I asked him if I could buy one, and have not received a response yet.

I made a ducted fan attachment, and a 16" car fan attachment. The larger fan was a far superior option in power, sound, and function.

Cool, where's the other video?

PMP cranks do not work. The Aerobicle does work as you can see it functioning in the video, but their claims of efficiency should be backed up with evidence for verification. You can see it working, I have made a number that work as well. The question is how well they work.

I couldn't get that whole comment in as it was more characters than allowed, the person in charge of the channel also seemed to be very opposed to any critical comments (which is very unfortunate), and so I tried to make it nice in hopes that they would respond to it. "I have been building fan...

Having built a number of fan systems that I have put on the back of my bike, I can tell you that it is a lot of fun, but none of the ones that I have made have come anywhere close to matching the efficiency of Ebikes. They have been fun though. It is a different feeling and experience. I have...

I am just guessing that it is clicking off at 12V, but I don't know how to check what volt it is clicking off at. I was under the impression that I had to disconnect it from a power source before checking the voltage.

I have not checked it with a volt meter.... I have A LOT to learn, and I am not sure what type of volt meter I would need :( I am not sure if something like this would work...

As a side note, does anyone know where I can get some A123 batteries? It sounds like cellman is no longer selling them as far as I understand fromm looking through the threads...

Thank you very much for your help!! I think from what I have been reading, that I would definitely want a cellLog8, and a new BMS.

Perfect, just need to replace the BMS and than I should be good to go.

I don't think that I was overcharging the lifepo4 battery, I basically just had a 12V fan, and when I plugged it into the liFepo4 battery, it didn't work, but when I plugged it into the Nimh, it did. It was a brand new battery, so I am guessing that it was the limitation of the BMS.

It's a round cell pack from BatterySpace. It's very similar to the model shown below, but my battery pack says 20.4Ah while their packs now say 19.8Ah: http://www.batteryspace.com/LiFePO4-26650-Battery-12.8V-19.8Ah-253Wh-32A-rate-w/-PCB-CU-MM173-PID.aspx I am going to use this pack to power...

Thanks! The CellLog 8S looks like a great device that also works on LiFe batteries. Do you think that I could just replace the BMS on my LiFe battery with a CellLog 8S to be able to run at 12V, or should I get LiPo cells to run with it? I really like this device though, thanks for the tip...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone had a suggestion on a light and safe 12V 40AH battery pack that I could use. I am currently using three 12V 10AH Nimh packs, and I think the best choice for what I need is Lipo (although I am worried about the fire risk from overcharging). I have a 40AH 13.3V...
