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...

The higher the capacity the more range you'll get per charge, so it's up to you. You need to see if your existing charger has a compatible plug; if not, it's best to add one to your order for just a couple of quid more. As a general rule, the display isn't likely to be compatible with your...

Looks like a standard Phylion SF-03 version to me. Try this 10.4Ah, includes free shipping to UK - £168 + taxes (added at checkout)... a little more if you need a charger (it looks like a standard barrel plug, not Phylions 5-pin). Phylion Joycube SF-03 36V Rear Rack Battery 10.4Ah 12Ah 12.8Ah...

That may be news to BMW, Daimler and Kia/Hyundai who use EVE cells for their EV's!

From my own usage, I would say they are. EVE LiFePO4 cells are used in a number of power stations, including my own Aferiy 1200Wh and 2400Wh... and I've been slogging all 3 of them to death, so far 100% reliably... and Aferiy offer a 7 year warranty to 80% capacity too, so they must have...

The TranzX DP15 display is the one without a speed display, isn't it (it shows battery level and assist level only)? Cycling 2 miles - say 10 minutes - before the bike switches off suggests the controller isn't picking up the fact the bike is moving. If you had a speed display it would be...

They're all credible, well liked choices. Seeing as they're all supplied by Halfords, why don't you avail yourself of their try-before-you-buy test rides and, on the basis you'll likely be buying one of the three, see which one you prefer most?

My feeling is it's an intermittent power fault - I'd focus on connections between battery, cradle, and controller. The reason the bike totally dies rather than simply blips out temporarily is that TranzX systems perform a boot cycle when switched on that takes a few seconds... it's akin to a...

You could probably add a kit to your existing bike, but if that's beyond your ability and/or you'd prefer a separate factory made e-bike, you need to consider what parts/service/support may be available - especially at the lower end of the price spectrum. Many of the cheaper bikes available...

I have the same motor in a different bike. If yours is anything like mine (i.e. Freego didn't modify the software/controller) you should be able to use anything that works with the common-place BBSxx motors, including the thumb throttles and the Apps for increasing/changing performance/parameters.

Even fit people have trouble trying to get that up hills - belt drive and no gears and a torque sensor. It's the worst possible combination IMO.

No, they only have the smaller wheeled one in stock... it says delivery 2-3 weeks for the bigger wheel, so that implies they're waiting new stock. Having seen and been impressed by the low-step version of this bike in the flesh, I'd go for an Eleglide too... it's a lot of bike for the money.

I disagree. You may recall we had a muppet - sorry - a member here who insisted he could find no TranzX-able bike shops within reasonable travel distance of his home to service a TranzX bike for "his friend". Out of curiosity I spent maybe an hour calling a few, and of those who were prepared to...

There's no such thing. There are at least 3 profile/case versions of a Phylion rear rack battery, and each has 2 BMS variants: most are not interchangeable with the others. Post photos of the rear of the battery showing the profile and slots, and another of the battery label... that will narrow...

Plenty of bikes use the same battery but don't use the comms at all, and others like yours it seems won't run without them so it's going back to sleep. What we do know is some Halfords bikes use Phylion comms to display the battery percent charge, and we know dealers use the comms to check the...

IMHO, you're wasting your time. You're assuming your BMS is dead... have you tried manually charging the cells up to 42v? You're also assuming it's CANbus. IMHO, the age makes it far more likely UART communications. It's VERY unlikely you'll find a proper-fit/comms-compatible BMS unless it's...

Did you check your charger? It should measure/have an output of 42v.

40.7v is low for a fully charged battery... fresh off the charger it should measure better than 41.5v. I'd open it up and check for weak cells/cell strings.
