    My new 2013 Build + Video and small burnouts p2

    the throttle isn't connected to the speedict, the pas sensor is ;) see the diagram I've made on page 1 (the throttle goes to the controller overriding the speedict input using a diode) the reason for this is: I've found the throttle input not working to well in my case so I don't use it...

    Wi-fi distributed bms? Has anyone found one and used it?

    Speedict is working on a bluetooth bms, they have early pics of it on their facebook page

    Let's talk about brakes

    go for the saints ;-) they can take a lot more heat I've used slx in the past and they started to leak between the pistons due to abusive usage (mosly heat) now I have 4 piston saints and they hold up very good + they have endless stopping power

    Anyone have aggressive confontations with pedestrians?

    oww yes, when I pass pedestrians with a kid and the kid jumps in front of my bike @ 15km/h the kid gets the blame from the parents and when I pass pedestrians with kids @ 6km/h I get the blame for riding to fast -_- then they start yelling and swearing at me in front of their kids lol I...

    A strange HS3540 noise? (audio file attached)

    perfectly normal ;) don't always believe what the guy @ Clyte europe tells you

    HS3540 @ 48V freewheel speed of 72km/h??

    that freewheel speed is normal for your voltage, it rather indicates that everything is fine with your motor the more amps, the more noise the motor makes ;)

    New Crystalyte Motor series (HT35 / HS35 and HT24 / HS24)

    the HT will consume less amps at the same speed (in theorie but i could be wrong) but since you'll be using 24S Lifepo.... the HS motor would be overkill :wink: you'll be going 100km/h with the HS :lol: so for 24S lifepo, the HT motor would be perfect! loads of torque for less amps + a...

    New Crystalyte Motor series (HT35 / HS35 and HT24 / HS24)

    yup for long range the HT should be better ;-) youll be riding more efficient

    New Crystalyte Motor series (HT35 / HS35 and HT24 / HS24)

    hs3540 @74V off the charger i get between 70 and 80km/h with a 26inch wheel my HT3525 still has the groove axle

    New Crystalyte Motor series (HT35 / HS35 and HT24 / HS24)

    with enough amps you'll get the torque you need out of a HS3540 with plenty of speed :lol: mine does power wheely's ;) but keep an eye on the temp tho, I wouldn't do this if there are a lot of hills, just for quick standing stops if you want to outrun kids on mopeds

    New Crystalyte Motor series (HT35 / HS35 and HT24 / HS24)

    not sure about that, I think it's the same all I've ridden so far is a HS3540 @ 60 amps with peaks of 80+

    New Crystalyte Motor series (HT35 / HS35 and HT24 / HS24)

    told you so :P they are utter garbage! I've been thinking to drill out the holes and fit decent low profile M5 hexes (if M5 is possible at least) M6 will be to big still have to take a look at it tho, I've only tried the removal on my spare HT3525 but since it is a spare motor I don't really...

    New Crystalyte Motor series (HT35 / HS35 and HT24 / HS24)

    yes indeed, the screws are VERY low quality and quarter of them need to get drilled out due to damage from the assy line if you want to open up the motor

    Which controller for HS3540 Crystalyte motor?

    between 70 and 80 km/h, depends on the wind, I've only managed to hit 80 once but that was slightly downhill

    Which controller for HS3540 Crystalyte motor?

    I'm just careful on the throttle when there are people around ;) running a modded 18FET infineon with HS3540 @ 74v pulling 6KW max but mostly i run around 25-30km/h without much noise consuming only 250Watts in case the cops show up i see that you are also from Belgium, are you using your...

    ALMOST BURN MY APARTMENT WITH 18650 CELLS!!

    well, you inspired me to overcharge these 18650 cells and see what they did :lol: I was sitting a few meters away from them in my garden and the pieces are everywhere in my garden now for those that want to see the vid of these cells exploding like in "lifepo4ever's" appartment iDaPP-dI9dE...

    What features do I need in a multimeter?

    Voltage, diode tester, resistance if you confuse AH with Amps then an A-meter isn't for you :wink: just go for the basic voltage - ohm meter that is accurate enough to measure voltage at cel level

    Getting rid of old lipo (now with 18650 rocket)

    this time i had some fun with an old RC helicopter 2S 18650 pack, I charged it to about 4.4Volts/cel @ 30amps, no explosion :evil: but then I shorted the pack and 1 of the cells turned into a rocket :lol: http://youtu.be/iDaPP-dI9dE iDaPP-dI9dE Enjoy!

    Building my own dream elektrical bike!

    Hi Tim! good to see a fellow Belgian ebiker on this board! I'm also using a setup that can do 25km/h 250W and up to 6000W when there are no cops around :twisted: http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=48605 if you aren't to far from here perhaps we could meet :wink: I'm...

    E-bike Brakes thread, please add what you know

    I have never ridden drum brakes before in my life, would love to know more about them and how they work (even seen hub motors with a drum brake) how does a (good) drum brake compare to a (good) rim and (good) disk brake?

    E-bike Brakes thread, please add what you know

    i totally agree! even the overhyped and overpriced 250watt specialized turbo uses disks (and it sells) maybe ask specialized why they went for disk brakes ;-) (the bike looks a lot like a road racer and still has disks, maybe its because UCI isnt involved :lol:)

    E-bike Brakes thread, please add what you know

    im wrong about the speeds, sorry about that ;-) i live on the flat and only see old couples on tandems overhere but i do believe that a solid 4-6 piston disk brake system with big disks, good wheels and reinfored frame would be a good thing for a tandem disks dont like to be dragged for to...

    E-bike Brakes thread, please add what you know

    there is a huge difference between braking at 30mph+ and 15mph, i dont see a tandem doing those high speeds a tandem frame is very expensive and mostly custom/handmade, obviously something was done to keep the price / weight down,
