Just read it all this guy is in my opinion advocating what could be a dangerous action,drilling your battery cover to fit it.


This item is brand new and easy to fit.

Simply engrave or stamp (3mm recomended)

the required details in the relevant spaces.

There are stamping kits in my e-bay shop.
Drill and pop rivet on to your frame or battery cover.

The plates are aluminium.


LEGAL REQUIREMENT FOR ALL EAPC's

Vosa and the Police have the power to issue penalties

if a plate is not attached.

Don't take any notice, it's not correct anyway!

UK EAPC law requires e-bikes to be plated by the manufacturer, the plate affixed to the bike, not the motor, and in an easily read position. The plate should bear the motor maximum continuous power, the battery voltage and the weight of the e-bike.

No-one has ever done that, it's a universally ignored provision. The current DfT online statements of the EAPC law no longer include that part anyway, probably in recognition that it never happens!
