    the prototype is already shipped, so no more changes for now. I may have to start over again from the helpful comments posted in this thread. Thank you all.

    World’s 280 million electric bikes and mopeds are cutting demand for oil far more than electric cars

    Hunt / nsandi offered 6.02% 1 year bond. That sold out quickly. Tax cuts will sadly work for the tories.

    World’s 280 million electric bikes and mopeds are cutting demand for oil far more than electric cars

    I can't see how sunak can fail. The whole of uk freedom loving press will spread the message of tax cut far and wide before the next election. Just read this: Jeremy Hunt sought to raise more money in a similar way in March, by increasing the targets on NS&I premium and savings bonds for the...

    Converting from Swytch to standard equipment

    you can replace the battery with one that has more capacity like a 36V 15AH or 20AH and keep the rest like they are. It's an easy 15 minute job. Soldering is not required.

    World’s 280 million electric bikes and mopeds are cutting demand for oil far more than electric cars

    Don't you mean governments spend too much money instead of spending only what taxes bring in? Governments borrow from its citizens and from foreigners. Debts owing to foreigners, are called external debts. The US owes 25 trillions dollars externally. The UK 9.2 trillions Pounds. Not many...

    Converting from Swytch to standard equipment

    I can see in Cisco-Man and NealH the same tinkerer's spirit and ability but would the OP (rig the jig) be looking for the same flexibility?

    Converting from Swytch to standard equipment

    but the whole set is chosen to hang well together. You'll end up killing prematurely what has not been upgraded.

    Converting from Swytch to standard equipment

    I don't understand the advice given to the OP. He's got a fully working kit, he wants a bigger battery. Why change the controller?

    Help! Ebike battery voltage or controller issue?

    check your multimeter first. Make sure it is on DCV and not AC. If the LCD is off when the bike stops then it's a battery fault. Otherwise, the fault is elsewhere: controller or sensor or cables.

    Alternative motors for Eleglide City Crosser

    I think he uses too long bolts for his rotor. The motor comes with 6 M5x10 rotor bolts. He probably used 11mm bolts from his old wheel and ruined the speed sensor inside. The motor is repairable.

    Suggestion that delivery companies should check their riders bikes are legal !!!!!!

    The issue is caused by people who derestrict their bikes which voids the EN15194 conditions. Speed makes a huge difference in power requirement. You only need about 200W to maintain 15mph even when not pedalling or only ghost pedalling. So even if you have a 1000w bbshd fitted to your bike...

    World’s 280 million electric bikes and mopeds are cutting demand for oil far more than electric cars

    I reckon the reason we have been binging on public debts is because of the status of the Pound as reserve currency.

    Help! Conversion suggestions

    I started to ship to Ireland for about a year now. The paperwork is electronically done, so it's quite straightforward. You don't pay UK Vat, you'll pay Irish vat plus about 15 euros worth of fees. For northern Ireland, you pay only uk vat so you are treated same as UK addresses. Paperwork is...

    3-D Printer

    Generative AI is pretty close to be adapted to generate 3D models from what the computer sees. I was watching a demo video about a month ago. A month is a long time in the world of AI.

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    I thought you may be interested. Their idea is simple enough and cheap to build if you have plenty of wind and plenty of land. You harvest from a much larger area than a typical vawt. Their blades are big and cheap. The construction may be rickety but the physics is not dodgy.

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    The main thing is to stay informed. I can't wait for the time when people stop burning fossil fuel to generate electricity.
