    Does anyone make money out of me?

    I know of three forums that charge you £10 to £15 a year for the privilege of posting messages :eek: and they still run adverts

    What's the difference between 230v circuit breakers and 12v ones

    I want to connect a couple of circuit breakers on the leads from my 12 volt leisure battery, could I use 230 volt ones? is there a difference as I see that the 12 volt ones seem to be about 7 or 8 times the price of 230 volt ones. thanks :o

    Which folding bike?

    Usually in this section. I paid £399 for mine which was the going price at the time, I'd just missed an offer where they were down near £300 and after buying missed a couple of 10% offers, however I think this created a bit of a demand and imagine that is the reason for the £499 price now...

    Which folding bike?

    I have a cyclamatic foldaway and am pleased with it so far. I think it is very similar to most other folders on the market that cost in the £700-900 region. If you can afford to wait it may be possible to use one of the many discount codes that sportshq seem to have most weeks, someone on...

    What size invertor do I need?

    Thanks again, I had thought the Waeco looked like a quality product. Just one more question if you don't mind, Would the next model up (350W) consumne more power than the 150W one whilst powering something requiring around 50 watts ?

    What size invertor do I need?

    Thanks Fecn that's perfect :) My charger output is 29.4v at 2A so 70.5 watts with the 20%. I have now read several times that Laptop transformers don't like modified sine-wave invertors and pure sine wave is needed, hence the reason I'm looking at pure-sine wave. I'm looking to get one...

    What size invertor do I need?

    I have ended up with a 230 volt TV for my Campervan, rated power consumption is 45 watts, so I'm looking at a 150 watt pure sine wave inverter. For short periods of use with a 110ah battery with support from a 60 watt solar panel. Now the real question is will this be enough for my ebike...

    Help to find a bike that needs little energy

    I have to agree with that Dave, it gives a massive boost of feel good chemicals to the brain that whilst not a cure do ease the symptoms a little. I'm looking forward to summer when I can hopefully ride some of the old railway lines and maybe along the sea-front.

    Help to find a bike that needs little energy

    I expected to use just the throttle, but in all honesty I find gentle pedalling easier and more comfortable than just sitting there twisting the throttle. Subjectively riding the bike feels easier than walking, but recovery afterwards tells a different story, however it is fantastic to be on...

    Help to find a bike that needs little energy

    I have M.E too and during the cooler winter can walk a fair bit further than 1/2 a mile, however in the summer I'd do very well to reach 1/2 a mile. I've just bought a Cyclamtic Foldaway for exactly the same reason. Bearing in mind I used to be a club level cyclist a few years ago at the...

    It gives you a go anywhere attitude, any hill no problem, in fact hills are where an ebike feels most at home.
