    My Cargo bike build.

    Every thing has arrived now, the last little bit to do was the lm35 heat sensor. So I have wired/soldered the pin up as per the Wiki page, read to splice and install on to the pcb. So bravely I opened the stvp file downloaded and set the page up to read the desired info/files, connected and...

    information needed

    No not on the scooter, your 48v controller lvc won't suit the 24v battery. 24v is 29.4v max, lvc for 48v controller will be 39/40v. 2 x 24v in series will work.

    Review Tong Sheng TSDZ2 Owner Survey

    Not software as she is/was one of the main protagonists on ES with the programming, it was the build quality of the drive. RHS main drive shaft shearing and I think the TS failing, the usage for her terrain wasn't suitable so the DD hub and KT osf with homemade BT screen was a better option.

    Power loss

    If no external port then one has to open the battery case to find the fuse on the discharge side near the discharge port.

    Power loss

    One last thing you can check with a reading of 14v is the internal battery fuse, if the discharge fuse has failed then one can expect a silly reading. Some batteries have an external port for the fuse to hide behind.

    Power loss

    The self discharge is pretty fatal and likely down to BMS failure unless the cells are fake/crap ones used. I had a 48v battery die on me last year before last, panasonic PF cells all died after the BMS failed. It was ok one month when I checked SOC and then the next check dead as a dodo.

    Power loss

    Just seen this and CB is spot on. The battery is knackered and 39v fully charged means it is either seriously out of balance or the cells or a cell group is knackered, any 36v battery not attaining 41.5 - 42v fully charged is not well.

    Why car drivers DO NOT see cyclists

    Imv the reason why most don't see cyclists is; 1. Not enough due care and attention when driving. 2. Poor eyesight or drivers not owning up to having so. 3. Speed at and approaching junctions which relates to #1. 4. Being distracted by car devices which again relates to #1.

    Ebike query

    One can leave it for about an hour to balance if the balance is out, but never over night or allow charging when asleep. With regards to polarity, one should be able to remove the battery base and rotate the discharge pin block and then swap the base connection as well on the receiver so both...

    Torn between these two brands...

    Can't disagree, the 8 freight is just a better looking bike. The other nice feature of the one sided sturmy hub was the press button QR to remove the wheel.

    E-scooters 'are five times safer than bikes' - Study by The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents

    The scooters you have to watch out for are the ninja ones who only come out in the dark, no lights and all black clothing, you can't see them in the shadows and not until about 10 feet away do you realise they are there. Had one tonight cycling home from work.

    Sourcing a replacement rear wheel

    I will dig out the motor and post pics, it is freewheel and compatible with the motor connection. You or the wheel builder will need the rim ERM and the hub diameter to determine the spoke lengths, if for instance the hub is exactly the same diameter then one could reuse the old spokes.
