Don't over fuss, it will be perfectly safe to use as per normal.

Last week it was shell and now this week BP announce obscene profiteering due to price rises, yet goverment stay quite and offer nothing about bringing them to book.

Exporting to a DNO is a waste of time for anyone with excess kwh produced, I would rather spend on a battery to keep the excess. With an offgrid system one can do that much easier. It is appalling and shows the contempt the DNO's have for customers with the piffling export rate then have the...

Sadly a mass produced poor battery build, simply gluing cells together isn't acceptable for a decent built battery, for separation, nowhere for any heat to disperse between cell to cell contact except to the next cell. Tbh the fact it is fully charged matters not really. When the welds are tough...

My priicng is the same 24/7 so no chance of being able to use any off peak rates.

If my motor sensor is correct the most I seen is 63c towing my trailer usng eco only with street mode enabled, I will have to wait till next summer to see if this changes now I have disabled street mode and upped the % amounts.

I have sat down and done some more number crunching, the limited pv watts I was considering simply won't produce much for about 5 months of the year as we don't see enough good winter sun. Southern eu it makes sense. Battery storage needs to be far greater then anticipated for winter usage and...

Re celling is ideal if one wants to use: 1. Better brand cells. 2. Maybe higher Mah rated cells. Otherwise generic bought batteries are often more then good enough for use.

My doc's surgery is the same, one solitary U framed bike locking point in the carpark with no shelter. I cycle to my doc's and simply lock my bike to the support posts of the entrance canopy to the side of the main door. They don't help those who can or wish to cycle to the surgery and benifit...

Look and read thru the 9 page threa don ES I linked to in #130 above.

The luke warm one feels is just the tip of the iceberg as to speak, internally the heat will be far greater (likely 60 -65c ) ok now but if you ride in hot weather as we had this summer then the motor for sure will become toasty. Inside the motor there are many areas which are air voids, air is...

If the latter speed control Lishui then one is stuck with the settings, some contollers have a white data plug but to use this you need the manufacturer software to re program.

There are the fiido brand folders which get a seal of approval from Cycle buddy, maybe he can give more insight on them regarding weight & folding ability.

The main advice if maxing out current and watts is to fit the heat mods needed to help keep the motor cooler and an internal temp sensor to monitor the internal heat build up, using an external sensor is no good. On ES some of the users have cooked the motor coils resulting in demagnitisation...

The Blue gear is the safe option as it is quite easy to replace and acts as a fail safe, if the metal gear is used then failure occurs elsewhere so involves more dissecting and repairs elswhere. This appears to be borne out by the ES users experience.

Be careful using max assist without precautions, the blue drive gear may shear teeth. Using turbo with high % values may well cause issues with either breakages or overheating the motor, might be ok winter time but during hot weather it my be telling.

Tbh one can't order spokes until the rim is in front of you to double check, one only has to guess wrong and find the rim ERD to be 2 or 3mm different and then need to buy more spokes.

There are very few shop or even no shops who even repair propriatary bikes brands as they can't , they are box sellers and component swappers. Nearly anyone with common sense can undo afew nuts or bolts to swap apart out . Give them a kit bike and they are out of their depth as haven't a clue...

To get the most out of programming one needs to go down the OSF route, I believe though one can make some adjustments via display input and button pressing. The OSF offers smoother and better operation after mnay years of input from users around the world. OSF allows for finer tuning of the...

With the tsdz2 one can select 6 differing types of assist input; 1. Power assist = assistance proportional to pressure on the pedals 2. Torque assist = assistance proportional to torque on the pedals. 3. cadence = simple pedal rotation. 4. emtb assist = assistance with progressive % of...
