That will be ok for your PCs.

PCs? My question was do I need special battery for 300W motor of Kalkhoff Pro Connect S ?

 

[tillson]

Sorry, PCs = Pro (P) Connect (C) s.

50 Cycles the UK Kalkhoff dealer supply that battery new with the 300 W Pro Connect s, so it will be ok.

Tillson used the abbreviation PCs for the Pro Connect S.

I believe it uses the same battery as the standard bikes. However, I am not absolutely certain since the 300 watt unit on the Flyer X bike uses a special 15 Ah battery and it's Panasonic unit has a wider battery base for that.

If your Pro Connect S was supplied with a 10 Ah, 12 Ah or 18 Ah battery, it's the standard fitting and the battery in that advert will fit.

N.B. Crossed with Tillson's further post.

Crossed with flecc. I would advise you to take notE of what he says. He knows a lot more than me about these things.

I have 10Ah battery with a sticker "for 300W motor only".

I have 10Ah battery with a sticker "for 300W motor only".

I don't know why it has that sticker on it. If possible check with the supplier of your bike.

 

[flecc]

I agree, that is ambiguous.

It could either mean the battery platform on your bike is the larger type like the Flyer X bike has, or it could mean the battery is altered to match the higher motor power rating.

A check with the bike supplier is essential before buying a replacement.

The word from Cloppenburg is that the 18Ah battery is perfectly compatible with either motor set up.
