Wait! So this guy's gone out and bought 6 Dewalt torches, giving himself all sorts of headaches, to replace his bike battery?
Why?

O.K. I'm humbled, the guy's an artist. That's the kind of design imagination and styling that's needed to bring E.V.'s to the main stream. And exactly what I lack.

6 torches plus 6 chargers plus 6 batteries = £700. That's a very expensive battery. Jimmy could have welded him up one the same size with double the capacity for a lot less than that.

I love how in the the first part he says "so I should have about 30 Amps..." Er no that is a 60 V, 10 Ah battery you have made sir!

He is an artist I'll give him that, the layout of the batteries is very aesthetically pleasing in a steam punk kind of way. And the leather bags at the back matching the shape of the frame shows a keen eye for detail. I think that god, er Steeve Jobs, made the iPod with headphones for the peace of pedestrians and passing squirrels... I really don't want to hear your music I have my own thank you very much!

Does he mean amps for the motor rather than amp-hours or range?

I had the impression from listening to him that he didn't really know what he was talking about...
