Welcome to ES! Search for cammy or vpower. You'll get quite a few hits and no doubt some opinions of the quality of thier batteries and service.\ If you do end up getting a battery from them, or anyone else for that matter, post back to let us know how it went and what you think.

Any comments on the reported fire fighting techniques?

My two variable experience, heavy Michlen tires and Nitrogen from Costco, on a Toyota Tacoma Prerunner is at 35 PSI the stuff doesn't leak out between 3000 to 8000 tire rotations. I can also drive around with screws in the tires without repairing them. I live in Dallas, Texas U.S.A, so gas...

Search for Magura. It is not a half grip, but I think some have converted it. You'll note that some specical mods are needed to make it work in most cases. If you are OK with the price and work involved, it may be what you are looking for. Here is one link...

Amberwolf, My wife and I are both greatly saddened to see this. I know at least some of your dogs from previous posts and how much you loved them. You share so much of your life here, so I know you are strong and I don't worry about you surviving this as devestating as it is. From the posts...

I have a code 13 36v 350W I bought years ago from BMS Battery. It does 18 mph on 36v Bosch Fat Packs (41V fully charged). Good luck on your purchase and keep us posted. I've really enjoyed mine. It is very quiet and starts smoothly despite being sensorless.

Does your BPM have hall sensors? If it does, you may be able to try running it sensorless to see if it is a hall sensor problem. I think the KU controllers have an option for sensorless mode.

I'm glad you were not hurt seriously. Going down at 40km under the best of circumstances is usually not a pretty picture. High siding (going over the front) is the least fun way to go down. You must be quite the acrobat.

Thanks for the heads up Doctorbass. That was very cool. It reminded me of listening to the Gemini and Apollo missions when I was a kid.

Best wishes from Texas and hoping for a complete and speedy recovery.

I'm sure it happens to many of us. I hope your mother and wife take joy in the moments your attention is distracted by something you so enjoy so much.

+1 for the Maxxis Hookworm on the broken wheel. I have them on both ends. I run a 8fun BPM code 13 at low power (20-24 mph). For me these tires are comfortable and have resisted the flats my high end, but light, MTB tires got from even tiny thorns. My guess is the fellow in the video will...

It is great to see you back. I'm sorry to hear of your back problems. I'm am pretty blessed on that front, but my wife has suffered terribly. I like your doctor's advice to work on posture, exercise, etc., and that you are taking it. Surgery can really help, but it is a toss of the dice and...

Search for "king charger". These are pretty good for the price. Similar looking devices are sold with different names. I bought mine at bmsbattery.com. You might search for 'bmsbattery" too to get reports on dealing with them. This will at least give you something to look at and you may...
