Hi all,
I've been a cyclist all my life, but I only took up ebiking about 6 months ago. I remember being quite shocked at how hot the charger got when my battery was on charge, yet its something I have never seen discussed on the forum. I have a Bosch 500 powerpack, and the manufacturers own compact charger supplied with the bike. I became so concerned that you can see from the photograph how I charge the battery - a small USB desk fan blowing onto the charger, and the charger resting on 2 pencils to allow the air to circulate around it better. Can someone please tell me - have I totally lost the plot, gone mad, or become so obsessed with all things ebike that I require therapy? Is there another ebiker anywhere in Britain or beyond, who does this?!
