    Diy solderless 18650 battery kit.

    When I pull a pack apart I find the battery contacts all most pushed together,not much spring action. Don't know how many times you would be able to pull up on the contacts before they would snap. Instead of cable ties round the pack I decided to drill the holders and bolt them together.Someone...

    UK legal rear hub 48 volt kit?

    I think you both have just made a lot of bikes and kits sold in the UK illegal. Must say I agree, what is a mode if its not a few button presses. I think you should take your 48 battery apart and reconfigure the cells to 36v using the Vruzend DIY 18650 battery kit. Sent from my D101 using...

    Did you customise your first purchase?

    The only things I kept on my bike was the back end of the frame and the rear rack.

    Diy solderless 18650 battery kit.

    That doesn't look like a balance charger. I thought balance chargers had balance leads and a screen to monitor each cell. I have made my kit in to two 5p 5s batteries. I'm using a IMAX b6 to charge them. Does an one know what is a step up from the IMAX ?

    Diy solderless 18650 battery kit.

    Yeh I have a bit of oxidisation on my one of my lawn mower batteries. No problem getting it off the contact point with a bit of sand paper. This would be a little more difficult to do on the vruzend spring,but nothing a wire brush on a dremel wouldn't cope with. The ultimate reusable battery...

    Doubts over e-mtb requiring type approval requirements

    A off road motorcycle does not need type approval to ride or race off road. Example in a organized race or on land with no public access and the land owners permission. But it does need to be registered etc to ride on the road. Sent from my D101 using Tapatalk

    Doubts over e-mtb requiring type approval requirements

    I think it will mean it will be easier to register a emtb for road use.Not sure but I think you can register a off road motorcycle for road use without MSVA.Just form filling and prof/ dates of manufacture and a home inspection or maybe you go to the MSVA test centre for a part test.I don't...

    Diy solderless 18650 battery kit.

    Going to have a play with my lawn mower batteries now they are out of warranty. I will make two 22v 6s4p batteries with lipo alarms,so I can charge them with a imax b6.And hook them up together in parallel. I also fancy using them in a go cart for my grandson. The batteries you mention sound...
