Useful information for those who consider folded size important for travelling etc, it might be 'bigger' but how much bigger ............

My folded eBrompton (16" Wheels) is 35cm wide x 62cm high x 60cm deep. I keep it folded under a table in my workshop, it took me 20 seconds to measure the dimensions.

Put it in a corner and measure the limits with a 1M rule, or use a stick and pencil.

Never heard of them causing problems. I have never had an issue myself, but I have only been riding Bromptons for 20+ years.

It would be an interesting comparison if you were to measure it, its only a few seconds to fold\unfold.

So as a comparison, what are the folded dimensions of your Dahon ?

Know the feeling. At £3,500 its about £500 more than a standard electric Brompton.

So not withstanding that the battery monitor in a KT controller might be a tad confused by an LFP and not show the correct charge state, is there anyone building eBike batteries with these cells, even maybe custom ?

There is apparently a bill in the Lords on the subject of Lithium Ion battery Safety; https://researchbriefings.files.parliament.uk/documents/LLN-2024-0050/LLN-2024-0050.pdf It was reported on Radio 4 PM this morning, one bit of information mentioned as published in the report above was; "The...

Of course it is. I actually have a third motor wheel, but I need to do a repair on the motor and change the rim.

I have two motor wheels, one bought from TOPBIKEKIT on Ali and another from a previous Swytch kit. Standard cables, inline brake sensor, KT controller, PAS and LCD4 display. Battery is a custom build 10S1P of 21700 cells, although when I get round to it and change the front controller\battery...

So my DIY eBrompton is about 3Kg lighter, folds smaller, uses standard easily replaceable parts and cost around 1/3rd the price. $7,500 for a heavy 15Kg bike is a lot.

Indeed, and its very clear from the series that she has a good understanding of the details of the evidence of the case. The part of Maggies speech about the need for 'de-regulation' is in Episode 2 05:00.

300 ? Sounds like the risk of a refrigerator fire is far greater than the risk of a battery fire. But only 300 refrigerator fires is a small number, so no worries maybe.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c62305qx946o I heard years of Grenfell testimony. Here's why the disaster could have been prevented By: Kate Lamble She says at the beginning; "To understand how a refurbishment could have created the possibility of such a disaster, we have to look at what...

Ah thank you. Fortunately there are few refrigerator fires per year, so no worries to some.

Will the 'carrera vengeance' be used on UK roads ?

The Grenfell fire was I seem to recall caused by a domestic refrigerator catching fire, apparently despite the electrical safety standards that apply to refrigerators and other domestic appliances.

Absolutely agree. The public really do need reassurance that the issues are being dealt with in a practical manner and not simply ignored. The approach that some are taking as in 'no problem here' is reminiscent of Maggies approach to fire risks, in that Government should trust businesses...
