You're right! Radio Shack was a total bust. So I went to Frys Electronics and found some yellow Nylon insulated 10-12 ga spade connectors. I went looking for the Anderson or bullets and couldn't find anything. There is no amp rating on these spade connectors, so I'm a little concerned. They're...

Good question! I haven't made the final connections in the battery box yet. It's raining here today, so I'll head over to radio shack to by some connectors in a bit. When that's done I'll put the lid on and be ready to go tomorrow, when we are supposed to have better weather.

Hi all, Well I picked up my LiNiMnCo Battery 36V 15Ah 540Wh, 30A rate from batteryspace yesterday. (Nice people to deal with btw.). I've loaded it into the old evglobal battery case, using some styrofoam sheets I cut to fit the bottom, sides and a short filler in front. It actually fits this...

You're right, I've already removed the existing charger, knowing it wouldn't work. I bought a 3amp charger from the same fellow who sold me the battery. I figure doing so would avoid any compatibility issues. I like the idea of making the old plug work with the new charger! The charger comes...

Thanks for the idea, but making a battery pack, particularly one "well designed" is beyond my knowledge. I don't know where I'd start, and if I were to figure it out my confidence level in it would be limited.

Thanks for the comment! The extra range should be great. And the new battery (270 mm(10.6") x 84 mm(3.3") x 82 mm (3.2") is going to fit inside the evglobal rugged ( 12 x 4 x 4 ) battery box with its great handle. So it's going to be protected.

Hello all, Thanks for the guidance. I ordered this today from batteryspace: http://www.batteryspace.com/linimnco-battery-36v-15ah-540wh-30a-rate.aspx It's made of 30pcs of LiNiMnCo 26650 5Ah cells. Cost was $400. I went with batteryspace for two reasons. They seem trusted by this community...

Marcelo thanks for the link. However the size on those don't seem to work. According to the site: Dimensions: 5.94x2.55x3.74 in. I'd need three in a 12x4x4 in space.

Hey skeetab, Thanks for your quick reply! i see what you're saying about the battery box, and here was my thinking. The bike is going to be stored in a 3 sided carport, like a garage but no door. So while it will be chained up, it will be exposed to passers by. So I want to be able to easily...

Hello all, my name is Robert, and I've got a 36 volt evglobal bike that I want to get back on the road. I also want to stay with the stock bike. I liked it many years ago with the SLA and thought the power was more than adequate. I also want to keep the new battery in the original removable...
