I left them at almost full charge
and used almost none of them for that entire time
I put mine in way worse environment albeit for couple months only
outside, wrapped on a neat little C4 looking duct tape and there was enough opening for air to corrode the cell.
but you said you had them sealed in a container so idk how this happened.
welp back to playing SE
mine definitely were not sealed
it was a little plastic drawer thing, but not sealed. it has 3 levels but i had the middle drawer missing, so the top was just open, and the cells that weren't directly exposed just had plastic lying on top. although, i should say that the cells in the MIDDLE of the collection were not corroded or only slightly corroded
Was that the only cell that had that kind of damage? @Rotated
or was that like every single one of them
if it was only 1 then I feel like something sussy with that cell
3 of them
or 2
2 were that bad
1 almost that bad
then there were a LOT of them that were moderately corroded
out of 50
...
WHY DID YOU KEEP THEM THEN
If any cell has electrolyte leakage, then bin it and see if others develop symptoms.
because i did not know LOL
i only found out about the corrosion briefly before sending those pics, and since then I have individually wrapped every single cell, and will be bringing them to a battery recycling location soon

That reminds me my 14 year old laptop cells finally deserve their yearly recharge
@Deleted User thoughts?
that'll buff out
The hanger is slightly bent, but the derailleur is starting to get bent as well.
And throw in a loose rivet.
Loose-looking rivets are pretty normal on derailleurs, but are the ends actually bad?
I'll look more into it tomoow morning.

Not gonna change it now
hi
i found a broken inside my motor. but do not know where the rest is or where it should be. its called shaft seal.
can anyone tell where the part is located?
found this little coil in my motor and cut it off bcause it did not have a good condition ^^
Oh that looks like a seal only. I recognize this from automotive
The coil wraps around the end of a shaft
And holds this thing tight
maybe on this position?
That looks possible...but I'd think it'd go outside the motor no?
Show me all parts in high detail
i am at work for the next 8 hours ^^ just googling around
Including the housing
Ic ok
To describe it it's like, a rubber seal that also function like a sort of C-clip. But it's not a C-clip, instead using that coil in there to fit on a lip.
Car AC lines use the same thing
thank you üôÇ i send more pictures as soon as i have my motor on the workbench
found it
Yeah it goes on the outside of the housing on the axle/shaft
It's just a little water seal
They can easily get fucked up when you break apart the stator and rotor
It's an extra lil seal protecting the bearings and interior of the motor
oh no winter is coming and my motor dies
^^
I wish my motor had one.
Guess I'll just stick to more regular maintenance to ensure my bearings stay healthy
They're kinda shitty anyway but better than nothing
Used a lil metal pipe to wedge mine back onto the qs273 evenly
The bearings are sealed anyway...
My seals are directly exposed on one side. It's not enough. Water intrudes and rusts the bearings, I'll have to repack the grease in that bearing minimum every 650km during the winter.
lol wtf, that's annoying as hell
i can do like 15000km until i just buy new bearings for like $20
Mine are all silent rated bearings. I prefer to treat them well.
Also, on my first servicing, I opened them all up. Found many despite being such high grade bearings were quite short on grease. So I packed more in.
Muuuch more in
Now my motor is far quieter
bleh
i think my battery was damaged when they shipped the bike to me
it barely holds any charge
i emailed lectric so hopefully they can do something about it
Sounds like it was sitting dead for 1+ years
Dropped the voltage so low it could never fully recover
maybe? i bought it 1.5 months ago
Looks like I pulled my wheel out of true while working on it this week. Gotta correct that...
Rear
Lectric has enough of a rep to know not to do this tho...
Woof woof bark bark
is that
The coil goes inside the seal (as pictured) to help hold the seal against your shaft.
Woof woof bark bark
RIP.
That means your tensioning wasn't even enough.
Mmm no
Its all very tight
Just a combo of general use and me having to jam the wheel in/out of the dropout.
Spokes have been tight for over 4 months now. This recent wobble is a new development after I did a flat repair and hub service back to back this week.
What tension?
Oh, hub service. It makes sense.
Spoke tension.
absolutely mint reckon they got a bit more kms left
look at the wavy sidewall üòÇ
Throw it on the rear and ride 9000km in a week lmfao
Surely it'll hold
its going to have 30km weekly kilometrage so it should manage. This will be fun in winter having like half as much traction as usual with those
What happened?!!
