I want to thank everyone who has helped and made this project a reality with their advice, support and testing. Together we made the smallest charger in the world, capable of charging electric bikes, scooters, skates and more.
Thank you!
For anyone who is interested, but was not part of the project, here is a short summary:
Around 6 months ago we discussed the idea of using the USBC adapters that everyone has for charging phones and laptos to charge our eBikes/eScooters. Since USBC adapters are now already capable of supplying up to 240W this makes them more powerful than most stock chargers you get with your ride, so the question was obvious - why not use that to charge our rides?
This lead us on a journey of developing a charger that is capable of using the USBC adapter's output and transform it into the correct voltage and current to charge the batteries. We made two versions of the and did extensive testing to prove functionality and safety.
The end result is a charger that is smaller than your phone, fits inside your pocket, and charges just as fast as any other charger you might use.
This project proves that communities like this are capable of having great ideas and bringing them to life.
Happy riding!
