    Are my old batt chargers worth selling?

    Have a nice sunpower 12V/30A supply and venom 6S balance charger but don't know about my old, 3-4yrs? EMC 400 chargers and an EMC 600 watt charger. They all have Anderson connectors, 1 for 15S 63.2V/5A, 1 for 18S 75.6/3.67A, and the 600 watt is to fast charge the 18S up to73.8V/6A. Then can be...

    West Coast US Events

    Missed 'ya Dave. I charged up a passle of 6S lipos and had 'em handy for you at Grange. You had best clomb on to those lipos soon, I started to chunk the $750 lipos into the dumpster at Grange but hesitated. The 10 lipo bricks have negative value to me, just taking up room in my smallish work...

    bairdco racing at adams, september 15, 2012

    Outstanding races; what impresses me most is the level of building innovation in the months beforehand. 1st, one must have a real 'electrical' background, then one must have a concept, dedicate himself to the concept, and lastly show up and prove their concept against others. Thanks...

    Rather tight heart gripping races. Lots of lead changes. Bumped my power/handling performance up but found everyone else did the same. Goat heat sticker thorn plantation. 3 class racing worked out. Incredulious crash right in front of me, missed by inches, lucky he (Chase) was young and unhurt...

    Unless someone has grabbed a new number this summer, these are open E-numbers (does it matter at Bairdcos?) #102, 105, 107, 118-122, 125-129, 5th grade deductive math tells you which numbers are taken :P Have a couple of extra 6S 6Ahr lipos & 1 5S 8Ahr brick. Available if needed 600W 18S...

    Anyone done a carbon fibre ebike ?

    I've just rode a 'Century Ride' on my dept store schwinn e-commuter. A few folks laughed and yelled 'Cheater!' but being a charity run, folks were OK with my electric. Interesting, the local bike shop manager and I traded places for around 30 miles thru the mounains. He killed me on the...

    2 Stroke E-chaser

    Settled on the Schwalbe Big Apples as they were closer to being slicks than the Kiniptions, though both look good. Both the stock tires and the BAs are stated to be 2.15". The stock ones measure 1 & 13/16" wide with a diameter of 24". The BAs measure 2 & 1/16" wide with a diameter of 24 & 3/8"...

    2 Stroke E-chaser

    The 4 5S 8Ahr lipo bricks can power 12-15 racing laps but voltage would sag below 64V. Another 4 smaller 5Ahr bricks should keep the voltage up to 68volts to the checkered flag. The 4 5S 8Ahr lipos are in series for nominal 74V just as the smaller 4 5S 5Ahr lipo bricks are. The 2 series packs...

    2 Stroke E-chaser

    I’ve pushed the lyen 6FET controlled to its’ limit, 30A up to 84V(20S), maybe as high as 2.5K off the line at the June16 Baird race. For 40Amps, Ed (Lyen) sent me his MarkII 12FET sensorless controller housed in a bigger box; can you say bigger ‘heatsink?’ Though I'm suspious above 35A for the...

    2 Stroke E-chaser

    A pleasure Dogmanz, We'll race as senior racers and both finish upright. One of the novice moped guys T-boned me at Grange. I was so surprised that I didn't try to put a foot out, just thought I'd slide a little and regain control. He caught me straight on right behind the BB so my elbow/hip...

    Day 7 beefing up motor phase wires In peak performance situations, one electric weakness is hot motor phase wires. Getting 12ga wires thru the axel was a challenge which I botched. In the struggle to fit 12ga I removed a clear layer of insulation. When trying to force the wire thru the...

    Need torque arm advice

    Well well, happen to have an extra Grin torque arm. I ordered 2 and the idea of 'modding my wide 150mm Chinese bike drop out area' came to fruation. Check your PM. Will Dogmanz, now that's a functional racing 9C drop out :!: And check the 2 Stroke E-chaser thread...

    2 Stroke E-chaser

    http://www.premiumelectricbikes.com/green-cruiser/ Keep in mind that components are pretty cheap; seat, seatstem, chainring, headset, controller ect. . . I probably ripped 'bout 20' of wiring out of it. Nice shifter, throttle OK, good spokes, itsy bytsy motor good for 16mph@15A.
