I tried comparing it on the Grin motor simulator to a...

    Help! Battery Mounting Ideas

    I think the Samsung 21700 -50E celled batteriy bag is very light for a 36v 15Ah capacity battery, 2.2kg, the equivalent seat post battery would be a bit heavier and I like the fact I can put the controller in the battery bag., the same as @StuartsProjects . The disadvantage is the battery is...

    Help! Battery Mounting Ideas

    Thanks everyone very much. So what I think I am going to do is get an L shaped sheet metal "bracket" and glue it to the inside of the bag with some zip ties running behind the bracket(so they will also get glued in place). I will then screw the bracket (and attached bag) to the front mounting...

    Would you like to do an international comparison on that (per capita not by GDP) ? We're nothing special. All comparable countries are spending more on health - especially with an aging population The Kings Fund ( which isn't sponsored by dodgy US money ) has a very good summary of research...

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    Why Is it only US funded think tanks (with sponsors that want to cash in on breaking up the NHS) and their tame "journalists" at the telegraph and spectator that compare health systems as proportion of GDP , I wonder ? It's conflating 2 things, why is our GDP so poor and how is our health...
