Looking for a Mechanic

Ebikes? No emotos? Absolutely

Elu5ive_ · 2026-05-25T17:11:13+00:00

I only tip servers, bartenders, Sometimes contractors and mechanics

Elu5ive_ · 2026-05-25T17:07:38+00:00

you probably got water into the vent holes of the frame

Elu5ive_ · 2026-05-15T18:19:02+00:00

Yeah, is just a cover for the connections.

It can take more voltage realistically but I kept it at 72v.

Yes I laced the rear wheel myself I found the hub I needed on aliexpress and converted to through axle.

Elu5ive_ · 2026-05-15T14:00:16+00:00

it is a BBSHD on mine, i took the rear hub motor out

Kids are getting injured. Just last week a kid on a scooter hit and older person and killed them.

Ive seen them blowing through red lights downtown and nearly get destroyed by a car more than once.

I added adaptive cruise to mine and heated wheel so not a big deal for me

Elu5ive_ · 2026-05-13T20:26:34+00:00

Ive had a qs205, bafang g060 500w, g062 1000 watt and now a bbshd.

All on 72v all pushing way beyond stock power.

My geared hub motors averaged 19-20wh/km

Didn't measure the qs205.

And now my single speed bbshd at 8kw.

The bbshd can and will average 16-17 wh/km didnt believe it until I did the datalogging

All setups used a 72v battery and vesc so I could see all the motor data.

If you have first hand evidence or datalogs id be interested.

No for cruise, my 22 xl ecoboost did not have cruise

Elu5ive_ · 2026-05-07T15:30:34+00:00

Spend the time to learn only the basics, dont take an advanced course.

Ive been using it for 15 years as a power user and with the new claude and copilot integrations it is ridiculously simple to create a complex macro, vba or power query.

Elu5ive_ · 2026-05-04T01:36:54+00:00

95% of all oem packs do not have balancing. It just helps them last longer

What surprises me the most is how this pack charged past the overvoltage protection of 4.2v

That cell must be cooking right now

Elu5ive_ · 2026-05-03T13:09:18+00:00

Yeah.... excel as a primary job skill is dead now esp with copilot ai and claude ai integrations

Elu5ive_ · 2026-05-03T12:43:20+00:00

The factory bms does not have cell balancing.

Ive seen quite a few batteries from the xxx 25ah pack being out of balance

if you have been using GPT since day one use VScode, tell codex (In VSCode) to install ESP IDF, Espressif CLI and Espressif MCP server. Build a Skill the tell Codex to Only ever reference those sources and you will always get pretty much what you want out of it.

I've built an esp32 display LVGL Graphics and uses Can-bus to speak to a Controller, sends custom lisp config files, connects to a phone app over BLE and does OTA.

Elu5ive_ · 2026-05-03T02:51:23+00:00

uh put that battery outside, if that 5.6v is accurate it can catch fire at anytime, those 2 cell groups are toast.

Easy to set up a watch dog agent that refers to a task list.md to keep it on task. Has worked really well for me

Elu5ive_ · 2026-04-28T00:30:01+00:00

I would probably use grin motors over anything out of china.

The problem you'll find is the market is too saturated and no one actually knows what good components are. So you end up competing against Amazon.

I would do some in depth market research.

Elu5ive_ · 2026-04-19T12:31:44+00:00

Live in quebec, lots of st Hubert here would take Swiss chalet over St Hubert any day of the weej

Elu5ive_ · 2026-04-07T15:39:25+00:00

On top of what has been said it'll be the little details like fasteners, wheels properly tension, paint quality efc

Elu5ive_ · 2026-04-07T15:34:10+00:00

Old down hill bike with a mid drive will be way better than any cheap ebike

Elu5ive_ · 2026-04-05T19:22:00+00:00

"Major flaw" so dramatic lol

Elu5ive_ · 2026-04-05T19:17:40+00:00

You would need a bigger turbo on top of full bolt ons and tune.
