Where are you?

I use an ordinary spanner, religiously. I pull it up to where I think it should be and pray.

So far everything points to a knackered battery. I'm guessing that you were looking for a different answer?

As I said in the other thread, I don't think the OP presently has enough basic electrical knowledge to handle combining lipo's safely. As for them balancing in parallel, it's important to ensure that they start off at the same SOC, or you could get trouble.

Oh, I see. But, you don't have an electric vehicle, you have an EAPC.

I've never heard of a law that says you cant ride on a road above 50mph limit? Where did you get this information from (I could be wrong, just would like to clarify). What you need is a 'Buck' Converter, aka DC-DC converter. Make sure you get one with a 50v capacitor (or more) on the front end...

I've done all the above on ally frames. Not broken one yet. Steel would be even stronger.

In my experience, ordinary mountain bike hub/spokes/rims used by a heavy rider in a sensible way (on road) are fine. I have had mine loaded up with close to 200k and not broken anything.

I bought this cruiser with a conversion in mind, however it will need a few mods before its suitable. The brakes are frighteningly poor. It has a side pull brake on the front (nearly useless) back pedal on the rear (better but not great) . It's also single speed, so would really need at least a...

So, I decided they would look better on the cruiser.

I agree with Flecc. 12 miles is good going.

Well you are light, but that bike is heavy. No pedalling will kill your range, but 10 Miles is pretty poor. What bike is it?

10ah should be good for about 20 miles if: You weigh less than about 80 kilos You put in a bit of effort yourself You don't have massive hills/headwinds. You have a 250w (15a) motor

Whit basic equipment and a little knowledge. You need to be able to measure current, and voltage at the same time (two meters, or a watt meter), then stick a large load on it so that you can draw around 10 amps. I have used a few electric heaters in parallel before now, but a single element cut...

Firstly, it's important to recognise that it's Watts that you really care about. Watts (W) = power Watt/hour (Wh) = capacity .....and..... W=V x A This means that a 48v battery running at 10a is producing 480w. A 36v battery running 13.3a is the same amount of power. Assuming both motors...

Doesn't he ride a white swan?

No, just adjust the pad position each time you change, easy job.

No, just adjust the pad position each time you change, easy job.

I've done it. You may have to adjust the brakes a bit, as the un-powered wheel will sit further into the dropouts. You don't say if you have discs or rim brakes, but with rim brakes (eg v-brakes) it will be easy. With discs, worst case you'll need a couple of washers if the disc hits the inside...

If you already have a bike you like you could convert it. The big advantage of this is that you can chop and change things until they meet your needs.
