battery output as that seems to be the safest option. Shame as it means another cable running along the frame instead of being able to use the connector into the controller.

    Front ebike controller powered light recommendation

    The LED inside one of my Yose power kits stopped workng properly last week. It still came on, but very dim. I swapped out the LED module from another kit and the headlamp worked fine. When the LED was pressed on its PCB, it would stop all illumination. So it looks like it was not bonded...

    Checking Multimeter Calibration at Home

    I would be worried about how much of that data gets sent to China for Xi's purposes.

    They got the bike and the battery as it was attached at the time.

    3-D Printer

    This is a battery box with supports I printed for the contents of a Yose power 15 Ah silverfish, that had a failed switch and BMS. I was going to write this up as a thread on the forum, but the bike got stolen one week after I finished the project, I didn't even get a chance to take a photo...

    Q100 motor – parameter P1 explained – speed alignment

    Tried out 163 for P1 today. Didn't help, as with other settings I've tried, it just ignored the set max speed and ran as fast as it could go. P1 of 88 sort of worked, it cut out according to the set speed, but it was not as smooth in terms of moderating power around 25 kph to maintain a steady...
