    Battery charging 101

    If your 48v battery is 15ah then that is 720wh of fuel to use, in my heyday of riding with a bbs01 I would get 52 miles from a 36v, 14.5 battery which is 522wh. My usage was though mainly using the lower PAS settings . Can you link to the battery you are using , also one needs to buy a...

    Vulcan e bb

    Show us a pic to be sure but one would think a Std english thread type, these are approx. a max 33.9mm in dia. For the shell width simply measure the BB shell under neath it will be 63 or 73mm, for overall length BB simple put a tape on it or a calliper to measure from axle end to axle end...

    Hoping to increase driver passing distance at night, I've glued front and rear reflectors to my wing mirrors.

    I wouldn't put a bet on it , plenty of folks driving with very poor eye sight. Some are so short sighted they can't see anything pass the wing mirror.

    Battery

    The back of the softpack suggest from the slight bulge a BMS will be fitted, it would be bad if they did not have one. Issue I see is there are no cell specs or pack discharge specs.

    1st Build With Reclaimed Batteries

    Which BMS is a hard one. The DALY W/P ones are a bit iffy, my one failed on my HG2 build but I replaced it like for like. I have another to try next time which is tiny with a sw. On ES one guy berates the DALY's as sh*te. I also have a smart bt/uart model which one day will get used, worth...

    Battery charging 101

    The charger led usually turns from Red to Green and then balancing can occur so some may need a half hour or so to balance, the best way of knowing is measure the end voltage it should be 54.6v for 48v nominal battery.

    New battery needed for my Carrera Crossfire Ebike (2019 model)

    One suspects the cutting out is due to a sensitive BMS or heat sensor in the battery. Good luck with the new battery and hope it works well for you.

    1st Build With Reclaimed Batteries

    Problem is even if they haven't been used is that they have undergone a heat process due to the previous spot welding, one expects for the price they are good value if you want to save a few quid.

    1st Build With Reclaimed Batteries

    With reclaimed cells one has to still clean off the old spot welds with a dremmel tool so the contact area is flat otherwise one will get excessive sparking and burn marks when re -welding, the small void between the buss material to the cell caused by the old spot welds make for a messy job...

    Considering they are canbus one can't quibble at the price, which is a very good one at that. I doubt you will see much depreciation in capacity if they have been stored at 3 bars which is likely around storage volatge value. The cells will be grade A ones and not a lesser quality grade cell.
