    Copper strips instead of nickel?

    Building battery from MAKITA Konion PACK

    Great to see you are still supporting us with these cells and the video on how to dismantle the packs. My pack is still working very well after 3 years. I have changed out a few cells, but no major problems. Looking forward to some of the newer cells. Thanks again!

    Recumbent trikes

    I have been riding a home built recumbent delta trike for the last 4 years. I commute to work mostly on country roads. This design would not work well in a busy city.

    My wife rides Burley Koosah 36 volts ping pack and I ride a custom built delta recumbent with a 44 volt battery. The Koosah has 12,000 km and the delta has 14,500 km. We love e-cumbents.
