Hi To All~
Well...I'm ready to hang out my shingle here. On the third battery enclosure and feel confident that these will be consistently high standard of quality. There's no better place to have your Lipo or LiFePO4 than in the triangle...for balance, handling, safety, and security. Wanting to get a finger on the pulse of likely receptivity for folks buying these. Have considered the price long and hard....and at $275....they are affordable and I'll be working very cheap until I build my familiarity and speed in building. That price is for the finished enclosure, complete with closed-cell foam along lower perimeters. The one I'm building now is more customized and would be more expensive. The forward corner has a weather proof chamber with air scoops to bring in air (and let it out again) for cooling the controller. Rubber grommets penetrating the box would be an example of another slight add-on in cost. (for wiring).
Check out the details....on this thread... http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=30457 ....
All fasteners are stainless....I have also fashioned a kit to send to purchasers, for creating an absolutely accurate template of the shape of the triangle, which is essential to perfect fit everytime. Without using this kit there would be no warentee on the fit.
For the moment, only bikes with the standard triangles (as opposed to dual susp, where rear shock occupies part of it) are available. Local ebike folks, I would be willing to work with on more complex designs, because I'd need access to the bike during the build) I'm 70miles north of San Fransisco.
I know everybody NEEDS one...but who would actually buy one?
Of course...I posted this original thread to help others find the way to build their own...but simply said...not everybody is a finish carpenter.
Looking forward to the responces here. Thanks
