Hi all. Please help. On my last few rides I have ran out of battery twice. Both times close to home so no issues.
Motor stoped assisting at 5% level.
I have been looking to purchase a portable charger. I see that Specialized used to make one but not any longer.
I was able to find one on eBay.
does anyone have any experience with this?
Here is a picture of the battery. No one seems to carry it.

Grin satiator can be bike mounted but expensive, However it can charge at various rates and fast charge too.
 
The early Turbo standard charger had aluminum cooling fins and weighed 4.5 LB (2.02 Kg) so they needed a travel version. I used to keep the travel charger at work and the other at home. The old travel charger was about the same size as the current standard charger (a little lighter). I needed to replace the travel charger and found they only had the single type 1.94 LB (.88 Kg).
 
Well that explains why they stoped making travel charger.
I found one on eBay for $130 and purchased.
Not sure how much that weighs.
planning to keep that in the bag for longer rides.
seems like that was a useless purchase.
Well.. will add that to the other stuff that I have but don’t need.
