come to boston put down the cash i will take apart for you if not 35E i will give your monney back, but i have to open up to show you i will tank the cash and get new and you keep old one

Bluff all you care to. Look around. Fakes abound. The sad fact is some poor n00b might fall for the bluff. Fastech and their ilk in China sell counterfeit shrink wrap. Old news. Any one in the business and many long time builders are well aware.

She’s counting on your bluff and you’ll never open the battery. And confirm wrap date and IR.

The only outside chance and it’s extremely rare Chineses vendors aren’t stupid, is a business gets a sample under the guide of a mega buyer. But never for less than cost.

Please people, better to buy a generic from someone like UPP and at least get a real 1 year warranty.

It's quite possible Jessica Dou sent studebackerjack a one off prototype using 35E cells, hoping he will buy hundreds.
.
If the case number were know, one could go to UPP and find out what they charge..

A slim to none possibility. Chinese vendors have heard it all. They know what an EIN is for example. A UPP battery built to industry standards, pure nickel with a balance BMS, is double the price quoted. WITH a limited dealer discount. So we think an owner of a single Joekie/Hiland $900 eBike can by a 10Ah 35E cell pack for $160 plus shipping. And it’s a purportedly custom build?

We do a disservice to EBR readers.suggesting this is a reasonable expectation. Generic cells. Period.

FWIW several well known battery builders my former shop purchased from report 35E cells are in short supply and/or currently premium priced. with genuine 21700 cells competitively priced or lower price per cell.

Current genuine 35E salvage prices are around $3/cell.

35E cells are made in China too but we cant inport them you are great thinkers now everything maybe the price went up in china but jessica Dou would adjust then these company buy millions of batterys i said all i have to saw if you want to talk i can get a price from china from the maker no middle Man and if you buy more the price comes down they make the battery for schwinn joykie hiland hundreds more there are like america use to be in making things hundreds of company's and i would cut the dam thing to show you but why destroy my battery sick

Sorry poop and Shinola are still both brown.

I guess you know more than those scores of builders and shops with years of experience. You with your single purchase contact...

Enjoy.

Here's the two extemes in battery construction from cheapest to one of the best. The low end has a higher risk of cells short circuiting if the glue holding them together lets go. Better batteries use plastic forms. The best batteries use built-in fusing in the interconnects. Neither assembly technique allows cells to be replaced, although it's possible when forms are used.

 

[studebakerjack]

it is for a swhinn wonderlust

 

[tomjasz]

I just confirmed the wholesale pricing of 35E cells. PLEASE, people. NO ONE is selling 32ea 35E cells in a pack for $160. At the very best pricing, it's over $100 in cells. No case, BMS, or profit.

Yeah my hyperbike had to replace the rear to railer because it was so cheap kept poppin the chain off , I had a used one off another bike put it on there never had problems afterwards , yeah had to change the seat, had to modify the seat post because it wouldn't stay in place with my weight , Add a wireless pedometer it ,

 

[kev123]

I mean I can buy a whole hyper bike for 400 bucks including shipping , they want 200 bucks for a extra battery , and can I get a whole bike for $400 ,what to do, I get my extra battery in a whole new bike what to do ,I've seen some of these end up on Craigslist or marketplace people trying to sell them after they get them unused , And you're lucky to get 300 bucks out of them , People say well you can get them at Walmart for 400 , Yeah I tried to sell mine but decided to keep it , Because people can get them so cheap the only selling point is just tell them that they don't have to assemble it it's already put together , And you have to adjust the derailer yourself it doesn't come fully adjusted ,

For $398, it's a true class 1 with no throttle, and no place in the controller to attach one. The battery is pretty small, no? 36V and maybe 10ah? But it has disk brakes and the usual Shimano 7-speed Tourney in the back. Probably as good as my 1990 Trek conversion and less money.

 

[tomjasz]

Shouldn't be that hard to parallel a battery.

Perfect. Cheap battery in the hands of a n00b now in parallel. The perfect storm.

 

[kev123]

Shouldn't be that hard to parallel a battery.

So you're meaning matching a another battery , cheaper aftermarket battery

 

[kev123]

Yeah I've tried to look for a cheaper than $200 battery , I'm not sure how you wire it in , Can you put one of those skateboard batteries in it I can get those for like less than 100 bucks , They're the same specs

Not quite. V-brakes, low-geared six-speed, grungy LED light-only control panel, 'on-off' controller, and a 36v 7.8ah battery for a range of ~20 miles on medium assist. If you're savvy, Hyper does make a scooter-style ebike (Ultra) that uses an identical-sized, 36v 10.2ah battery that will work so not as bad for a $200 battery to carry as a range extender. Really, without the battery, the bike 'is' only worth about $200. The parts are of the lowest possible quality and a real tank to pedal without electric assist.

But for $398 (only light blue color), it is also the absolute cheapest new ebike available and easily a better alternative to a conversion kit. The biggest attraction is, as stated, that extra-cost warranty (which will invariably be needed). Of course, the warranty is now through 'Squaretrade' (i.e., Allstate) so, unlike before, you have to jump through hoops to get it honored.

For starters, they make you take the bike to a LBS to attempt repair. As one might imagine, there aren't many (if any) repair shops willing to touch a cheap, Chinese Walmart ebike with non-standard, lowest-quality parts. So, you have to get them to type up something on the LBS' letterhead and forward it to them for a refund.

Hyper does make a scooter-style ebike (Ultra) that uses an identical-sized, 36v 10.2ah battery ?Yeah I went to the hyper V bike site didn't see anything about a battery like this , unless you're talking about the manufacture of batteries for hyper , and all theirs fits schwinn , I was just trying to look for a cheaper then $200 for a backup or a second battery ,

 

[kev123]

Yeah I'd like to buy one of these hyper bike Walmart bikes and use all the components to put on my trike but I don't know how to convert the , I'd have to convert the rear hub down to a 16 inch rim , Because it's kind of expensive to buy a 16 inch hub but I hate to pour more money into my recumbent bike recumbent bike E trike Like where could you get spokes that would be short enough to put on a 16 inch cause I'd wanna use it for a front wheel hub news all the components on my E trike recumbent bike with a 16 inch front wheel , so I'm just been staying with what's on it for now

You'd probably have to contact Hyper or their manufacturer directly to source the 10.2ah battery. Frankly, you'd think they'd just offer that one as the replacement instead of the rather lame 7.8ah version. Seems like they'd sell more of them to owners who wanted a more powerful replacement for the standard battery.

But, since they only make one ebike that uses the 10.2ah battery, well, I guess the 7.8ah is more correct as a direct replacement for almost everything they make. Kind of strange how the Ultra is the only one that uses a 10.2ah battery, anyway.

Well, I don't think it would be too hard to get custom length spokes to relace the hub that comes with the Hyper. But you'd have to know what you're doing to get the correct length spokes for the hub to line up properly with a 16" rim.

If you want to pay the shipping from the midwest to Oregon, I have a good, extra Hyper motor hub (the rim was bent and constantly breaking spokes so they just sent me an entire new rear wheel assembly) you could experiment with.

There are lots of web pages and threads detailing parallel batteries. PLEASE follow expert advice not random thread comments. A $200 battery will not have very good components and a lack luster, perhaps even risky battery management system.

Any decent LBS should be able to build a hub motor wheel for <$100.

Do your selves a favor and READ the battery threads here written by Ravi Kempaiah. BEFORE risking your family and neighbors with s cobbled and unsafe battery management practices.
