Finale is great, not been for a few years now.
I expect it's easier to rent a specialized battery, being they are pretty much the same since 2019.
There seems to be many incompatible Bosch batteries though, different lengths, smart, non smart, horizontal, vertical.
Details on who shipped the...
I've managed another test on the vtoman today, charging a Bosch 500 external battery from pretty much zero. This is on my ride to the shops ebike.
Took 3 hours.
Wattmeter indicated .49 kwh consumed.
Vtoman indicates 53% left.
The output started around 200wh tailing down to 50wh as the battery...
I've never really washed my kenevo, mainly as I don't ride in the wet or mud.
The motor is over 3.5 years old.
However this year I did a few muddy rides and hosed it off. Afterwards there was a rusty stain coming from the crank bearings and the the chainring was stuck to the crank when...
Super morzine road gap. First visit since 2019. I had never done this previously, so pleased to get it ticked off last year.
Age 54.
On my Nicolai DH bike here but I did do it on my kenevo afterwards.
How odd. I've never played any of them so have no idea.
I would kick a ball with my right foot. I certainly wouldn't fancy doing jumps with left foot forward.
I thought I would try the solar panels seeing as the sun has briefly come out, although very weak.
Fit on the roof fine. I would lock them if leaving the van, but I would like to think they wouldn't get stolen from dirt farms carpark or similar.
Currently outputting 155w. I'm sure in the summer...
And another machine failure.
Since ordering early November, build was :-

now week 10. To be taken with a hefty pinch of salt I recon..
Still not overly bummed, but getting closer to the start of the season.
Interesting results so far.
Charging the unit from flat took 1.75kw.
Running a 1kw heater.
Ran for 76mins and supplied 1.33kw before going flat.
The previous test was running the TV for 13 hours which used drew 60 -100w and ran out after supplying .8kw.
So I guess they are super inefficient...

Have you done a load capacity test yet with one of them plugin mains watt meters?
I expected to get around 1200wh useable from the rated 1548wh.
It's only done 800wh before switching off, so about 50% down.
I'm repeating the test tomorrow then will be getting hold of them...
And it's stopped for me. For the previous few days it seemed I got a full screen ad for vtoman between each post in a thread. (I had been researching vtoman)
The annoying one that drops down from the top and covers the icons has also stopped.
Arrived today. The panels are frikkin massive and heavy! I think any hope of draping them over my van roof has gone out the window.
Currently running my telly. I recon I should save at least £10 / month by charging it overnight on economy7 elecy and powering the tv and perhaps playstation during...
There was another off-road place in that area years back I recall, porc or something like that?
Places seem to come and go, but it does feel like more are going currently.
My b1ke membership costs me £180 and last year I visited 50 times. I would still be pretty miffed and wouldn't renew if they...
