    Hello from South Glos

    You can program more or less any BBS01/02 but beware of the limitations and voiding of your guarantee. The original program that Bafang loaded into the motor is safe and very usable. You can change the number of assist levels through the normal setup screen without needing the programming lead...

    Hello from South Glos

    The 36V BBS01B is rock solid. The 48V version gives you about 30% more torque thanks to higher voltage so more suitable if you are heavy (18+st) or have very steep hills.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    European attention to fostering small manufacturing and engineering firms is something of a tradition that we don't have here. In the UK, business rates kill small opportunities.

    I needed a tool for our workshop last week. I went to see a guy in Grainger Rd Industrial Estate in Southend for help. He worked in about 1500sqft workshop for god knows how many years. We worked with him for years but this was the first time I went to see him myself. The workshop is properly...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Markets expect BoE to match US Feds rates. Andrew Bailey did not, so they hammer the pound. That suits the government because that helps exporters. We have to show that we don't live above our means, that is more difficult for any government.

    A strange battery problem

    The cause is likely due to one of the blocks in the serial chain is damaged. As soon as there is a load, the faulty block's voltage drops, the BMS will cut off the output. put the battery on a load directly between B+ and B-, then check the voltage of the balance wires to B-.

    Thinking of buying a second folding ebike ?

    it's pedelec only, Fit the pedal sensor and the LCD, attach the wheel and the bag, connect up. It should take about 30 minutes. there is no throttle on the Brompton kit because we can't fit the brake sensors and keep the cables tidy.

    it's a lot better than pretending that they should have claimed asylum in France or it's the French government's job to stop the crossings.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the French tow back at present nearly half the number of rubber boats. The key point is to find them in the first place as soon as they are on the beach. British government pays for drones and wages of the police but we need to not just keep them work the coasts but also have the capacity and...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    your solutions break European human rights conventions. Just pay the bounty. There will be plenty who will tell the bounty hunters where the boats will be. It's a fraction of the cost of putting the Albanians up in hotels.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The solution is to pay a bounty on each rubber boat. French police has to be paid enough so they can buy plenty of drones to police something like 250 miles of coastline, then have the fast boats to go out and tow the rubber boats back. If you spend £2bn a year on french police, you'll soon stop...

    Investigating Lithium battery generators

    I think the baseline is to use the battery to buy cheaper electricity and use it in daytime. It is particularly suitable for small offices where computers account for up to £500 per person per year and heating is often electric.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    BJ is forever associated with brexit. More and more politicians will blame brexit for anything wrong with the tories: adverse economic conditions, low productivity, poor public services, schools, hospitals, trains, roads, inflation, lack of opportunities etc and of course the NI protocol that...

    Battery pack re-celling

    Most ready made bikes have proprietary casing. The cellpacks are glued to the case, making recelling near impossible. If you want a friendly pack, you have to start with a kit. Most batteries that come as part of a kit don't have proprietary anti-tampering. You can remove the old cellpack and...
