I understand that solar or wind is not really sensible (cost factor) to be used to charge the batteries for our e-assist, but when OFF GRID, I believe that a gas generator would cost more to charge the batteries to make them sensible to use the e-bikes.
I would like to know from the knowledgeable people from this forum what I would need to be able to charge a couple of e-bike batteries. The batteries in question would be 60V, 20AmP and a 48V, 10AmP. We have a 2400 gas generator and will be in Norther Ontario in September so not so direct sunlight for solar panels. A local Store has a sale on a 600 watt wind turbine http://www.canadiantire.ca/AST/brow...rator,+600W.jsp?locale=en#tab_page_reviews_li and another local store has different watt solar panel kits for under $1000 http://www.princessauto.com/all-sea.../8355166-130-watt-polycrystalline-solar-panel
When we are off grid, camping in the middle of no-where, our camper has 12 volt deep-cycle RV-Marine batteries (X2) as a battery bank. we could increase it with another 2 batteries. Now what type of setup would be required to be able to charge both bike batteries on a daily basis. Just thinking about using the normal battery charges (for each battery) and inverters for this year.
Any ideas and suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks Tom
