The KT controllers are a bit more expensive that the Brainpower ones, but they're so much better. It's definitely worth paying the extra for one. This isn't snobbishness, nor is it boasting. I always look for the cheapest adequate solution. It makes the difference between an OK bike and a really...

I can confirm that there is no fuse there. Also, the wiring looks quite robust, so things don't look so good. Before going any further, you need to check the voltage on the charge socket. If it's above 30V, the battery is probably OK. If its zero volts, you have a broken solder joint on the...

It's a DIY conversion, not a ready-made electric bike. You haven't given us a clue to what it's been converted with. There are hundreds of different motors, batteries, etc. It's a bit like saying, "I bought some food today in Sainsburys. Can someone tell me how to cook it?"

When it arrives, the only thing you need to check is that the polarity is the right way round. For that, you need a voltmeter. Only the outer two pins are used, so you check the voltage across them first in the battery to see which way round they are, then switch on the charger and check its...

You can get them from Ebay very cheaply. Your battery is nominally 36v, but it charges to 42.0v. sometimes they call it a 36v charger and sometimes 42v. You have to look in the details of any listing to check what the charging voltage is. Current needs to be around 2 amps. There's one here for...

What Oldgroaner really means is that he can't win a debate by rational discussion because his ideas and points are so bad, so he just wants to sulk a bit and get some sympathy. Here we go, Oldgroaner, there there!

Absolutely incredible. A man throws a brick at Tommy Robinson, admits it and gets a police caution. Let's see what the guy gets for throwing a milkshake over Nigel Farage. The bloke that threw an egg at Jeremy Corbin got jailed...

Quite right. There's going to be a massive shitfest sooner or later. The EU project, as it stands, is now on borrowed time. It therefore makes little difference whether our government leaves us in or pulls us out. These 54,000 posts have been a futile exercise.

OK , so now you've resorted to name calling. I can see the model of debate you're using, which follows this diagram exactly. We can see the next step. I think you've been on the Brexit thread too long, where people spout this sort of rubbish at each other all day long as if it's going to change...

Your point is valid as far as breaking the speed limit is concerned. When the police check the speed of cars, they use an independent device, like their own calibrated speedometer, VASCAR, Radar gun or whatever. They would use that evidence in a prosecution and wouldn't even be interested to...

The last time I told someone on the forum how to derestrict his bike, I told him that I would have to kill him if he let the secret out. Unfortunately he let it out, may he rest in peace. I can tell you the secret but I'd have to kill you first because I can't run the risk of this one getting...

Salvini: "The real extremists are Merkel, Macron, Soros and Juncker - elites who betrayed and occupied Europe in the name of finance, money, multinationals and uncontrolled immigration."

It doesn't mater what their policies are, except to get us out of the EU. We will be leaving the EU sooner or later anyway, so they'd never get to implement any policies on anything else. The whole thing is a farce. basically, it's a surrogate referendum. If more than 50% vote for the Brexit...

Yes, that all makes sense. the only question now is whether the cells are shagged. I hope they're not, but all the info you've given doesn't give me enough reason to bet against it. Lets cross our fingers and see what happens during your next rides.

We've already all agreed on that. The question is whether it's still illegal if you haven't derestricted it. This is the bit that's not so clear. My opinion is that this is a very muddy area of discussion and not possible for us to answer. Everybody can probably agree that an on/off speed limit...

It depends what kit you have. Show us a photo of the LCD or LED control panel or whatever you have. We don't need to see the motor, but an overall picture of the bike might help.

It's almost certain that you can use any 36v capable of delivering 20 amps as long as you can find a way to attach and connect it. Ebikebatteries.co.uk (Jimmy) can take out whatever is in your battery and reload it with lithium cells for around £250, depending on what characteristics you want...

Some batteries have more than one fuse, and they're often hidden. Some have them accessible from the outside and some on the inside. Have a look under the handle. The charge fuses are normally 5 amps.

You didn't reply to a single point because you're still not getting it. Instead, like the extreme right lefties in their response to sound arguments and discussions, all you do is try and shout them down. In this case what anybody thinks about Tommy Robinson has absolutely no relevance. Why have...
