Confirmed. I have my bikes all set to 3W (lowest) as we are usually riding with multiple batteries. And rarely in the dark. So even if the light would drop the battery to 0%, we could just swap the battery.

Those Gepida tandems were always a pain to get the chain and gears adjusted. And if the battery mounts are not close enough to each other, you will have to cut and extend the battery cable anyway to get it all connected on the Gepida. I would have spent the extra $ for the Moustache tandem which...

It does. I have a brand new 625Wh horizontal PowerTube but no bike for it. Unfortunately nobody wants to buy it.

Correct. And a car USB charger (12-24V) connected to the solar panel side (input) to get the 5V signal. That signal only goes to the first battery. From there you need the CAN bus connection to the second battery and of course the power connection. As soon as one battery turns on, they talk to...

Parallel charging of two 500Wh Bosch batteries with a 50W panel. Works just fine, takes just a bit over 4 days until both batteries are 100% charged. After both are fully charged, they just turn on and off every few seconds which is no problem. Even with a smaller 30W panel I could create a...

This is known since 2016. You can even get a replacement kit from Bosch (includes the right motor cover, bearing etc.). I already replaced that bearing on over 20 motors and always add that ring and grease. This plastic ring became standard on new motors later. Here you can find my post in the...

The Kiox does not upload random mileage from any random motor you plug it in to. Imagine you would just put it on your buddy's bike and it uploads his mileage. That would be a glitch. It only records and uploads miles you are riding with the Kiox (or Nyon) itself. With any bike. Just like any...

The miles you ride with a motor are stored in the motor. The miles you ride with the Nyon or Kiox are stored in the ebike connect database (as well as in the motor you are using). No matter what motor or bike you are using. I can ride the same bike with the Intuvia or Nyon (same mount). If I...

Hi, I have two lock ring tools for Bosch Gen2 for sale. Original Bosch and brand new (was a wrong order). It is for the one with the little front sprocket. BDU2XX 0275.009.003 $20 each plus shipping or free pickup. Also some more Bosch parts here

Two panel in series works much better with the MPT-7210A. 4:30pm, two 50W panels. Almost 80W charging. Battery turned off at 100%. Too bad that folding 100W panel is sold out. I will do some more testing when I get the other charge controller.

No. Both large in series and both small in series. They're all the same voltage. That's what the connected Kiox said. In the box is a motor PCB and a stripped Shimano battery with a Bosch BMS. I use this to monitor the battery charging process. That is not related to the light buffer. That...

Some more testing today. Unfortunately, the MPT-7210A only does 100W if I put the panels in parallel. 17.5V to 42V. If I set them up in series and parallel, I get >6A. Lets see what the other charge controller can do. Just strange that it was still charging over 5A at 95% Bosch battery level.

180km. One day ebike ride so to say.

It was. After digging into the source code of the Diagnostic Software, I found that this supports up to 5 parallel batteries. However, Bosch never implemented it into the motor software. This was with a 2017 version motor software. System turns on, detects 3 batteries but does not like it and...

The 6A charger "talks" to the battery to check if it has the 6A software. The batteries can also talk to each other. I will build another cable where I can plug in my charger and two batteries. For the charger it needs the 5V signal to wake the battery up. Between the batteries it needs the...

That will work. Just like you can charge them with the 4A and 2A chargers. Over the weekend I will try charging with 6A from solar. A nice feature of the MPT-7210A is that you can set a maximum current.

👍 Yes, mine are all from frame packs. They are easier to use with self made battery packs. And I only use the frame batteries anyway. I have a brand new 625 PowerTube but nobody wants to buy it. I might use it with the trailer later if I ever build one. Correct.

Yes. I was able to repair some Bosch BMS from dead batteries I got in the past. They work just fine with any 10s*p. With the dual battery setup I always ride with 1,500Wh which is enough for a weekend camping trip. No. It's less then two Amps, so no problem at all. I modified the connection...

Life is too short to ride s*it bikes
