EggRider Bafang Bluetooth Device

[robwalley]

This little box plugs in the same place as any display (green plug) and you connect via any android device to take. Anyone interested take a look at this link: https://eggbikes.com/eggrider

I've purchased the beta version and will be feeding back to the software guys over the next few week, basically the functions and hardware and software work OK, but there are lots of improvements required.

Anyone with thoughts or tests required, let me know.

List so far.

1. App display must be configurable in terms of what is displayed and layout. It's currently fixed and doesn't auto-rotate to landscape and thus wouldn't (in android 7) support split screen apps (running this and say a map side by side)

2. Box must have a plug for the assist levels physical buttons. You shouldn't be touching the screen to change levels, your fingers are too big, the bike is moving and vibrating and it's probably dangerous. (In practice I could do it but changed to the wrong levels inadvertently fairly often)

3. Box needs a USB outlet (same as colour display) to charge the mobile device.
