    In case your battery won't fully charge

    My 52V Hydra battery wouldn't fully charge and my 10A charger would just keep cycling on and off indefinitely. I changed the "Single full voltage" parameter in the BMS from 4.15 to 4.2V and now the charge terminates properly. Whoops... Bad information. The charger cycling on and off at the end...

    Archon X1 Programming Thread (questions and experiences)

    New discovery day! Sensitivity torque level 0 is actually pure torque sensing mode. Startup crank angle is down to 1/16th of a turn! Motor overrun is down to about 1/4 second! The controller now works as I expected it should. My Hydra is damn near perfect now. Next up is installing the 52V, 20...

    Archon X1 Programming Thread (questions and experiences)

    As an experiment, I set every assist level the same. Torque 30A, sensitivity torque level 1. To my surprise, the level of assist kept going up with each PAS level! I conclude that the torque multiplier is actually set by the assist level. Sensitivity torque level is the blend of torque vs...

    Motor Maintenance

    I was under the impression that greasing was part of the Innotrace upgrade but I guess that was dropped.

    Magura EStop brake issue

    I just measured mine to be normally open. (They were conveniently off the bike as I switched to two finger levers.) Normally closed would be annoying when the wire breaks and your motor won't run.

    Hydra Battery Charger

    Thanks for pointing that out. So dumb. Mine has a fuse on the inlet socket. (I made my own legible labels.) After that, I would expect the inrush current limiters to fail. They're the black disks on the left of this picture. Maybe they can be upgraded. This charger would never receive...

    Hydra Batterie Question

    This is the finest 1500W bike on the planet. I still don't want anything else.

    Hydra Batterie Question

    My BMS came with the overcurrent set to 50A and I've hit that limit 3 times! The battery was fully charged and the voltage sagged to 46V. That's 2300W before the BMS shut down.

    Hydra Batterie Question

    I had the battery open to add an enable switch and you're right, it's 14s4p. We've been lied to. It's not 17 Ah. Now it makes sense why the BMS indicates a 14 Ah battery.

    PSA : expediting orders is not possible

    EBR is the only forum I've had to ignore people on. What gives? Poor moderation? Head injuries?

    5 Levels vs 9 Levels

    On the last page of the 750C display manual, you can see that 5 levels maps to assist levels 2, 4, 6, 8, 9. I'm willing to bet WW didn't bother with any custom programming and you are missing out on the lowest assist level. I say this because they didn't bother with my custom programming...

    Worth the wait, Hydra is here.

    I can usually find the same item with cheap shipping from China.

    Worth the wait, Hydra is here.

    Most US online stores don't offer international USPS shipping options. It's usually only expensive couriers for some reason.

    I'm not bragging. The drivetrain and battery can't actually handle 2600W peak. I'm detuning to 1500W continuous (~2300W peak).

    Hydras being distributed by Bolton?

    It literally says Watt Wagons Hydra in the video title. Bolton is distributing it.

    My UC Pro has arrived

    Hold the + button to enter sport mode. This is PAS 6-10. Throttle should be the same across all assist levels as delivered by WW. Be very careful starting pedalling uphill in sport mode! I may have been thrown off in the blink of an eye... I went back through your thread and saw that you have a...

    We're pushing an extra 1000 watts through the drivetrain compared to the Z1, though. Can't really compare the two for tooth skipping issues.

    Hydra Batterie Question

    I don't feel like taking it apart again anytime soon but here's a picture and some info I posted earlier. There's not much to see with all the kapton tape.
