    cost of operating!

    You depreciated the battery, but forgot to depreciate the car. The car loses surprising amount of value every day and every mile. Kelley Blue Book Good Condition 2008 Honda Civic Si Sedan 4D 30,000 mi = $17,505 40,000 mi = $16,805 ($700 for 10,000 mi) 50,000 mi = $16,080 ($725 for 10,000...

    i am new wont turn on without charger attached

    I am glad the battery bag with the key-switch fixed the issue. So strange how these things work sometimes.

    Will China's new ruling lower the price of Lithium packs?

    China's new e-bike regulation could basically end the use of lead acid battery packs for most e-bikes. I was there this summer and Lithium bikes are getting very completive. Here is a recap, links to videos and other news sources about this topic...

    i am new wont turn on without charger attached

    Hi, The way I understand the situation, it appears that the controller may be tripping the BMS when it is turned on. This leads me to believe that the controller's switch circuit acts almost like a short for a split second until it's fully powered up. It is likely designed for SLA battery packs...

    i am new wont turn on without charger attached

    Hi, there could be 2 situations were this could happen: The first is that the battery is not very well connected to the controller. If there is any sort of spark or arc, the BMS will shut down the battery as it is bad to draw big currents from LiFePO4 Cells. It is not exactly clear how it is...

    Juiced Riders - LiFeP04 48V15Ah Max Legal Test w/video

    Hi Wasp, I believe this is possible to connect in parallel. But we never tried it. Normally a custom battery pack is made along with a proper BMS. I will speak with the engineer to get more details about the different configurations. -Tora

    Juiced Riders - LiFeP04 48V15Ah Max Legal Test w/video

    Mike, Yep, thats cheap folder. But it works amazingly well once you get it setup. But here is a hint: throw ALL the parts away and change to proper components. This bike is not made to go nearly 30mph. We use it for testing. It's nice that it folds and we found 20" wheels are the great size...

    Scout run by the lake video

    dwwEXvzJP6g This was just a quick run to test a different GPS tracking app, make the initial trip on a new LiFePO4 pack and scout out this route. There was quite a lot of wind, but still a decent location to make up & backs. There is nice scenery and not too many cars. We will try to make more...

    Juiced Riders - LiFeP04 48V15Ah Max Legal Test w/video

    I agree, anything (speaking of LiFePO4) much smaller than 36 V 20 Ah or the 48V 15Ah might just be too small. Anything much bigger is a little too bulky. A real-world 30 miles (48 km) is right about the point where you stop caring so much about range and just ride how you like. We are happy...
