    Help! Wisper 705t Battery Charger

    That's very expensive for what it is. £15 should be more like it. I think he only put that up as an example of the connectors, not to suggest that you buy it.

    Bafang mid mount motor

    There are different types of wattmeters. They nearly all use a shunt to measure the current. some have remote shunts and some have internal ones. For the ones with internal shunts, which have two wires in and 2 wires out, you just sit them between the battery and controller, or in your case...

    Brushed controller

    You have to jump on Aliexpress and search through all the brushed motor controllers until you find one with a PAS connector. This one does and it'll work, but I think your present controller is 20 amps, so you're going to lose a bit of power. You should be looking at the 350w or 500w ones to...

    Broken thumb throttle

    You had 5v then, otherwise the motor wouldn't have run full speed. You get full speed when you connect the 5v to the throttle signal wire, so somehow you had either the wrong connection sequence or you had a short in the cable. I hate that type of integrated controller. We get loads of people...

    Spoke Calculation Help

    Yes, sorry, 5mm offset. I wasn't thinking straight. A 5mm off-set makes a theoretical difference of 1mm in the spoke lengths, but it's not worth getting different length spokes for the sake of 1mm. just get the longer ones, which would still be 222mm or 233mm. The only time spoke length is...

    Bafang mid mount motor

    The battery almost certainly didn't have 25% left. What indicator did you use. batteries always accelerate downwards when they get to about 25% and your voltage will be much lower, so you need to turn up the power to get the same amount of assist, which also runs it down faster. Next time you...

    Why do you not want to buy from China. That's where they all come from.

    Help! Wisper 705t Battery Charger

    You just cut the wires three inches from the connector on each charger lead and join the two wires. If you can't do it, take it to an electrical shop. £20 charge plus £10 to change the cable makes you £70 better off. Many of the chargers in that Ebay list have a connector that will probably...

    Broken thumb throttle

    Unplug everything from the controller except the battery and the control panel. switch it on and meaure the 5v between each of the red and blacks on the motor hall sensors, PAS and throttle. If all 1v still, you've blown the 5v regulator in the controller. If they come back to 5v, plug each of...

    Spoke Calculation Help

    According to the motor drawing, the centre of the motor and the spoke flanges are only off-set about 2.5mm from the centre, which is negligible. You have 10mm in the box. Also, the flange spacing is 42mm not 18mm. My calculator says approximately (rounded up) 222mm and 233mm for 1 and 2 cross.

    Help! Wisper 705t Battery Charger

    You can use any 42v charger with the right connector or cut the connectors off and swap them over. You need a charger with an output current of 1.8A to 3A. the lower the amps, the longer it'll take to charge. Take your pick...

    Puncture on rear wheel on electric bikes!

    I was going to say exactly the same thing until Flecc beat me to it. It never ceases to amaze me how much crap is floating around to try and prevent people from using simple solutions. The higher the pressure, the more the patch is helped to hold onto the tube because it's trapped between the...

    Help! Brainpower controller and S886 display problems

    It sounds like you've done the self-learning incorrectly. Connect the motor hall wires and connect the self-learning wires. Switch on. Wait for the wheel to start turning in the correct direction. Switch off, disconnect the self-learning wires and don't connect them again. If that doesn't work...

    Question about torque arms installation

    You should be able to do it like this if you make a new tie-bar out of steel strip. you only have to drill two holes, or you can drill a new hole in the one you already have and grind off the end.

    Broken thumb throttle

    Now, with everything switched on, you have to check that it's functioning properly. measure the voltage between red and black - should be 5v, then measure between white and black while you twist the throttle- should go about 1.2v to 3.8v.

    Question about torque arms installation

    The problem is that the arm is being pushed up the fork and the jubilee clip is only holding it against the fork, so it can slide up, You can't do much on the right hand side, but the one on the left should be fixed to the disc mount if you can. More important, you've installed the motor upside...

    You'll get it soon. I have these sort of orders in as little as 24 hrs after I got the tracking number. It's possible that the virus arrangements will slow it down compared with mine.
