    that's a pretty good idea. Like SF, the BXP don't have to take up their seats.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    William Hague: However, between BJ's no deal brexit intention to a no brexit, you need an extension to A50 to organise a new referendum. That's easier said than done. The law allows the sitting government 14 days to try to obtain confidence of parliament after losing a confidence vote. After...

    they want to goad remainers. TM's plan was stopped by the ERG. Without the ERG, division inside the Labour party is enough to stop remainers.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    if it were only for fishermen, they won't be quite millionaires, £6 billions / 12000 = half a million each. The £6 billions will go toward 12,000 fishermen and about 300,000 farms.

    Woosh Fat boy Tyre Pressure

    Hi Petesmith, 45psi is the maximum for those 3" Kiniption tyres. I usually pump them to 20psi for forrestry tracks, 25psi-30psi for tarmac. I'll tell Andy about the 45psi error, they are not for the Fat Boy. Thank you Pete for flagging it up.

    Advice on ebike conversion kit for 30mile commute

    The geared hub motors in my kits are not up to the job, but you can use much cheaper direct drive motors. The internal gearbox is the weak link, they are made for 250W continuous use. If you put 1,000W into it, the nylon cogs will melt in a few minutes. Direct drive motors don't have internal...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    since Farage sent up his booster rocket, BJ and JH upped their game to £30 billions each now. At this rate, we'll have the best civil service, healthcare, rails, roads, green energy, free higher education etc before the next GE and guess what, they'll make the world pay for all that. Don't you...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    they have found the magic money tree! it seems we need brexit every few years to fix the state of our public services. Cut tax for the rich and pay the nurses more. What's not to like?

    why do you think 72V = 18S while people on aliexpress think it's 20S? https://www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesale-bms-72v.html

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    we can but the conservative government can't. you have to wait until you can vote them out. My guess the next government will try to either go for a very soft brexit or another referendum.

    that isn't the only problem you will have to solve! For example: how are you going to program the controller for LVC ? How will you program the LCD to display correctly the SOC of your battery? How are you going to specify the motor winding to suit your wheel? it takes me months to eliminate a...

    don't worry about your math. We count the number of cells in series for a BMS. eg 16S = 16* 3.6V (the voltage of the Lithium-ion at 50% SOC) = 57.6V If you go for LiFePO4, note that it has lower voltage. 10S with Li-ion = 11S with LiFePO4, don't mix.

    how are you going to wire in a BMS though? LiFePO4 may be best suited to his kit: medium discharge current and intrinsically safe. https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/hot-72v-40ah-lifepo4-e-bike_1560972387.html

    it not just that, it's tried and tested solution. The biggest problem with experiments is the unexpected problems. a 20S BMS cost about £20. If you put 4 x 5S bricks in series, each brick may be balanced but you can't balance between the 4 bricks. A 20S BMS lets you charge all the cells at the...

    I did think about assembling batteries for a long time but decided against it. The welding equipment alone is a major obstacle, plus die and press for cutting the nickel sheets.
