    Has the poor Southern Rail service influenced your Pedelec purchase

    I do not think you can average 20 MPH through London ( probably in any vehicle ). For an ebike on open A roads that average would be a challenge but in heavy traffic ? The savings will make a lot of sense, £ 1900 will get you a good bike then some nice holidays each year after that.

    Ebike vs Road bike

    After watching your video Youtube offers me "Baba Yenga-Best golden buzzer audition in BELGIUM's got talent" So much for me to do, so little time to do it in. Do not view as it is shite.

    Ebike vs Road bike

    The couple of times that I have encountered road cyclists they leave me standing. All have said hello or waived though, must be you townies with your cheating electric bikes that upset them.

    DIY Lithium 18650 Battery 5 part video

    Post 3, was that the one by D Trump ? It is common knowledge that if you only CC your batteries as the cheap Chinese lamp chargers do, ( d8veh best light style, funny that ) you get 80 - 90 % capacity but the batteries last much longer as you do not peak the batteries voltage. I could post...

    Think this is what you want. You will need to check the usb connection, there are different ones, fit a 2.1 mm plug but this will work http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-Charger-DC-Converter-Module-12V-To-5V-3A-15W-with-Micro-USB-Cable-2-Leads-/181202073503?hash=item2a307c379f:g:b00AAOSwAvJXB2DX...

    Ebike derestrictor

    With your Arduino the ratio is 1:1 up to 15 MPH then you keep it at what ever frequency equates to 15 MPH ? This then keeps your mileage and gear change information near as possible to correct ? The problem with the shift register is that everything is halved, and we all want to show how many...

    DIY Lithium 18650 Battery 5 part video

    This is what experts say. Most Li-ions charge to 4.20V/cell, and every reduction in peak charge voltage of 0.10V/cell is said to double the cycle life. For example, a lithium-ion cell charged to 4.20V/cell typically delivers 300–500 cycles. If charged to only 4.10V/cell, the life can be...

    Battery advice

    Carry on. No memory with these batteries, that is a different technology. Charge them when you want.

    Help with mud please

    Now you know why the rest of us are always going on about our eMTBs. They are great. A few photos would be lovely, dirty or clean. I have not seen any of your make of bike on here. I wash the worst of the dirt off with a sponge and bucket, using a watering can to take the bits off. The only...

    Battery DIY.

    I have to laugh out loud when I read some of the "information" on here. Below is a link to a BMS circuit, you will see it connects individually to each battery in the pack. I have not read through this all but it would be a labour of love to split a spot welded battery pack and then fit a BMS...
