hi guys
I have been charging my second e-bike with a Chinese 48v 4a charger for a few weeks
when during a normal charge the power blew
so I reset the fuse but when I plugged the charger into the wall it blew the house fuse again
I looked inside but there was just a bit of burning by the rectifier
I tried replacing a few of the components but nothing worked it still blows the house fuse when plugged in
so I cut my losses and ordered another one the same , and guess what , after about 5 charges this ones done the same
I have been charging successfully between the charges with a old 36v charger turned up to 48v (54.6)
and this is still in operation but it is a 2A and the 48V are 4A
I know I can go back to the Chinese seller or just buy a different brand
but is there a common cause of this failure where I can solder in an upgraded component that will be better ?
so I can re-use these 2 chargers ?
