    How to determine battery % charge off-bike

    Thanks you all for your reply. I just checked my XP and I get the following static measurements: Multi-meter = 49.6 v Controller = 50.4 v I typically ride only 5-10 miles per day (every day) so I only charge to 70-80%. I am pleased to see that the controller measured voltages is within 1.6 %...

    Could we expect firmware updates for our bikes?

    You may be able to back into a watt hour figure for the 48 v 10.4 amp-hour battery but is that really necessary? The XP fully charged is 54.6 v, I assume that the battery has 10.4 amp hours of energy at that point. But it is not all usable as you can't (shouldn't) discharge to zero energy...

    Could we expect firmware updates for our bikes?

    I also use smart plugs connected to my iphone. The charger for XP stock charger charges at about 2.5 volts per hour. So I set the plug timer to bring me to 51.5 to 52 volts. Say 49 v + 2.5 volts = 51.5 volts; set for 1 hour.

    How long should a stock XP last?

    I saw a thread today about frying the controller on an XP after messing with light upgrades and others members mentioning motor issues. I have left my XP electrical components stock. My only upgrades are bolt on (seat, suspension seat post, flashing rechargeable lights, bell, lock). So are...

    Placed order for 2 XP eBikes Aug 27th.

    There is lot's of great bike trails in Newport Beach. I linked a yelp article on the voted ten best trails but the detail in yelp is not great. I find that the app, Alltrails, is awesome for finding great hiking, biking and kayaking trails around the world. I purchased a life time...

    Placed order for 2 XP eBikes Aug 27th.

    I found that the stock charger recovers 2.5 volts per hour so I just use a smart plug to time the charge and then turn off at my target voltage ; seems to work well for me at $5 for a smart plug. Please let me know how it works. Thanks, John

    Let's design an inexpensive work stand for the XP

    “ Starman, The Yaheetech has enough clearance to pedal. In fact I was just doing that today on the XP to adjust the derailer. I did fold the inside pedal to add more clearance but this was not really necessary. This is my first bike workstand and I am loving it. I have been using it on...

    Let's design an inexpensive work stand for the XP

    Is the post on the floor jack Idea short enough that you can position it under the seat post tube without having to lift the bike by hand? That would be an advantage over my Yaheetech stand but I still like the idea of having one work-stand that works for all my bikes. I just don't have a lot...

    Let's design an inexpensive work stand for the XP

    The YaheeTech workstand arrived from Amazon today. I was searching for a stand in my post above on Aug 13 that would support my XP as well as our other non electric bikes. I think that this one will work well for $80. It supports up to 66 lbs so I removed the battery just to make the XP easier...

    Lectric XP Battery Bar Interpretation?

    John, The smart plug I use works well; $20 for four. You down load the Gosund app on your phone, link the plug through your wifi to your phone. You turn the plug on using your phone and then you can set the on time in minutes and hours or schedule the plug to go on and off at a set time (ok...
