GTech escent modification

[Finchy]

Are you fed up with having to take your hand off the handlebars to switch the battery on or off or change from ECO to MAX mode. I was, so I made and fitted a lever operated power on/off feature without taking my hands off the handlebars. I fitted an additional lever on the left hand side of the handlebars and use a cable operated bellcrank lever fitted with a M5 screw which contacts the green button on the battery and support brackets are mounted to the battery. It works well and also gives me about another 3 miles out of one battery charge. One short pull on the lever puts the power on and one long pull of four seconds switch the power off. Photographs attached showing the mechanism.
