I reported Powerbutler's answer in #31. Please contact Powerbutler directly (#3) to show them that there are (more) possible customers.

Yes, I know, and I appreciate your test sequences in the interest of science and fora knowledge very much.

Why "some"? Looking at his starting pic of the video, it says "5 Nm". ;) P.S.: what I really wanted to say is "agreed".

Powerbutler has answered that they are working on a 48V solution which could enter the market in the 2nd half of 2022. I have sent them @Stefan Mikes pictures so they do not forget the Specialized SL adapter 😉

😊 I'll report as soon as Powerbutler has answered my request if a 48V solution is coming.

Q Can this charge a 12v auto battery? Lowest output voltage is 24v but I'm not an expert. A by Grin Technologies Ltd.: Yes it can be set to charge a 12V automotive battery too, although the charger electronics are not as...

You're completely OT in this point, too. The Grin cycle Satiator (model CG306-4808, specified for 24-48V only) needs AC input 100 -240V but doesn't work on 12V input as requested. And there is no Satiator model for the complete range 12V -60V.

I wrote 20% loss if even because it didn't really matter for my argument, and I was lazy as it was in the middle of night (local time), sorry. I am not an EE, too. Agreed that converting 12V to 36V DC is more like 10% loss (estimated). You won't manage to recharge a fully depleted ebike battery...

Que? Ah = Wh / V So your 36V ebike-battery with 600 Wh needs app. 16,7 Ah (600 / 36) for a full load (which won't happen any time at all) + lets say 20% loss if even. That shouldn't be a problem for a healthy decent car battery if it's recharged the other day by driving. My cars battery at...

Quote from their homepage: "Special versions in 26V or 48V can also be offered in the future" Best to ask them directly when to expect if at all.

Powerbutler has developed a 12V universal charging system for ebikes. You could enquire there: www.powerbutler.de

Calm down, Brownie 🙂 I thought my pictures in this forum present since 2020 were self-explanatory. Of course you better put the brake levers next to the grips, as shown: https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/raising-the-handlebar-on-a-19-vado-3-0.32624/post-298017 No need to remove the...

So did I: https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/changing-grip-in-vado.35725/post-304764 And I still prefer the SQlab innerbarends to the Ergon GP3 which I tested in between.

No, if you keep riding it in the mud it should be good for at least a few more thousend km.

You're dead on. 👏 External lighting has been allowed in Germany for several years on all types of bikes and must only be attached to the bike during twilight, darkness, and f.e. foggy or heavy rain conditions. You're obliged to have a white reflector to the front and a red reflector to the back...

The motor bolts? 18 Nm said LBS. So not `´published´´.

You can replace it with any of them (CS-HG200-9 11-34 or CS-HG201-9 11-36 or CS-HG400-9 11-36), whatever you prefer or can buy. The difference between CS-HG200 and CS-HG201 is the colour (black or silver). CS-HG400 is silver, too.

The LBS doesn't get any change log info from Speci so no inside info possible from LBS.

You're not honestly comparing apples with oranges? :oops:

Yes, but basically only. Quality steel is expensive and hardly used for bike cassettes at the lower end (f.e. Shimano Deore etc). Quality aluminium alloy such as T6-7075 is superior to the cheaper steel alloy being used and that's why it's the other way round: expect better durabilty from...
