and an offroad fun bike
|
A cargo bike, a touring bike (probably similar to what the ECR is now honestly), a roadbike with dropbars and a lightweight minimal e-setup, and a full suspension something. And a beater bike for not being paranoid about locking it up outside businesses for 20 minutes. :P
|
Haha
|
Beater bike is real
|
I need a beater bike. At some point in the next few months, I'm likely to just pick up a singlespeed something or other for short trips into town.
|
For acoustic riding?
|
or are you gonna be tempted
|
by *voilamart*
|
üëÄ
|
Nah, acoustic. A "It's snowing and the roads are salted and this bike will be fucked by spring, but that's whatever" bike. :P
|
haha
|
I still think a voilamart kit for like
|
<$120
|
could defo factor in
|
;)
|
If I were intending on long distances for it, for sure.
|
But on my first trip through this town to get a feel for it, I missed one cross street and ended up out of town on the other side.
|
I don't need assist for that. lol
|
hahahaha
|
you live in a tiny village
|
Basically. lol
|
@larossmann them grasping at straws
|
I have a cat
|
His name is mr. clinton
|
he would meow at UPP.
|
Yes, I have seen your cat
|
your cat is great
|
@Black Moons I think it was a genuine translation error tbh
|
But it’s nice that they at least agree a bridge rectifier is ok to use
|
they still don't understand how one works though
|
because even if he was using some kinda regulator (on an e-bike, what the $#@%$), the bridge still wouldn't let one battery charge the other.
|
I can only assume they confused 'rectifier' with 'current regulator'
|
So now UPP is claiming the diodes failed?
|
They are assuming that the rectifier shorted from overheating
|
it was heatsinked and mounted for airflow..
|
Twas the inrush current
|
The inrush current at the very end of the ride?
|
Ah right, forgot that's a reference now. lol
|
Ik but UPP think, probably due to a translation error, that you were using an underpowered bridge rectifier
|
Not inrush current, the outrush current
|
Yea I particularly enjoyed that comment
|
That person was *so confidently wrong*.
|
@larossmann Btw as I posted yesterday, its typical for a 50A diode to have *crazy* peak current specs, in the 500A+ range.
|
so even the rush from charging your controllers capacitors is of little consern
|
So yeah, no reason to think the setup failed even if it had exceeded the continuous spec.
|
(thats 500A for 16mS btw)
|
It’s mainly heat that kills the diodes according to the electronics discord so short bursts don’t matter
|
yep
|
they are such simple devices theres not much to go wrong till you physically melt the silicon inside
|
They still called it arduino engineering though lol but haven’t had a proper explanation why
|
@larossmann Heres a question for them:
|
Who called it arduino engineering lol
|
"EM3EV allows their batteries to be directly paralleled and their BMS protects them. What makes your batteries worse that you can't allow that?"
|
@district9prawn people in the electronics discord
|
Akbar: well considering EM3EV is even selling little half bridge boards lol (that MIGHT have some sync rectifier mosfets or something)
|
Yes the Chinese sellers even state 10mV delta balancing on those devices
|
There’s just very little info on them
|
@Black Moons maybe sabvoton ones but not phaserunner ones, they are so tiny
|
heheh.
|
@Akbar Im waiting for some nutjob to try and build a battery out of 100 of them.
|
(using one for each cell)
|
They have one type which can be chained
|
"for recharging, I just use this balance lead *shows off 100 pin connector*"
|
Which should allow as many packs as you want in parallel and balanced
|
heh
|
I'm buying some sabvotons
|
üëÄ
|
I want to buy a sur ron
|
Damn, that e-mail is so annoying. You can really see there's a comprehension gap there
|
when you peel the wrapper on your pcb cracker
|
what did that thing ever do to you.
|
It probably broke before teardown, rip eggrider
|
Is this fixable?
|
It just popped off
|
wait what
|
got any more pics?
|
When i get back home. The derailer came off the hanger. A spring also came off the same joint
|
It won't stay on so i think a part is missing
|
That's a first for me.
|
If you don't get any good answers here, I recommend also posting to reddit on r/bikewrench. These sort of questions generally get at least a few knowledgeable answers over there.
|
Is that a subreddit I can get banned from
|
Doubt it. You'll likely get people questioning your ideas, but you'll also get people trying to answer your questions.
|
Hopefully.... :P
|
There's still a lot of bike culture over there, but they're a lot less snobbish/purist since it's a subreddit built on the foundation of actually helping people figure out their mechanical issues, no matter the bike.
|
F
|
@DeerüÖ±oi Looks like your missing a snapring and potentially the spring itself
|
the snapring is an off the shelf part, the spring,, not so much (unless its still attached to the derailer)
|
Auto parts store should have some snaprings to replace it. trick will be figuring out if its metric or standard (I think it would be metric but.. never know)
|
F @Akbar
|
There’s blue slime in the tire which is preventing the patch from sticking
|
Yea we are not a fan of slime..
|
We are however fans of armored tires
|
and armored tire inserts
|
I got a pinch flat from a massive pot hole
|
Ouch.
|
oof
|
why is there slim if the tire isnt tubeless?
|
slime*
|
Idk I think it’s supposed to self seal for small punctures
|
Yea
