    Watts Up cabling connector any suggestions?

    Thanks d8veh and jbond, the mod sounds good in theory but i'm not confident enough to carry out the work :o tangent, does yours run up to the handlebars, and if it does, do you reckon the length of cable affects the accuracy of the reading?

    Watts Up cabling connector any suggestions?

    Thanks banbury frank and jbond, i'll mount it as close to the battery and controller as i can get. Do you recommend any plug in connectors or would crimping the wires together suffice?

    Watts Up cabling connector any suggestions?

    I've got a Turnigy Watts Up meter arriving soon. I plan to mount the display on the handlebars, with the cabling running along the frame to the battery/contoller, which is just in front of the rear wheel (Cyclamatic) It looks like the Watts up meter has a pos and a neg wire exiting the unit...

    Which kit, and hydraulic front brakes an issue?

    Here's some further info on anyone thinking of fitting a front hub motor. No idea how respected or knowledgeable in the electric bike field these posters are, but certainly an eye opener. Endless-sphere.com • View topic - 350W geared hub on fork with suspension?

    Which kit, and hydraulic front brakes an issue?

    Chat with BMS Battery on the 'Live Support' feature. Not always online due to lots of Chinese tea breaks :( , and don't forget the time difference. If you catch the right person, then they can speak pretty good english and have always answered all my questions ;) P.S. Looking at the website...

    Which kit, and hydraulic front brakes an issue?

    I'm certainly no expert, but i was going to use a powerful front hub on my summer build, but changed my mind. Mainly due to a lot of research and gut feeling that a powerful front hub wouldn't be a good idea. Check out the Endless Sphere website for lots of info on this, especially the use of...

    BMSBATTERY can this be right???

    1) Did it include everything for a complete setup? Any problems? 2) Was the battery a rack mounted type and did you order the rack? 3) Did it all come at once? As i said before, some mixed views on this company. Nice to hear the good experiences :)

    BMSBATTERY can this be right???

    Not ordered yet, but wary about this company. Heard some good news stories and bad, so i'll probably do the same as you squishydomain. BPM hillclimber without the battery. £200 is easier to swallow if it all goes Pete Tong. I do like the aluminium cased type batteries for their aesthetic...

    Ping battery contents?

    Why do you state unfortunate GT3. Is it because the battery is split into 2 separate units and you didn't realise it came like that :confused:

    Thanks Bob, it's good to know that Li Ping is dedicated to designing his packs to be the best, and your answer indeed inspires confidence in his products.

    Ping battery contents?

    I didn't want to be cheeky and ask Ping direct, as we already know his batteries are top quality, but does anyone know if he uses branded cells in his packs?

    for sale used wisper 705SE

    I have to agree with you there flecc. With a used car you have a fair idea of the mileage, unless tampered with of course. Unfortunately there is no way of knowing the real mileage on a bike. Anyone can spruce up a tired looking bike with some of these wonder sprays. The battery is the...

    Bike light: How many lumens?

    Some juicy looking lights Frank. I did tinker with the idea of running some lights off the bike battery. Then i thought that if the battery conks out, then i'll be left riding in the pitch black :(

    Bike light: How many lumens?

    I spotted this on eBay. I like the idea of the 2 separate lights for a little more light adjustability. CREE Bicycle Bike Cycle Head / Front And Rear Light Set on eBay (end time 23-Feb-11 20:55:46 GMT) Although i can't touchy feely, they do look pretty robust. Would anyone else buy these?

    Bike light: How many lumens?

    I'm after a bike light that is better than the ' be seen ' type, but also doesn't fry people in my path. It needs to light up fairly well maintained roads and cycle paths, so i don't need to pick out every stone and pebble. Considering those mega lumen lights cost a fortune, what is a sensible...

    Why can't we all just get along???

    I never saw any problems on the forums of 'Stamp Lovers' and 'Donkey Riders UK' :D

    Why can't we all just get along???

    I've noticed a few threads on this forum recently, that have descended into what can only be described as childish name calling, with some slanderous content thrown in for good measure. You know who you are :mad: Can we just stop this please, and get back on track to providing sensible...
