Hi all,
I have been enjoying using my first Ebike built around a 36v lion battery pack and 250w bafang hub motor. However the battery charger must have failed, when left on overnight charge, which I only found out when I was caught short 2 3rds of the way into daily commute. The battery seems ok as even in it's discharged state it is still giving a voltage reading of 38v. There is a large black soot mark on the charger printed circuit board so i assume this has charged it's last battery!? I am building my next Ebike which I plan to run more power, 48V 500-750w and a mid-drive possibly a bafang bottom bracket mounted system. Rather than buy a replacement charger for the current bike, which may only last 6 months like the last one, I feel it would be wise to invest in a good universal charger which could charge both of these batteries and others perhaps for future proofing. Could anyone recommend such a charger Please.
