Having just looked, there's nothing in either battery fault finding guide - for both Phylion and STL Carrera Crossfire batteries - that causes that (one or more LEDs may flash to indicate certain faults, but not all together) so my money would too be on a catastrophic error like a dead short as...

No, it isn't... I'm not sure where you get that idea! I have a Fiido D11, and both the bike and Fiido themselves have been great. The Fiido C11 is the spiritual successor to the Fiido D4S (so Fiido themselves say) - hybrid step through design, hydraulic brakes, a bigger 500Wh battery for more...

The first thing I'd do is to dry out that display. Moisture can cause shorts on the board, although you say it functions okay when a 5v supply is plugged into the micro USB. I'd let the bike sit in a warm room for a few days to make sure... as there may (also/instead) be moisture in the...

Unless the OP's wife's bike is so new she can exchange it at the shop as she's "just bought it" changing it for a hub-drive might be expensive/easier said than done. It is a £1700 e-bike... There's a couple of reviews of other e-bikes out there that use this same M200 motor... IIRC both comment...

From what I've read, the M200 is torque sensor, not cadence. As the baby of Bafang's M range with 75nm torque (it's since been upgraded to 80nm as the M215), the way it's been programmed as standard is for economy/minimal assist rather than aggressive/power as it's intended for city riding. It's...

Speed has nothing to do with it. It's about how much energy you're trying to pull from the battery. Going up hills requires quite a bit of energy because by definition you're still pushing on the pedals even if in a lower gear and spinning a bit faster. It's pushing on the pedals that triggers...

This may or may not be your problem, but it does result in Bafang torque sensor mid-motors like your M560 stuttering... I have a Bafang M400 on a bike that uses smaller 10.4Ah batteries... when ridden "vigorously" and the battery is below full capacity, you can reach a state where the battery...

Announced at CES apparently: Bosch's new 'battery lock' update for eBikes could help deter thieves, but it'll cost you | TechRadar

Why don't you just ask Fiido for free? Much of the info for the D2S has disappeared from their website since it was discontinued, but Fiido have/did/do openly publish how to defeat the speed limiter for all their bikes where it's possible because everyone seems asks. In many cases they've even...

You're probably not looking in the right place... Fiido are very helpful if you ask them. They make repair videos for each of their e-bikes covering the common issues/problems they get asked about. There's currently 39 videos just for your specific T1 here. This one shows you where to stick...

I'm curious to know why you're trying to do this. Don't all trainers like these have Bluetooth and/or ANT+ built in to transmit speed, power, cadence etc that link to Apps - even non-subscription/free/generic ones? Even my particularly crap Halfords-bought one has that basic functionality. A...

I haven't read the whole thread because I can't be bothered, and notwithstanding all sensible logic suggests your battery appears totally knackered anyway... but IIRC isn't this the Halfords STL battery that had problems charging through the charge port, whereupon Halfords supplied a "charging...

Yes, but the point is they are all in financial difficulties due to a lack of demand... EVE is typical, not the exception. As that video also confirms, the difference is that many Chinese cell makers have Government support behind them since Chinese overcapacity is largely of their Governments...

Exactly. You brought the viability of EVE as a brand into question. In June BMW cancelled a very significant cell order from Northvolt, one of Europes largest lithium cell producers based in Sweden, and just in the last few days it's being reported that Northvolt have ceased production and in...

That's indicative of the Lithium industry across the world, not just EVE and not just in China... dare we mention the fiasco that was Britishvolt (and others in the US and across Europe that already have gone bust)? They're all in trouble because of low demand. Here's the performance of one of...
