This might help with understanding. His summary seems to be that it's individual cell quality that leads to fires, though I only skipped through it so far:

Today, I had a dentist appointment 5 miles away. It takes a relaxed 20 minutes to get there, so I allow 30 minutes because I hate being late. Due to unusual circumstances, I had to stop abruptly in top gear after one mile. Unfortunately, I had set my throttle to be dependent on pedalling, so I...

Electric bike owners know this, but if you don't already have one are thinking about it, this might tell you something:

After it was mentioned in another thread, i decided to check out the bike storage at the local station, and I found some interesting things. here it is in a walkway near the station, sort of in the middle of nowhere without much security. station is in the background of 2nd photo:

This guy is generally quite reasonable. What he's saying here is generally right but most of his reasons why are way off, which is spreading all the misunderstandings and urban myths about the regulations, which you can see being repeated in the comments. The main points are that he says there's...

This guy does a very good analysis of some recent events in USA. Basically, it shows the knee-jerk reaction to tragedy. People aren't too interested in facts, analysis or critical thinking. They just want things to be the way they want them. The event analysed was a crash between a woman on a...

There's often discussion about where to get suitable donor bikes. Here's something fairly new. The tip in Wrexham has a shop where they recycle any bikes brought to the tip. Other tips might have the same. See here at the end of the video (16:30). Also included is what's probably the most viewed...

Not perfect, but what do you expect for £600. I love bikes like this. Not so much as they come, but because every part is easily and cheaply upgradeable to make it into the bike you want. I thought the guy was a little unreasonable when he was scaring people with stories about ebike fires and...

This guy could have one: https://www.cyclingweekly.com/news/i-did-2364-watts-wattbike-world-record-holder-challenges-anyone-to-beat-his-200m-benchmark

I just looked at the spares on the Eleglide site and they sell bare motors for £115 and complete motor wheels for about £132. I didn't want to enter all my details to get the shipping cost, but hopefully it's not too much. You get a £25 discount code if you sighn up to the newsletter. They also...

The question was about the different versions here: https://bafang-e.cn/en/oem-area/components/component/motor/fm-g070250350d/ n0 is the no-load max speed and nT is the optimal efficiency speed. The only thing you need to worry about is matching the motor's nT to your planned modal riding...

Maybe it got mentioned before, but I didn't hear anything. It seems that Gtech no longer are making ebikes, and they sold their last stock on Ebay. That might be a bit awkward for people who have those bikes and will need replacement batteries some time in the future. They still have the V2...

This video is really interesting. It explains why the MiRider is more expensive than the Onebot. These guys did a much better job than the other guy from Mirider that came on here telling us about it. The guy that made the video is very good at what he does. He mainly videos government...

These look interesting and legal at 15.5mph. I wonder what the police would make of it? https://www.youtube.com/shorts/41veO1WlAp8

I've started a new project. AFAIK, what I'm doing hasn't been done before - not like I plan to do it, anyway. It'll start off fairly normal, then it'll get expanded, and finally, a bit of a twist in the tail. For a bit of entertainment, you can start guessing now. I'm not going to give any more...

I just had a look at Ebay used ebikes for sale. I filtered the results by ending soonest, then looked at the list. I had to go through 20 listings before I found any that got a single bid in their 7 to 10 days of being listed. The first one was a fairly heavily accessorized Samebike at £41 with...
