    Hydra Batterie Question

    Here is what I used for my EVG battery pack combiner (simple common cathode diode pack).... I made similar combiners for two of my LUNAtic buddies for their 52V Wolf packs and they added some 21700 14S2P "range extension" packs from China... FWIIW- That UAV board is damn cool. You will need to...

    Hydra Batterie Question

    @bexamous - Suggest use diodes to isolate your battery packs. Do not just slap two packs in parallel. WW has a combiner…. Also, try removing the decerative panel on the Bafang covering the mounting bolt/nuts. That is where the frame battery connects to the motor. Maybe drill a rat hole on that...

    Thanks @WaxedWookie - I will take that compliment and hope the others that contribute here do too…. It is very difficult to make a non-water resistant bike suddenly water resistant. It has to be designed in! As @Stefan Mikes pointed out, his bikes are clearly IP65 or IP67 rated. If you don’t...

    Hydra Batterie Question

    Hi @bexamous - This is why I was asking what BMS comes in the 48V pack…. (Do you have a photo???) So the cable that has the three pin that plugs into the battery or the Hydra has a RED/BLK Anderson Power Pole (or AMP copy!) at the other end. Only 2 of the three pins are connected…. (And why I...

    Hydra Batterie Question

    @bexamous - were you able to find any MFG info on the 48V pack BMS? Would love to know more about that BMS as the one used on the 52V pack has been super handy for me. So with much thanks largely to the inspiration of @greeno, his batteries and stories, I helped a friend rewire his Laudation...

    Folks, I see my verbal recipe for the programming is totally incorrect. What you see in the code for all setting is what I converged on but FORGOT. I tamed this beast even more than I thought and now tamed it further in ECO mode and have tweaked SPORT modes too.... Will explain better in a...

    Hi folks, hope you all are doing well and having fun in your adventures!! The weather in the SF Bay has been incredible allowing me to go have fun. I am surprised that despite the lack of rain, the ground moisture seems to have trickled up causing some of the more shady areas to have a bunch of...

    Our Rides in Words, Photos & Videos

    Hi folks, This is not going to be a major verbal post, but I wanted to share todays ride. The coolest part of this ride is that a fellow EBR member @Merle Nelson drove 2 hours (and 2 home!) to come to my Barn and go for a local ride with me and my buddy JP (not a member!). Our first challenge...

    My Atom Arrived - Not Quite As Expected/Ordered

    @JRA - for BELT, the Atom has a break point on the Drive Side chain stay. You can see the two screws in the above photo…. @Shel-done - sorry for your issues, you dealt with them very professionally. This bike was to be a box build and direct ship from Asia that didn’t work as hoped….. -BB

    Hi @Merle Nelson , The WD40 and taped up vise grips are hidden keys to the “technique”. After a while I fell in to what can only be described as a “Wheel Builders Zen”. I could feel the spokes that were too loose after the “Dish” was set and while working on the final true. The Nextie rims are...
