Or in a walmart parking lot. Retailer would charge a small fee to cover the cost of electricity and a little more to make a profit but also would atract customers. Im sure it wouldnt be to expensive for them they already have a large lot. Start with 5 stations in a far end of a parking lot. Add...

I got a battery from electricrider.com its a 48v 20ah (size 26700x 96cells, 3300mha each) from research and then from electric rider I found out that they are rated continous at 3c. so 20ah @3c would be 60amp continous. And I dont ever do that. I use cycle analyst and i see that usualy I use no...

Just seen some videos on youtube on bloom energy server that uses solid oxide cells. Check them out. Big companies like fedex are testing them now. Wonder if it'll make it to ev market in my lifetime. Sounds too good to be true. But its tiny. Something like a deck of cards plus a gas ( methane...

So far my personal record is 60miles on 13ah out of my 20ah battery. Going no faster then 14miles per hour. Trying to stay within150w

So I finally got my ebike kit from electricrider.com. its a Phoenix cruiser 48v 40amp with 20ah lifepo4 battery and cycleanalyst. So far I really like it. Its fast, really fast. I did 35miles/hour which I think is way to fast for a bicycle. What I was wondering about more then speed was the...

Yeah I would imagine so. Even a skateboard gets unlimited range as long its going down hill. What im looking for is what fellow ebikers get in riding range based on the setup and speed. In my case im in a process of setting up my diamondback edgewood 700c hybrid with a crystalyte 4840 hs kit...

What set up are you using and what's your range relevant to your speed. Peddling and no peddling. The goal of this topic is to show what is the best setup for maximum range.

I thought I have seen on youtube some type of a capacitor that had a slow discharge. But I could be wrong. Could be charged in seconds but it would take 10-13min to discharge. It looked like a blue soda can. Again it was a while ago when I seen this video.... anyway it was just a thought

Did any one ever try to use to capacitors to overcome drag from a direct drive hub to store enough energy from breaking to allow the bike to freewheel for a while. Do I have something here? They charge faster than they discharge. It may work but im not electrical engineer so im just guessing...
