    How do I compare / calculate range between 2 packs?

    I have a 36V 15,500mAh, 561wh pack. I use about 600mAh per mile mountain biking. So I figure my max range is about 26 miles. A friend has the same motor on his bike and all he knows about his battery pack is that it is a 48v 672wh pack. We're trying to figure out what his range should be with...

    My "Tactical" eBike Ammo Battery Case! A first?

    I received today my 16AH Tesla pack from @okashira. I wanted to get it ready for a ride tomorrow. Unfortunately, the battery case I had would not fit the pack. (My bad in calculating pack size.)

    Need Help Hacking Bosch 36v 400 10A battery pack

    I was given a Bosch battery pack that appears to have a faulty BMS. The pack was putting out an error code and would not run on the Bosch bike. However, the charger would charge the pack. I pulled it apart and decided to simply bypass the BMS to use it with my Bafang 36v 500w conversion kit...

    RC Hobby eLogger for eBike battery monitoring?

    I've read several posts that the wattage display on the Bafang controllers is not very accurate. I have the Bafang C963 display and was curious if it was accurate. I have an Eagle Tree eLogger I was not using from my RC airplane and I think I'll mount it to my bike to track battery data. I did a...
