Hello, first humble post on this forum from a newbie.
Will try to keep it short.
Which battery to choose for Tongsheng 350W motor on a classic aluminum low cost road bike frame.
Hoping to cover some 70-80km in 3 hours for semi-recriational or non-recriational commuting/lightweight touring purposes.
Ordered some 36V 26aH triangle battery from HalloMotors on Amazon, but since it's still not dispatched I'm starting to think about some LTO batteries again.
Knowing that it's hard to find suitable LTO cells for a triangle battery then there is no other choice but to choose something else like lifePO4 headway cells from a local seller.
These ones

probably will too be too awkward to fit on a bike for a proper weight distribution.
Currently don't feel confident enough to make DIY battery pack with BMS and initial balance charging as it might take too much time in case if something goes wrong, could try though.
LTO could be better compared to other chemistries which always need to be charged since you never know when you might need a bike. Anather thing is safe handling and charging if one happens to live in a flat or even semidetached house.
Looks like should have waited couple of more years till the LTO batteries become more well known among average consumers and local distributors.
