    Adjustable eBike battery chargers

    Now looks like an interesting option to an adjustable power supply. Several reviews of it on Youtube, it looks like it will do what I want, as well as being able to act as a solar charger. I have a 150W 12V bench supply, whjich I use for my iCharger 106B+. Thanks.

    And to extend life further, dont charge to the full voltage. Nice to have the choice.

    Best kit for mostly off road commute

    If you get caught you can loose your driving licence, with possible significant implications on the costs of driving insurance in the future. The risk of that happening might be 'small' or 'tiny' but the risk is there. Do you feel lucky ?

    Adjustable eBike battery chargers

    Not quite what I was after, only 3A. However I used some of the keywords in the name of that product you found (so thanks) to search Aliexpress and found this; Power Supply By the way, how do you put a web link in a post so that it shows a picture of what your linking to ?

    Adjustable eBike battery chargers

    Can anyone recommend an adjustable battery charger whereby you are able to set the maxium voltage and charge current. Say a charger that could be used for up to '48V' batteries at 5 Amps.

    best connector for a 5a charger?

    Can you provide a link to the charger you had in mind ? I have been considering getting a 'fast' charger for my own batteries which use an ST3 connector.

    One just assumes that every driver is distracted\not looking. The issue with auto drive is that the drivers can be super distracted as in engrossed in watching TopGun2\Porn etc.

    I seem to recall the changes to the Highway code were planned for September. One change i would like to see is that vehicles with auto drive capability should be marked in some way so its obvious to everyone in the vicinity of the vehicle that the driver may not be paying attention or...

    Solar trailer rides again!

    Here is an example Arduino project; https://create.arduino.cc/projecthub/onyx/ultrasonic-sensor-alarm-1ec0f3 The amount of memory used by the program is small, only 15% of the space the Arduino UNO used in that example has. An Arduino Nano would be OK, as would a Arduino Pro Mini. The Pro...

    National Cycle Network to gain Bosch eBike chargers

    Well you can undestand, from Boschs perspective, if these charging staions included advanced battery fault detection systems not available on the normal user chargers. After all profit safety is paramount.

    I am reminded of the ocaision when an UBER killed a pedestrian pushing a cycle; https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-54175359/ So presumably whilst watching movies will be OK, watching streaming TV will not ?

    They are likely doing it to distract the voters from the partygate mess and introduce rule changes that highlight the to date illusive benefits of brexit. That people might get killed is just the price the public have to pay in order for the government to achieve popularity.

    And that illustrates the main issue here. Give a driver a bit of technology and they will use it when they should not. Evidence for that claim can be seen every time you go out on the roads. Use of mobile phones, in the hand while driving, is common, although its illegal with significant...

    What has probably happened is that some study by 'esteemed academics' has shown that in slow moving motorway traffic, the risks are small, after all there should be no pedestrians or cycles . So presumably when these changes come into force, if you break down on a motorway you will be required...

    Presumably if it only has a couple of minutes to run that would be ok as its only a 'minor' breach of rules, such as like speeding. Maybe in twenty years or so the self drive systems will be good enough to allow this sort of thing to be relativly 'safe'. However allowing them under current...

    Forthcoming EU Red Tape Bonfire

    Maybe. If there were a significant change in the power limits, the current speed limit would look a bit silly. Maybe that is the intention, increase the power limit so that eBikes that can go faster (breaking the speed limit) can be openly purchased. After all in the modern way of thinking...

    Forthcoming EU Red Tape Bonfire

    Presumably what the politician really means is that there might be a minor adjustment of the limits.
