    I'd like your thoughts and suggestions on this guys.... 1) green plugs: This is just kind of a novelty idea, but I thought it would be neat (and I'm sure Lynda agrees) if we had green mains plugs on our CycleCharge battery chargers (perhaps with a white-on-transparent logo motif) so that it...

    CycleCharge Project - Announcements & Discussions

    Like he said, not very practical in UK with our weather, the high cost of panels, and amount of voltage and current needed, the best you achieve is a trickle charge over many days, unless you spend a fortune. However, I had an interesting call this week from a successful Israeli business man in...

    Sorry guys the CycleCharge site is down for a while as we transition to a new more advanced server and website. I'll put a temporary site page up asap, but it will take a few days < week, to get the new Web 3.0 website established. The old site was hosted on very antiquated hardware and...

    Following on from this earlier post, I have now managed to get some pics of the new CycleCharge Li-ion batteries. They don't have housings yet, nor professional labels, but at least this gives you an idea of build quality and size. From left to right: 24V10Ah, and 36V10Ah Lithium-Ion batteries...

    It has been slow indeed Daniel, but we're making steady progress thanks to the forum members efforts. I think now I'm back to my old self (almost) I can put my energy and effort into getting more Charge Points established. As you pointed out, one of the main problems is a) e-bike's are quite...

    That's very interesting about the Radio Amateurs and an excellent idea for CycleCharge. I've always thought it would be great if we can get enough Charge Points to do some kind of event or challenge to see who can travel the furthest by e-bike using the Points! Perhaps we can do a charity event...

    Another CycleCharge battery update... I will post some pics soon of the early batteries shortly off my phone. Myself, and a leading bicycle manufacturer have been using and testing these batteries and the chargers and I wanted to make sure they're safe and reliable before we started offering...

    Oh I forgot to mention.. the batteries under the CycleCharge brand are Lithium-Ion and the chargers look very similar to laptop's in size and weight/function, and are practically water-resistant with no fans or exposed areas, so ideal for carrying on bikes or in backpacks. Although the cheap...

    BMS Li-Ion Battery died < 2.5 years usage...advice?

    Thanks Dave, I'll have a read up and see what can be done.. I have some electronics experience and plenty of parts, so maybe I'll come up with a clever solution that leaves the battery entirely sealed and an outside inline cabled reset option button. But for now, the reset slide switch I've...

    BMS Li-Ion Battery died < 2.5 years usage...advice?

    UPDATE: While the battery was charging I began resealing/taping the battery with selotape and accidently knocked the reset slider switch to off (opening the white wire). Charging stopped immediately, but no apparent damage was caused. I slided it back within a few seconds, and charging...

    BMS Li-Ion Battery died < 2.5 years usage...advice?

    Got it. I carefully unsealed your tape handy work, spotted the white wire from your photo above, and unsoldered it (after first disconnecting the multipin connector). Then I soldered an in-line slide switch between the white wire and the solder pad where the white wire was soldered to. This...

    BMS Li-Ion Battery died < 2.5 years usage...advice?

    Is that the blue wire you unsoldered Dave which seem to reset the BMS and allow charging?

    BMS Li-Ion Battery died < 2.5 years usage...advice?

    Hi David, no knee joint replacement for me..my age is against it too young at (41) plus my PVNS is not severe enough to affect joint so I ended having a synovectomy of the knee lining with open surgery.. I was (fortunate?) to only have localised PVNS so the knee joint itself is ok for now..but...

    My first ride in 7? months

    Ok will do, that doesn't sound too promising. And I know from experience Bluetooth (in its present incarnation even BT 3.0) is not too reliable as a communication interface/for data transfer, unless the devices are VERY close. I just got the very latest (modest bluetooth headset in the world...
