    Keep your finger near the off switch. switch the battery off the moment it misfires.

    What happens when you overload phase wires?

    It's normally the shrouds around the bullet connectors that melt or the wires that come out of the controller and join to them. I've said it a million times before, never try and use an ebike motor if it isn't running properly. You start with a shorting connector because the shrouds melted...

    Should I avoid "in frame' Batteries?

    The in-frame batteries are replaceable as a unit. You're often tied to the manufacturer for a replacement, so I'd only get one if the bike was extremely popular, otherwise it's not that likely that a battery will be available when you need one years down the road. Many of the Chinese bikes use...

    Poorly Bafang CST 180mm: trouble disassembling (some screws not budging)

    You need exactly the right screwdriver bit. If they're really stuck, an impact-driver will probably shift then. Mine have always come out using the right bit and a 1/4 drive ratchet handle.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Except that he included the word "even", which infers that he wouldn't go that far even if she were worthy of it.

    Short circuit between phase wires? Fix?

    The LCD works independently from the controller. All it needs is battery voltage on the red and black wires to work. Don't by IRFB 4110s on Ebay. Many of them are fakes. All the ones I bought from there were, so I had to buy a large quantity direct from IR, but whenever you buy from USA, you...

    Yosepower hub kits.

    You don't need a connector. Just solder the wires together and insulate them with shrink-sleeve. The best connector is always no connector. You'll never need to disconnect the sensor, and even if you did, it's quicker to cut the wires and resolder them than it is to solder on a connector.

    I guess from that, you didn't watch the video.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Do you believe that? Here's what he actually said. Where's the discrimination that you reported? Is it that he wouldn't rape her because she's too ugly? I guess that's a type of discrimination, but it's not illegal. I too haven't raped any ugly women. Have you, or are you free from such...

    Inter-tube confusion

    You can fit a whole range of tyre widths to any rim. 2mm makes no difference.

    Emu mini ebike review - The Guardian

    According to their website, it's a 5.2v 5.2Ah battery! That wouldn't be very powerful.

    Short circuit between phase wires? Fix?

    It's probably shorted in the cable somewhere. those motors are pretty cheap, so probably easier to chuck it and get a replacement. There's a fair chance that you've blown the shunt and the mosfets in your controller, so test the resistance between the battery wires and the phase wires. If it's...

    Battery charging with inverter and 12 dv battery

    It's not a good idea to use an inverter to charge an ebike battery from a 12v one. The reason is because of the amount of charge you need. Your 500wh battery would require 42 Ah at 12V. That's not the full story though. You're going through two converters, so efficiency will be about 80%, which...

    Yosepower hub kits.

    It's dead easy to test the PAS, which you should do before contacting the supplier. 1. Check that your connector wires go red to red, black to black and signal to signal. 2. With the bike switched on and everything connected, measure the voltage between the red and black wires. That's not...

    I would forget about the slime. Fit some Schwalbe marathon Plus tyres and you'll be free from punctures.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    While some of those facts are true, as well you know, it gives a misrepresentation of his criminality. There's a reason why 30,000 people turned up to get him out of jail. This video explains everything if anybody wants to know the truth. It saves me having to spend my good time explaining it.

    I think you're misunderstanding something, or maybe I'm misunderstanding you. Which candidates have flouted the law on discrimination? Can you provide an example?

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Now, you can see why Tommy Robinson and his crew , when on his Brexit camapign trail, react in a fairly substantial way whenever anybody threatens violence against them. He's been under a fatwa for years. How would you handle it if you were in his position, other than be a coward? Believe it or...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I see Sargon of Akkad has risen in popularity since he started his MEP campaign. He's now got approaching 1 million subscribers on Youtube, and rising fast. That's substantially more than Jeremy Corbyn's got on his channel. Here's his latest. He gets a lot of publicity from key figures. What...
