    Easy Motion Street: System Power Cuts Out

    Hello @Easymotion, the symptoms sound exactly like the issue that my bike had. The bike shop tried to fix the issue: first by suggesting I place a strap around the battery to hold it in place, then they replaced the display and controller. Since nothing worked and they had not identified the...

    Hello @JFane , did BH resolve the issue with the bluetooth module compatibility and does it now work with 9.3.x?

    Easy Motion Street: System Power Cuts Out

    @Jack Tyler and @HaveBlue, I opened up the battery case and inspected the inside of the battery. It was a bit hard to get the case cover off, due to being a tight fit and it it appears to be sealed in place with white silicone. There were no broken wires, loose connections or other anomalies...

    BH WIreless Bluetooth Issue

    I have not yet downloaded the 9.3.1 update and will wait a bit longer to do so after hearing about the Bluetooth issue.

    BH WIreless Bluetooth Issue

    With the stock control unit, the amount of pedal assist seems to be about the same when set at 70% and %100%. In both cases the bike seems to go ~22mph when pedaled on flat terrain. In contrast, with the Bluetooth unit set at ~70%, there is noticeably less assist under the same conditions and...

    Easy Motion Street: System Power Cuts Out

    @HaveBlue the battery is still shutting down during rides. I will try your suggestion of opening the case to see if there are any obvious signs of wires not properly connected.

    BH WIreless Bluetooth Issue

    I tried the Bluetooth module recently on an 8 mile ride with no issues. I have not downloaded the latest app version, 1.2.6, and am using an iPhone with data off and location set to always. I've used the module a few times and have not had any Bluetooth connection issues. On the latest ride, I...

    Dynamo Hub lighting - On an e-bike?

    My BH Easy Motion bike came with a Shimano dynamo hub and it works very well. The stock tail light also works well and has a "stand light," function, so that it stays lit after stopping. Some models even have a brake light function. Front lights can be purchased that put a good amount of light...

    Is there a way to charge phone from Easy Motion bike?

    I agree, GPS phone apps can drain the phone battery fairly quickly while riding. The Easy Motion Bluetooth module app also drains the phone battery quickly. For those using the external phone battery pack charger, does it mount to the bike? How long does it take to recharge the phone? Another...

    Is there a way to charge phone from Easy Motion bike?

    I charge an iPhone with the shimano Dynamo hub that came with the 2015 street. I replaced the stock light with an AXA luxx 70 plus light that has a USB port. A Switch on the light can be used to switch between USB charging and light output. The phone is mounted on the bars. This setup basically...

    Easy Motion Street: System Power Cuts Out

    I had this issue a few months after purchasing the Easy Motion Street. Eventually, after replacing the battery, the issue went away. I still use the old battery as a backup range extender for longer rides, but it cuts out a few times during a typical ride and needs to be removed from the frame...

    Battery Shipping

    I noticed about halfway through a video tour of Grin Technologies, that they are experimenting with small packs comprised of 18650 cells potted into ~100Whr packs. It seems the idea is to increase shipping safety, comply with the shipping restrictions on larger packs and allow for modular packs...

    EASYMOTION WIRELESS BLUETOOTH CONTROL

    The app has quite a few displays showing different data about the bike: * Battery check: SOH and SOC, which I believe means State of Health and State of Charge. My battery was at 95% SOH. * Torque sensor calibration: "sensor is correctly calibrated and the voltage is correct, 1.25V," it shows a...

    EASYMOTION WIRELESS BLUETOOTH CONTROL

    I agree, the stock control unit works well for everyday use. How does the bluetooth module help to plan battery life? I wonder if one can turn off the map feature? I like the functionality of the app, since you can modify it to display a variety of metrics.

    Winter or cold weather battery storage

    The following text is written on label of the 36V lithium ion battery that came with my bike, "Charging the BH Easy Motion battery at 60% is mandatory if not used or stored for a long time period. Check the charge condition after 4 months. When only one LED of the charge-control indicator will...

    Winter or cold weather battery storage

    I believe the manual that came with my bike suggests to charge to ~60%, then check it periodically during storage and recharge if needed. How quickly it discharges will depend on the BMS electronics. Based upon what I've read, Lithium batteries should have better longevity if maintained...

    EASYMOTION WIRELESS BLUETOOTH CONTROL

    My impression is that the PAS response is more even across the %assist range with the bluetooth module compared to the control unit that comes with the bike. At 0%, they should be the same, except no throttle with the module. With the control unit on my bike, 30% provides a little assist, 50%...

    EASYMOTION WIRELESS BLUETOOTH CONTROL

    @John L, I have not used the module long enough to see how much cell phone battery drain would occur. But did notice a drop in charge after 20-30 mins or so of use. I got the impression that I would have to hook my phone up to the USB charging port on the hub dynamo powered light on my bike in...

    Grin Technologies Cycle Satiator charger on BH?

    @Joergen8, I generally charge the battery after removing it from the frame. I was thinking of also cutting one end of the wire that connects directly to the battery and soldering a female XLR connector to the wire end. http://www.amazon.com/Neutrik-NC3FXX-3-Pin-Cable-XLR/dp/B002A0WSS0 This...
