    Batteries Charging Routine

    The batteries in the 6Ahr pack do have a 10A rated charge I beleive, so should be OK for 15A. As for routinely doing a 1hr charge, you would think that is going to 'quickly' reduce battery life, but then if you have a holder, easy enough to use your own charger.

    Batteries Charging Routine

    I had noticed that there are a number of adapters that allow you to use brand X batteries on brand Y power tools. Is there one of those adapters that accepts the Bosch 36V batteries that could be hacked to be used as a holder for an eBike ? Its the sort of thing you just assume; that someone...

    Batteries Charging Routine

    @Woosh, this is the setup I am thinking of for moving my eBrompton battery\controller bag from a handlebar bag to one on the Brompton block; Is there a plate or connector that could be fitted to that angled bracket to provide the connections for a Bosch power tool battery, they do a 36V...

    Batteries Charging Routine

    My thoughts too. But look at the current fall off for the 41V charge, same sort of currents but twice as long. At what voltage would the balancing normally start ?

    Time for a helmet camera?

    +1 And if you want further evidence of this, just watch all the brake lights come on as cars\vehicles approach a speed camera.

    Batteries Charging Routine

    On the charger in question the green light comes on when 280mA is flowing. Then about 0.13Ahr goes somewhere over the next 45 minutes .............

    Batteries Charging Routine

    On the charger I was using the green light comes on when the current drops below 280mA. In the case of the 42V charge it takes a further 45mins for the current to fall to zero. Whilst you can keep an eye on this with an in-line charge\discharge monitor, it would be good if chargers had a extra...

    Bike pumps and tyre pressure

    I find no real need to measure tyre pressures as such, just go by feel. On a new tyre\tube setup if I want to know what say 60psi feels like I just use a track pump at home to check. On the road I carry a Truflo MiniMTN high volume pump which I find quite effective for its size, 185cm long...
