    How to find range?

    Yes, to reach its full potential power. Also a battery short of what is needed results in the cells discharging at their limit, stressing them and shortening battery life. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It was in Westminster borough, but never mind, try this one which was also in Westminster today, blocking five bridges, 85 arrests. The people are revolting. :) .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Judging from the photo, the up to date German car was going forwards, the relic of the past British engine going backwards. Rather aposite as a metaphor for our Brexit future. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It's what being a member of the EU does. It strengthens the parts other organisations cannot reach. .

    Unfortunately the whole charitable sector lacks scrutiny. A friend of mine of 52 years standing until his death was a civil service executive officer in the Charity Commission for several years and confirmed all my own observations of widespread abuse. He also complained of the Commission's...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    May's deal can't be modified, the departure deal has been finalised and the EU have confirmed as much. So the options are, Crash out, or a second referendum with a binary choice, Remain or accept May's deal. A three way choice isn't acceptable since it's even more likely to get balanced result...

    No-one has posted any bitterness or any contempt for these people, that resides only in your mind. Some of us are merely cautious about how we give and who we give through to ensure it goes where it should, promptly and as intact as possible. I have personally known examples of very well known...

    How to find range?

    Questioning on range over the years in this forum has resulted in an average of 12 Wh per mile, so your 360 Wh gives an average of 30 miles for a high proportion of riders on average e-bikes. Weaker riders use more, typically in the 15 to 20 Wh area, while just a very few riders who are either...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Why? If the public reach the point where they want to rejoin the EU, they will accept what they are choosing. It all comes down to whether Brexit causes suffering. It won't take much pain to get a large majority of the public denying they were the ones voting to exit. So whichever way it...

    He's one of the good Guys, an EU army with us as part of it would have been ideal, restraining our excessive eagerness to go to war against others. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I see facts, you answer in a demeaning tone with bluff, untruths, and an obvious lack of relevant knowledge. Eventually you will realise the truth when we apply to rejoin the EU. You may not have to wait very long. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    We are already unable to balance the books and Brexit departures could make this very much worse. It's not the individual direct Brexit effects that voters will feel, it's the belt tightening enforced by our government as they struggle to manage the decline in revenue. The hardships imposed...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You're being silly now in order to bluff. That is not a correct use of the word assemble, as you obviously knew by your contrast with the BMW mention when you made the reference. And there's a lot of nonsense in the remainder. The total earnings of the things we're likely to keep in your...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You're in danger of being too smug. Ford Dagenham once had the world's most complete car manufacturing plant, 32,000 people doing everything from casting the cylinder blocks in their own foundry to sewing the upholstery. It's all gone, now in mainland Europe. There's just a little plant in...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You haven't answered my question, how do we earn the money to buy what we need to live? You clearly have no answer. And once again you've shown your lack of knowledge in your comment of "assemble Nissans". The Nissans produced in Sunderland are predominantly manufactured here by a large...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Thank you for admitting that we cannot match other's manufacturing, precisely my point. But where does the money to buy that Korean TV etc come from if we don't earn any? We are nowhere near self supporting in virtually anything, so must earn elsewhere as much as we need to live on, even to...

    Thanks for this informative post Tommie. In a similar vein the BBC annoyed me a few years ago by saying that it took the team distributing the money a whole year to do that due to the size of the amount. Nonsense of course, money can be very quickly given, clearly they were taking a year to...
