    Lithum Sulphur battery announcement

    I used to get very excited by the new battery tech breakthrough annoucements but now I am very jaded and cynical - all seems to be vapourware. Even the Ryden cell by PowerPlus JApan. That one I thought would happen as it said it could use exiting factory setups - they were going to do a run of...

    ADVICE - Anyone repaired a 36v/20Ah Li-Ion BMS Battery /

    D8veh is yer man But you'll need to cut open the shrunk wrap and get to the bms circuit board. You'll also need a multimeter If you do this and take a photo of the bms and post here web can advise of readings to take and how Cheers Edit- my local maplin had a really nice digital one at...

    Jeremy Clarkson Suspended

    I'm less convinced by that. Why ? Well not showing the remaining episodes hurts only fans Why punish them ? If they really wanted too punish Clarkson then sack him It is quite possible a bbc producer just threw all his toys out the pram And didn't think consequences through Time will tell

    I've been STOLEN, AGAIN!! :(

    Cwah- that totally sucks. I feel for you for the work that went into your battery even more than costs. As well as other solutions do you think a couple of small cheap lipo bricks could be used for those short distance social evening occasions? And the big one used for commuting/touring when...

    safe to transport laptop in pannier with rear hub motor right next to it?

    its all really just a personal risk assessment tied into a bit of luck. I've travelled round the world for 1.5 years with a ancient iBook chucked into a backpack. It coped with everything thrown at it from -20c to + 45c, from 100 humidity to near zero, boucning around 3rd world country buses...

    safe to transport laptop in pannier with rear hub motor right next to it?

    My view is that shocks are a bigger cause for concern in damaging hard drives (unless you have modern solid state drive). It is very easy for a knock to damage head/arm and destroy a harddisk. Peronally I'd say a laptop is safer in a backpack where the bikes front suspension and your personal...
