    batteries and chargers

    I totally agree, wisper thinks its a typo error on the case but when measured it outputs 36.5 v but yet charges the new battery but not my older battery and vis a versa. I can't measure the actual voltage under load either as the battery provides resistance. The manufacturer(chinese) is useless...

    batteries and chargers

    Thanks for that wheeliepete. The trouble is one charger outputs 42v and the other 36v, connections are the same, the 42v is rated at 2amp and the 36v 3amp. As all chargers will work on voltage sensing to start and end charging cycles, there may be some subtle differences although I agree they...

    batteries and chargers

    Having had a 575 w wisper battery for almost 5/6 years, it began to deteriorate as I would of expected it to do so. Wisper kindly sold me a new battery again 575w but installing it on my 806 only showed 75% full. Plugged my original sans charger in but would only show all green and charged! Put...

    Wisper Locking a Wisper Folding Bike 806

    Hi Geoff I have a wisper 806 folder myself and bought a kryptonite - kryptolok series 2 gold secured lock a few years ago.

    Wisper Thumbs up for Wisper

    I couldn't agree more. Been using wisper for 5 years now, not a regular cyclist user admittedly(due to age and infirmity) but have had 2 other makes as well which just dont match up to the quality. I have said it many times on this forum, its when things go wrong that you know you have chosen...

    I have the 575 wh version although its nearly 3-4 years old still manages to do app 30miles and I am big boy so no complaints, but it also depends on what level assist you choose when riding! However the battery needs to be looked after and this particular one allows it to be put to sleep...

    Help Please!

    Hi Pammy, not all ebikes are the same, they make look similar but so many are coming from China and other asian countries beware of longevity!

    Looking at whisper and volt

    Its no mountain bike, but I use it predominantly off road(main roads scare me) on cycle trails, unused railway tracks and some hilly parts of Cornwall and Lancashire. It seemed to be pitched at urban use but I am retired but find it useful as I always have it folded down in the boot of my car If...
