    Ammo can storage

    I've decided to keep my batteries inside out of the cold and heat. When it comes time to charge them, they will be inside the ammo can. (2) 13ah batteries will fit for storage purposes.

    Ammo can storage

    I'd like to keep the charging station in the garage for safety, but it can get down to -10°F, and near 100°F in the summer. I feel this isn't going to be good for the batteries. I Have a large ammo can, and I pulled the gasket off. I'm testing inside temperatures presently with a...

    Hello from E.TN

    Hey everybody. I I've in East Tennessee in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. I just ordered a new ebike, and it should be here Tuesday. I've had 2 knee replacements, and I'm 65. I thought an ebike would help out. I've been an avid bicyclist forever, but unless it's flat I'm not going...
