I can't help with a charger, but you'll need to say if it's for the Panasonic branded battery or the Kalkhoff branded battery for the Panasonic unit. The chargers are different for some of the latter type. .

Another common source of such creaks on crank units is the bolts holding it into the frame. The frames are painted and then the motor unit mounted. With pedal force the paint on the frame compresses, leaving the motor unit able to very slightly shift in the mountings on each pedal stroke. The...

The creaks appear to be on the downstrokes, which normally indicates the crank arm nuts need tightening on square-taper fit cranks. However I don't know the crank type on your motor unit. .

The lower part of item number 4 fits over the base of the battery and the upper part on the cable shown vertically is probably where your connector plugs into. That number 4 assembly may be included in the battery price since it's essential. Thanks for offering to post further. I would like to...

A day trip maybe, but for six months it would be too boring! Suffered the fingers again at 1.30 pm driving a short distance in a cold car to the supermarket. On arrival my breathing was unnaturally rapid and pulse going crazily eratic. Back home warmed up hands immersed in warm water and...

If you look at page 5 of the PDF which is fourth down in this Google link you'll see the SO3 battery's five-in-line connections that I mentioned. In the same illustration, the adjacent number 4 is the part you are missing, which connects your 4 pin connector to the battery base number 3. The...

With just this single front hinge it would be easy for the inventor to make it quickly detachable for fine weather, yet still keeping the high safety profile at the rear. Could have a swing out rear view mirror on the o/s front mudguard for open top use:

If you mean the police usage, their e-bikes are restricted to the legal 15.5 mph, they've never asked for otherwise. .

Yes, but they didn't work for me. I even imported a pair of the metallised liners that astronauts use in the freezing temperatures of space, but they were no better. In the advanced stage I seem to have now, just a hint of cold detected seems to switch off the circulation to fingers and toes...

Not really, the number plate gives the owner and the owner has to divulge who the driver was in any event being investigated. Probably nothing. The risk of an illegal pedelec only occurs after one is involved in an accident and traffic police investigating find the discrepancy. Many police...

That isn't the battery connector though. The base of the Sunstar battery has it's five connections in a straight line exactly like that Panasonic one I linked to. Your square connector must be only an interconnector. The part you seem to be missing from your kit is the in line plate with flat...

There's a crucial difference that accounts for the different treatment. Pedelec riders are not tested for competence and licenced, plus no number plate for traceability. Therefore in the absence of any control on the driver there needs to be strict control laws on the vehicle instead to ensure...

I'm wondering whether this kit will function properly on just the two connections Peter. The Sunstar battery has five base connections, rather like the Panasonic unit battery. On this link you'll see how Panasonic use theirs, so I suspect Sunstar are doing something similar. .

For me it's the same with all heated gloves, for practical reasons the elements can't be in the best places. I suffer from Raynaud's syndrome, meaning my fingers go dead with no circulation at the slightest hint of cold and it's got very much worse with age. When younger it only happened with...

Here's an ebay link to these, known as "Helping Hands". .

It shows a rear disc brake with the cable/tube disappearing upwards into the frame, so maybe a hidden actuator in the frame join slot. .

"A"merican Ford. :) .

Like GoCycle, they wrongly use the word fold instead of dismantle. Below is what they say is folded for public transport or to fit in the boot of a car. Highly inconvenient on a bus or train and it wouldn't fit in many of our car boots! Interesting though.

Is it definitely the motor? Pick up the front and spin the front wheel forward by hand and see how long it runs on. If it runs freely it means there's an internal freewheel and it's working, so the drag is the bike in general. The freewheel in this type of hub motor disconnects the motor...

I was accurate for a very sunny day that the OP envisages, since the land heating up would start occurring early on. Of course if he set out early the breeze wouldn't yet be present. And the reverse happens late in the day. Also to avoid inaccuracy I used the expression "summer breezes"...
