    E-Mopeds, harshly judged

    Is that Layer Marney Hill? I'm looking for some hills to pedal up, as the assisted cycling is quite brutal and hits around 30mph on the flat. I want to do some short bursts of assisted cycling up hills to get my heart a bit toned up. I only get about 20 miles out of a full charge so all the way...

    I've bought this one http://batt-man.com/batt-man-DashBoard I will quit likely be back with lots of questions when it arrives.

    Current best way to monitor battery time left?

    It's logically got to be 4 LEDs , then you would know when to head home...but logic doesn't always prevail. This is kind of catering for those 'most people' ( me included) http://batt-man.com/batt-man-DashBoard. What's the situation with say an hour charge, do Lipos do an 80% charge in a...

    Current best way to monitor battery time left?

    Yes I am out on it now. You're certainly not going to break any speed records but it pedals. Not so easy for me though.

    well the spare battery for my bike would be over £400? (48v 16aH Lipo) and I am not quite sure where I would put it on the bike.

    Current best way to monitor battery time left?

    shame, that's the sort of clear display I need. Guess it wouldn't work any way because my battery is 48V. Reckon I might go with the Speedict. It looks fairly simple to setup?

    Wish my bike had the BMS panel yours has, that's all I need is a clear battery readout. Nothing else, simpler the better.

    Current best way to monitor battery time left?

    How about one of these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-48V-Battery-indicator-meter-gauge-tri-colors-for-Car-Truck-Golf-Cart-/281330029676?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item418093946c Looks like the kind of simple read out I need as long as it will do the job?

    Current best way to monitor battery time left?

    Hi, I have just bought an Iped lite electric Moped/bike and my one big issue is the lack of straightforward battery monitoring. There is a readout of current voltage but I am never really sure what it is telling me as regards time left on the battery. It is crucial to me to know this as this...

    E-Mopeds, harshly judged

    Well I guess we're into the realms of relativity here. I mean I am 14 stone, which is overweight but I'm sure there's a lot heavier than me wanting to climb hills. It certainly isn't going slow when it gets up those hills. In general when people come to visit they consider the hills in this town...

    E-Mopeds, harshly judged

    Been browsing on here and researching all over the net for a while before buying and I've got to correct the view on here about the E-mopeds only being good on the flat. It simply just not true. I bought one of the bikes the original poster asked about here...
