    Hi, thanks a lot for this tip! I couldn't understand why at 0,4V Regen kicks in but at 0,35 there is NO Regen at all. So I followed your instruction, it works perfectly now! Regards

    No regen with Baserunner

    I have solved this issue by following the technical guidelines on this document Basically it is necessary to shunt the Throttle and the EBrake entries on the Higo 9 connector. Now regen works like a charm!

    PANASONIC ebike battery change

    Hi, I didn't connect the 'battery state pins' to the battery case. It was too difficult for me with my tools 😙 Of course now I don't see the LEDs on the battery case about it's charge status. But from my Cycle Analyst I get very reliable information. And when I charge the battery, the different...

    PANASONIC ebike battery change

    After 3 years and almost 10000 km, both my 5800 mAh Zippy batteries are still in excellent shape :D Every time I recharge them, they are (almost) perfectly balanced. I normally charge them in parallel, so the complete recharge ( having set the Lipo charger at 10Ah) takes one hour at most. I...

    Great post...... thanks Xenodius! I fully support your 'statement of directions' 8) Personally I have the same vision for everything you mentioned with just one exception. I don't want several KWh on board, not enough 'sporty' for me. The beauty of this solution should be of course 'long...

    PANASONIC ebike battery change

    I didn't connect the new 7S Zippy with the old Panasonic balance plugs...this is why the BMS doesn't recognize them 8) Too much work and what about the old Panasonic battery then ? I still use it as a back up... So I am not too worried about the fact that I cannot charge the new Zippy with...

    Long distance touring - off the grid

    hi, excellent thread! I would like to bring also some 'european' point of view :) Recumbent bikes are created to be MUCH more efficient that normal bikes, so I think this is an excellent starting point! My project is to add to a recumbent bike (Nazca Gaucho High racer) a mid drive (Cyclone...
