    Who is the manufacturer, if I were to make a replacement power label I would need to put that on, do I now need to include the max speed cutoff of 15.5mph on there too?

    Balancing a 4S lipo pack with a Turnigy Accucell-6 charger ?

    +1 on the BC168 recommended to me too by d8veh. It is so simple to use as you only need to connect the balance wires and set the charge/discharge voltage to whatever you want within the allowable safe range and set the charge amps.

    Balancing a 4S lipo pack with a Turnigy Accucell-6 charger ?

    There are youtube videos about repairing similar problems. To get the 2.5v low cell to charge you have to charge the pack slow for a while using nimh mode until the low cell gets about 3.2v or basically high enough for the lipo mode to recognise it. Then balance charge on lipo mode at 0.1a for...

    Best Donor Mountain Bikes for Oxy Drive 13a

    You know I would really like one of those smaller bafang cst motors to make a wheel up with as mine is a heavy larger diameter but unfortunately never got a reply from oxydrive so I presume I would have to buy the whole kit. Shame (unless d8veh can flex some muscle? wink wink nudge nudge)

    Broken spoke - what sort of nipples do others use?

    I built a wheel with BMSB 12g spokes and that only last a few hundred miles as they kept snapping. I quickly switched to some 14g ones and have done many thousands miles with no problem, so your problem may just be your current 12g spokes.

    13s lipo bms needed

    Please let us know how you get on, I would be interested in having a go at this idea in the future. My problem, I will have a 4s and a 6s I found I could not parallel charge so ended up getting a second charger to do them them both at the same time. I haven't actually got into using them yet though.
