new bottle battery cannot be removed from frame cage easily

[footpump]

hello all I recently purchased a 10.4 bottle battery from ebay Germany but I have just noticed it may be rather fiddily to remove battery from the frame mount.

battery is made by www.yosepower.com product scroll to number 2 product yose-k this shows a picture of the bottle mount and base of battery.

battery comes with 4 pin male type din plug lead so attatch to battery, lead through base of mount ,battery locks into place.

however if I wanted to remove it I would have to undo the knurled screw threaded din plug (unlock and pull battery up)

then to refit have to attach lead again as its underneath the mount it seems a very weird idea. lead terminates in bullet connectors.

your input and ideas please in case I have missed something obvious

sorry all do not know how to post link.


thank you

Sorry to be the giver of bad news, but that's how that particular battery connects I'm afraid. No docking station!

I have been living happily with one since June. No problem removing if you leave a little slack in the wire. Lift battery out then unscrew the nut. Easy!

In also had one for over 2 years without issue

I did same as another kiwi

Another lift the battery out the holder before you unplug here.... The recess is too deep and awkward to do it in situ.

thanks all for the tips were your bottle batteries yosepower?

slightly off topic I emailed them as regards what cells were in my battery but received no reply

 

[anotherkiwi]

Mine is a "mxus" sold by ciclotek but they all come from the same factories and my cells are Samsung (yes I did open it)

 

[KirstinS]

Mine were Panasonic

(Also opened to be sure)
