Hello All,

Has anyone on here forgotten to charge their ebike before heading out OR has anyone unknowingly gone over board exceeding the batteries capacity, ending up pedalling the rest of the way home? :oops:

Would you find this useful OR not?

Nice thought, but this isn't suitable for outputting more than 50W, which isn't enough power for even the weediest of chargers.

Additionally, it doesn't contain anywhere near enough energy to refill even a quarter of a small ebike battery.

20.1Ah * 3.7V = 74.37Wh

When I'm out and about touring the country, I use an inverter connected to my 100Ah car (van) battery to recharge my e-bike batteries (when I can't access a normal mains socket). Even then, a very large and very heavy 100Ah lead acid car battery only charges a 400Wh e-bike battery twice (at best).

Basically, a very good power bank for mobile phones.
