    Battery cables and On/Off switch

    I think this discussion is going down a path of a solution looking for a problem. Properly rated fuses are extremely reliable very cheap, light weight and very long lasting. Electro mechanical circuit breakers, unless aircraft rated will be subject to false triggering due to vibration, and need...

    15 miles per ,day or 30 miles per day. If the latter would be a good idea to install an additional charger at your office as batteries which are only partially discharged should last significantly longer and give you more zip on the way home as the voltage will be higher.

    Battery cables and On/Off switch

    ... Interesting suggestion not sure how relevant. Domestic circuit breakers are AC rated and would wear very badly on DC circuits.

    The description of the connectors you give would fit crimped eyelet type and these would be the suitable replacements. You can purchase these in any maplins, bring an old one with you to ensure the proper diameter. These are single use components . Bare a length of the wire insert it through...

    If the hub were knackered and had short circuit s it would destroy a new controller. If the wires coming from the controller shorted together such that large currents came from controller,and melted insulation. I would suspect that one of the three sets of transistors in the controller is burnt...

    ... Sounds bad. Are you saying that the pedals and crank will only rotate anticlockwise and there is a complete block on forward ( clockwise) rotation? Whether there is power applied or otherwise. That would imply that the freewheel which should engage when you are peddling faster than the...

    ... Interesting , these are learned competent men, but what are these arguments under EU law which supercede a simple reading of article 50. The UK would be a supplicant to the ECJ, the only body competent to adjudicate. It would be arguing that it did not really mean what it said, when in...
