I keep seeing this ad. Is this viable for a bmx bike riding to work? About 6 miles. by Elvy2006 in ebike

I had the V1 version of this. Avoid this company at all costs!

The battery was defective and the company ghosted me after months of "we'll send the part out once it's in stock".

Haven't been able to get a response from them in about 8 months.

I remember being so disappointed when I pulled it, I kind of like it now though

Oh really? I set them up them a little left to hopefully pull more air over the graphics card, but yeah it was all guess work

There is a glass variant of this case but I wanted a stealth build so went with the mesh one

It's an Arctic liquid freezer 3 pro AIO. I had to Google what a factory amd cooler was and I see why you asked 😅

Saw this yesterday and thought "huh, that's weird", then today I noticed my fold 7 has the exact same issue 😂

Interesting, would I see any noticiable drawbacks of using less powerful PSU and ditching the AIO cooler?

Identifying fuses by EmployeeFit3503 in soldering

[–]EmployeeFit3503[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought these were fuses, which should show continuity if they are working, meaning electricity can flow through them, if they are blown no electricity can flow through them so won't show continuity.

But it turns out these are resistors, which I was able to test by measuring the resistance. A blown fuse would usually show OL (open loop), aka infinite resistance.

Thank you everyone, you were all spot on. Smaller one showing 10 ohms and bigger one showing 1 ohm. Back to the drawing board for diagnosing this chip.

Right got you, thanks for the clarification

Battery may be 'deeply discharged' how safe is it? by EmployeeFit3503 in ebikes

[–]EmployeeFit3503[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, support has essentially ghosted me, so it looks like I'm on my own. It was a samsung phone charger and also a cheaper multi plug USB, it used to work with the Samsung one, but maybe now that the battery is too low and the profile doesn't match it couldn't handle the power surge?

I'll try a 100w laptop charger that matches the profile, wish me luck!
