for large ones it makes a huge mess
|
then wouldnt the slime be inside the inner tube or am i stupid
|
idk i havent run tubed tires since forever
|
Well it’s coming from the inner tube
|
I walked about 20 mins with the bike to my house
|
And there’s lots of slime mixed with water inside the tyre
|
oh
|
that must have been a serious pinch flat then
|
Huh, I wonder what you could use to clean Slime...
|
Every time I clean it, more slime comes out
|
Getting a new inner tube tomorrow
|
Yeah, slime and patches do not mix
|
It’s a pain to take this wheel off though
|
*"We sold UPP built batteries for 2years. Built to our specs. But the failure rate and build issues were ignored by Rechie and we lost our tails honoring warranties Rechie refused to honor. Always some asinine excuse. Actually stranded travel book writers in Spain with two dead batteries.
|
I found you BBSHD videos very enlightening. Thanks for that.
|
BTW we only sell EM3ev batteries. I have personal batteries still functioning from them in2015."*
|
I will leave anonymous which vendor wrote me that until he publishes for himself
|
apparently someone reposted my video to their page and someone reached out mad at him for it. hah
|
lmao
|
Beautiful
|
well damn, i wanted to buy a battery from them
|
now i kind of want to just pay the em3ev margin and feel good about the battery
|
even though it's like over 100%
|
Well, Louis did have his bike turn into an expensive piece of fireworks
|
@larossmann lol, interesting to see all the UPP stories come outta the woodworks
|
so I'd say it's worth the money
|
wait i'm looking at their site and they have this comparison banner of how the batteries are built
|
i saw this same banner on an upp battery
|
they stole the image XD
|
lmao
|
hahahahah
|
wait what, the price isn't even that much higher
|
i mean sure it's without a charger but still
|
ah yes i like me some of that good ol' 30Ah BMS
|
well if the bms is 30ah you dont even need a battery
|
Hmmmmmmm, i mean, theirs looks like it has more cells HMM.. üëÄ I will ignore the fact that it looks like a penny roll collection started in 2013
|
/s
|
when cleaning your frame or anny parts, if you are using 100% iso alc make sure first the paint is non reactive to the cleaning agent.....
|
my ktm frame and its paint could handle it
|
my gsr hooli paint looked good, but after 1 min the paint started lightly rubbing of and now its all sticky üòê
|
> wait i'm looking at their site and they have this comparison banner of how the batteries are built
|
@Zed where did you see that?
|
on the em3ev site
|
@larossmann
|
I thought you meant that unitpack power had stole the image
|
no, the image was stolen from them
|
haha
|
Oh I thought the same as rossmann
|
Where is UPP showing that image exactly?
|
EM3ev has been using it on their homepage since at least 2017.
|
And UPP didn't start adding cell-level fusing to their product descriptions until around the time of the housefire lawsuit.
|
i'll try to find that again
|
ok that's weird
|
their official store doesn't seem to load
|
it works on mobile though
|
Their AliExpress store isn't loading on desktop for me either. Odd.
|
AliExpress loads, and from there, I can find and look at their batteries on desktop just fine. But when I click any link to their storefront, it's not there.
|
UPP does seem to like using these sort of pictures in their listings, where they show cells without actually showing anything about the pack construction or quality thereof.
|
1S112P
|
LMAOOOOO
|
Pretty sure the entire basis of UPP's counter-argument against their blame in the Louis fire is that he caused an external overcurrent event.
|
Which, here, they're advertising protection against, along with short circuit protection.
|
Also, there's that 1S pack layout again. :P
|
WHY would a 1s back have a balance function
|
HAHHAHA
|
here take another 1s ebike battery
|
UPP really put a lot of time and effort into getting that wrong. lol
|
lol at least you dont have to worry about them not being balanced
|
Wtf is 'charge reverse protection' lol
|
@NCC1941 New wireless battery technology!
|
It means it won't discharge through the charge lead I think
|
I've killed a boost converter with a battery which fed current backwards through the charge lead
|
Ideally you want the protection on both sides
|
the battery which killed the boost converter had 2x 14 awg discharge leads and 1x dc barrel jack charge lead
|
if it doesn't have the reverse current protection, yes
|
then maybe i somehow ended up on a listing that just pretended to be unitpackpower
|
meaning they not only stole em3ev pictures but also UPP's
|
since if you steal twice it cancels out
|
:think:
|
That is correct
|
So looks like $1800 to get that bike going before considering things like stem, chains, derailers, etc
|
Maybe down to $1500 with a tiny battery
|
Starting to wonder if that frame is actually worth it or if I should start looking at hub drives again
|
It's a really good deal on a big dummy frame :P
|
Also, what's the cost breakdown
|
Let's imagine you wanted to do it as cheaply as possible. $550 for the frame, $500 for a battery, $400 for the motor kit, $150 for the wheels
|
that's with a cyclone
|
so about $1550
|
that's also with a 20Ah battery
|
so that would be 2kw with 20Ah
|
then you'd have to include things like stem, chains, etc
|
so maybe add in another $400
|
$1950
|
for that frame with a really good drivetrain
|
that seems worth it to me
|
That's cheaper than I'm finding motor kits
|
Oh, cyclone is that cheap
|
Yes
|
Cyclone is $400
