    Ride through Telford Town park and Race with Crank-drive Bike

    To me it looked like guy was minding his own business and just making sure he won't get into your way. If you want a race just say it so all participants are aware what is going on.

    Battery Fires

    Some good points were raised though. If it is illegal to use, government should not allow sale. Same is in UK with electric scooters. You can buy them, but practically can't use anywhere.

    Battery Fires

    Worst thing is that there were so many fires and not even a single case was properly analyzed and data published to learn from.

    Help! First time conversion - Manchester

    I really love my TSDZ8, but for commuting only, a 250W rear hub with 48V 500W KT controller would be my preferred choice. As a donor I would choose full size hybrid bike. TSDZ8 is better for leisure and off road tracks. Having said all that I use TSDZ8 for commuting as well and it works just fine.

    Injuries With Electric vs Conventional Scooters and Bicycles

    I think it is safe to assume white people end up in hospitals more often after e-bike related accidents as I have not seen that many black people on e-bikes, but lets study 87k cases and find out for sure. Why not? Now all what we need is adequate funding for our study.

    How many scientists and how many studies does it take to come to obvious conclusions?

    Hi from occasional ebiker.

    If I were you I would just add bigger battery as Seneagle said. 15Ah or even 20Ah would make a massive difference. Cost around £200.

    And todays idiots are

    Well... it is true. Drivers/cyclists don't stop even when they see a woman with little children crossing road on zebra crossing. ...after that they will probably open a thread on random forum "Look idiot with kids crossing the road" and include dashcam video.

    I gave you the link above, but I will copy/paste relevant fragment for your convenience. Of course nobody ever will advice you to cross the road with eyes closed, but you still can do that and die under truck knowing it was drivers fault.

    36v battery with 48v motor

    It is because you don't follow invention log and you are not familiar with whole catapult/ejection system prepared to act in case of early stages of thermal runaway.

    36v battery with 48v motor

    TSDZ8 is set to 16A by default as far as I remember, so not that much more than yours. I wish there was a visible power usage on display.

    36v battery with 48v motor

    14A and 48V means you have quite powerful "250W" :) No wonder it flies

    Car Jump Starter as backup pedelec battery?

    Don't complicate simple things. It sounds like you need a bigger bike battery. Bike battery, not a pocket size powerbank.

    Government announces Bill to combat e-bike battery fire risks

    I am more annoyed by ESF popping up with helpful hand every time. Yeah... it was kind of a rhetorical question :)

    36v battery with 48v motor

    It is a fantastic price for a battery with Samsung cells. Don't worry, it will probably take some time for government to mess things up. ...just don't wait to long lol
