Hi! that 67% increase in capacity, what means in terms of durability of the battery in one charge? I mean, at what mile range could last that battery? Will be more than 2o miles running distance?

Had mine 4 mos and battery won’t charge. They are sending me a whole new bike so I figured I’ll just replace the battery like you show here. Thanks!!!

Your videos are awesome. Very informational and easy to follow.

Like your hosting personality. Keep the great content coming. AWESOME 👍🏼

Fantastic, thank you! I just did this upgrade, but I like your tip to reuse the factory charging port. Wish I'd seen your video first! I also liked how you weighed both batteries to show the weight difference.

Yes, I like your presentation style also. I'm in the process of this upgrade. The links were extremely helpful in that aspect. Not a cheap upgrade but it will hopefully allow for those more ambitious rides without worry. The extra battery could be used for a second Bolt with a 12 Amp, Dual battery setup. Hmm ... Thank you, a lot! 🙂

Been using CAOMM batteries in all my ebikes for four years now. they're good batteries

if you're old like me, you dont have to mod it, it's quite an adventurous bike and takes some time to tame before you go that route. The younger gen is more accustomed to this stuff, but with the speed hack, I dont really want to go much faster, I cant take a fall very well I imagine.

It's a great starter e-bike. I bought it because it's one of the few that can handle a taller heavier rider. I'm just outside the weight limit of most of the less expensive bikes. Im considering a few mod options like getting a dual battery connector so I'd have even greater range(need it to compensate for weight drawing on the battery). Eventually I plan on getting something with a Bosh cargo motor, but they're pricey.

I love the channel so much

I’ve been watching all you’re videos and really enjoy your work! I’m researching a upgrade for my new Dyu d3f (idk if it’s exactly the same or not) but I want to upgrade from the stock 36v 10ah to a 48v 12ah and what I think I learned is this; the engine is not a problem it can handle it, and the stock controller should be able to handle it as long as it says eg 36-48v or something similar.. is it something else I need to research before I move on and do the upgrade? Thanks!

A great video. These bikes are so moddable lol 🤣 new subscriber here 🙏🏻

I love your style. Subscribed easily. What are you doing with the old original battery?

Great vid, would you be willing to sell that cable you made? I want my bike to look stock but to be secretly upgraded

Thank you for good vibes but i have question how many mails will gv with this new battery 🔋 and did the speed will different

Thanks! Is there some trick to getting the battery brackets back on? I used the first method the easy method so the battery is backwards. And I pointed the cables up. The brackets didn't fit back on even though I noted their position when I removed them. I just screwed the cover back on because everything seemed tight. Just took my first chili ride of 2023 today, looking forward to many more with 10 amps of confidence. 🙂

Hi Yuthrtgher, great resource and video. Thanks for it! I try the link for the 36 10ah, but does not seem to ve available anywhere. Can i get the 48v 10 ah instead? I think the size kf battery is the same right?

Nice!!

How many miles can you get on that new battery

I have a swagtron envy electric bike that battery was only a 4.4 amp I got a 14 amp battery for it it is 36 volts too but I was having problems with it I think it’s to much for the motor controller at first it was doing good then it was keeping cutting off malfunction and the motor controller was warm or hot but I was only getting about 11 or so miles I should be getting more then that

Would it be better to mount the new battery on a rear rack? That way you can bring it somewhere to charge where bikes aren't allowed.

Howmany miles and how long the battery last until it 0% dead

I weigh 230 pounds and my pro only went about 8 miles total before dying with 2 uphill roads *bridges* and I want to try this upgrade but what will I expect for the new mileage? 6 more miles or so? And with it being 48V will the bike go faster? Or just end up discharging at the same rate as the old one anyway?

@YouTruther

Жыл бұрын

5-6 miles more is about right. 48v battery has even higher capacity, but you'll end up going faster and that drains faster, so it evens out. if you want a boat load of range, check out the double battery video, and then get one gigantic battery to mount outside and you can triple your range easily, or more.

And for the jetson haze?

Used A123 LifePO4 cells, 14s for 46 nominal and 49 full. Only need a 10a BMS because 46 x 10 is obviously way more than a 250w motor. The results? Less CAPACITY. Half of the stock, which is a big cost, but...since I built the whole battery, there is less than 3% voltage drop on full power and I unlocked the speed with Arduino code. Why am I posting this? Because on stock when I unlocked, it still sucked going up hills. Also max speed was 18 mph. I am not sure if it has to do with the thicker gauge wiring i used for the whole battery and the lack of voltage drop, but the thing goes 22 mph on the upgraded LifePO4 battery and the 250w motor doesn't struggle as much. For some reason on stock batteries there is a voltage drop of up to 10% which obviously isn't that good on full power. that and I can recharge the sucker thousands of times. Good for a 3 mile work/3 mile home commute. Also these cells can be charged quickly so I have it wired up to quick charge and still will get >1000 cycles at 95% DoD. 8 amps in = 20 minute from dead to full charge.

if you've got this thing tuned ok, then it's like a normal small tire bike, not going to be fast, but sure beats walking.

I really wish people would STOP tampering with the batteries on E vehicles in a dangerous attempt to increase speed or range. Each product is SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED AND INTENDED by the manufacturer to use a specific battery type and number for safety purposes related to the specific vehicle in question and according to the owners manual the FCC actually has the authority to take away the end user's legal right to operate the vehicle if they make unauthorized modifications of any kind. If range and speed are a problem then perhaps you should consider driving a regular internal cumbustion engine powered vehicle or a bicycle instead? These electric powered vehicles (razor scooters,electric go karts etc.) were NEVER intended to be used as an alternative to a pedal powered bicycle as an alternate means of transportation....they were designed to be relatively affordable riding toys for older kids and younger light weight adults.
