Thiseems like an excellent idea for gadget geek (like myself)
Tethercell makes any AA battery-powered device controllable via smartphone
I can think of a couple of ebike uses immediately for those with IOS or Andoid powered smartphones
1)For you lights in winter. I have four lights so four switches to find and flick whilst wearing gloves in the dark. Fiddly business.. How much cooler if you they all simply turned on when you walk up to your bike. You can even a set time period, like a morning and evening commute, so if you are within Bluetooth range at home, during the night for example, they will not turn on.
2) I would have thought the circuitry could somehow be hacked in the low voltage parts of the controller wiring as a security measure. If you/your phone are not in range then it wont work
Yes if your phone goes flat then your lights go out and the motor dies…..but hey there is always a downside !
Any other ebike applications spring to the collective pedelec hive mind ?
