    NiMh Battery recommendations sought.

    I have an old 24v Nimh pack in the garage 20 cells, not only bulky but quite heavy compared to Lithium. My 7s7p of Lg HE2's are lighter and has a max 140a discharge rate and 17.5ah of capacity about double that of the Nimh pack.

    Can I swap battery from my old bike into new bike (both are 36v lithium)?

    KT880 doesn't allow for any parameter changes so as vfr has said a KTLCD3 will be required to access the C parameters or one could opt for the compact LCD4.

    Tesla's main advance over competitors is they catch fire more often.

    Spokes

    Can we see a pic of the whole wheel for clarity ? It can be seen that 13g 2.4mm spokes have been used, though if anything occurs it will be better to use the more flexible 14g/2mm spokes in the future.

    cargo bike conversion

    The legal unit that comes to mind with oomph is the BBS01ETM/ MM G340 250 model that has a 25a controller and uprated internals for extra torque. I have only seen it available from Brighton ebikes.

    Help! Upstart momentum electric controller fried?

    The rain has probably got in the electric's and is likely shorting out a circuit somewhere causing continual power supply. I would start with the throttle disconnect it and see if the bike works properly, if so the fault is water ingress to the throttle.

    Can I swap battery from my old bike into new bike (both are 36v lithium)?

    The gear cluster doesn't need removing if the hub has side plate screws and are accessible. Is the controller compatible with your display, does it have the correct wiring for it ?

    Help! Battery\controller help

    If the bike doesn't work then you may have blown controller mosfets or hub motor halls. Firstly though determine that the battery outputs I assume 36v, if so one can carry out controller and motor hall testing. Without meter testing simply rotate the rear wheel by hand forwards if it is very...

    Kit specifies minimum AH for battery..

    D/D makes sense if you have a flat fairly interrupted route, then at fast speed they excel and are in the efficient zone. Other wise for hilly commutes one needs to throw serious current through them which means about 35/40a and a battery to deliver, with a spec rating much higher then 40a. One...

    Ebike lights for 85volt battery

    The link doesn't work an invalid source. There are ones (front) on ebay that work to 85v but whether the top limit has any leeway ? What about a rear light ? For fusing one needs to implement an inline one on the v+ line. If the controller has no specific light out put, take the power directly...

    Battery advice

    Have you tried the long press of the on/off switch as I mentioned ? I expect what has occurred is due to no use one of the cell groups has dropped to about 3v and the batteries internal BMS will not switch the charge mosfets this in turn doesn't allow the charger to supply current and begin...

    Battery advice

    With out a voltage meter there's not a lot we can help with if the real time voltage isn't known. Do you not have a relative or friend who can help out ? We can guide you in to what needs doing/checking with quite easy how and where. A part from the cost of a meter about £5 - £10 it cost's...

    Battery advice

    Do you have or have access to meter, if not a cheap DVM can be bought on ebay. A voltage reading might be useful to start with. Some batteries have a sleep mode one can try pressing the on/off switch for about 10 -30 seconds.

    scooters

    In Merseyside a rider was seen riding unsafely thru the 2 miles of the Mersey tunnel and was spoken to buy the tunnel police but looks like he got away with bollocking. In Brizzle on Sept 15th a rider was fine more then £300 and had 6 points put on his licence.

    Can I swap battery from my old bike into new bike (both are 36v lithium)?

    The hub isn't working so you have nothing to lose by opening up and trying a repair, it can't get any worse then not working. Also whilst at it one can replace bearings total cost about £10 if you have a soldering iron, once open it is far easier to replace all bearings 2 or 3 rather then just...
