1000w
1 kW
I went to a farm near York WA this weekend for a dirt track motor bike race. There was the full spectrum of ICE bikes there from Harleys to Honda postie bikes.
I took my Giant Reign along to represent the EV world. http://www.endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=34451&start=75
As there was no power there I took a generator, this could output only 550w continuously and my 73 volt 8 amp charger uses 650w from the mains power.
A quick test at home seemed to go fine, however at the event after about 45 mins the charger went dead and no longer works, no LEDs or fan when hooked up to 240v mains.
Any clever guys know what components I have damaged?
Here's a vid I did with my tricopter, gives an idea of the track layout. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mJZDddwjMc&feature=youtu.be
Also, I was able to lap as fast as any of the ICE bikes, there was a few diehard ICE boys who were very impressed. I gave lots of laps on the Ebike away to help spread the EV word.
Sorry no vid of my bike racing.
Cheers,
Matt
