    What's my best replacement motor?

    Ok, like everybody said would happen, my 72v/infineon controller combination has blown up my 350w Bafang motor. I need a replacement in a hurry, but am baffled by the choice on offer... I'd rather buy from a European distributor to save on delivery time and cost... I've been looking at the...

    LiFePO4 pack rebuild - what are my options?

    Hi all, Well I pulled my JimmyWu 36v 10Ah non-functioning pack to pieces and I got lots of blue Valence saphion IFR-18650EC cells. They (were) grouped into 12 strings of 7 cells welded in parallel with thin (read sharp) tin strips. The readings I was getting from the terminals of my BMS (prior...

    OK - so what am I doing wrong now?

    Another weeks solid work on this bike and I'm still baffled :shock: So, I've wired my 2 36v batteries up in serial and connected everything up to the controller - I have a couple of obvious problems ... Firstly the batteries - I've charged them both fully and one is giving out 40V, the...

    Just saw this and thought of you guys

    it's a really good looking bike with a built in battery holder... looky: You can buy one here :http://tato.li/cssb/ - price is about £600, so not cheap - but think what it'd save you on battery box construction ;-) Truly gorgeous.

    Sanity Check please!

    Hi all, just about to wire everything back up again and am frankly crapping myself that I'm gonna blow it all up (again) - it's taken me 2 years to get back to the point where I'm ready so I'd really appreciate some hand-holding (Yes, I've made a donation!) OK - my questions are as follow: 1...

    2 Years on

    OK. I've finally got around to building this thing - 2 years after blowing up the first version! Trouble is, I've completely forgotten everything I needed to know. I've spent a couple of days trying to catch back up but part of the trouble is I'm not even sure if my equipment is still...

    Battery? Controller? ...no... Jimmy Wu's dodgy BMS.

    Hi - was riding to work the other morning and I noticed a lack of power for a couple of seconds... "Hmm, funny" I thought. Then it happened again... "Must have a look at that when I get to work" I thought - "maybe my dodgy soldering/crimping inside the motor has come undone". Then the lights...

    Switchable 36v/72v setup - which controller?

    OK - I have funds saved from petrol already! (My Volvo t5r is VERY thirsty) So I've got bids out there on another 36v 10ah battery to go with my current one, as well as some disc brakes (I already have one of rkosirek's e-brake kits) What I'm thinking would be cool would be a switchable 36v...

    Really dumb lighting/stepdown question

    Please - guys you know I'm not the most technically minded person on here - but, hey I'm a tryer! I have a pair of CAT-EYE headlights which cost my wife a fortune a couple of years ago for my Christmas present - the battery pack which uses a 12v charger is long dead - (to be fair, it never got...

    Best quality throttle for ecrazyman PIC controller?

    Hi - second day commuting on my new bike and I bust the flimsy ecrazyman thumb-trigger throttle - I hit a bump and the trigger just went pinging off across the road. In a way I'm happy - the damn thing was causing me to have to use a wierd vulcan death grip to maintain full throttle which was...
