This whole venture started to that I could avoid the 10% battery penalty for having the light circuit active in the first place, otherwise I would have just left the lights wired in traditionally like they had been for over a year. But I understand why you have done it that way using the bigger...

Thanks for this @All4Fun I guess this is what I have been looking for! So I can use this cable to replace the current one from battery to the motor and plug the lights in via the blue connector with a buck converter in line, 36v to 12v. I guess I should add a fuse before the buck converter...

@ShinySideUp what length did you end up going with, from memory your original was 120, is that right?

I gave up on the warranty as soon as I bought it! I like this and will look into it. I wonder how much current the converter will draw when not in use… anything?

Hi @Swiss Roll, You can read my exploits here: Running lights from Bosch gen 4 power port... - EMTB Forums I was trying to avoid the 10% power cut off when running lights. Unfortunately the Bosch Aux Port has a max output of 1amp, the Front Light port is 1.5amp… The charger you linked pulls...

As a note there is also the setup feature, but it sounds like you are doing that. Press minus for 5secs, release minus and within 1sec press plus for 5sec. Speed will display 11.1km/h for 10sec 10.0 km/h is displayed for 6secs, and bis is speed factor adjustment =100% I don’t think this should...

Yeah that was my response… it reinforced what others had probably known about me all along…

I have been a long-time user and abuser of Volspeed 3 and have had this issue. Excerpt from page 8 of the manual "If the display changes from 11.1 directly to 0.0, the wiring of the module is faulty. The 2-pin connector to the motor is connected to the wrong socket." I ended up emailing where...

I don't think you will be disappointed with the 120, It ticks all your boxes. I initially ordered a 2020 Radon Render as my first bike, and paid in full, then I realised it was more bike than I needed... I ended up getting the Mondraker hardtail and have zero regrets, not to mention the money...

Here is a whole thread here discussing the pros and cons, you should read it. Cube Stereo or Reaction - EMTB Forums 🤦🏼‍♂️

Yeah why the new Mondraker doesn’t have removable batteries is a deal breaker for many, last years model has it! As a note on geometry; the XL Heckler is only 1mm longer wheelbase and 5mm longer reach, but the L Mondraker has a 12mm shorter stem… I wonder if the new Heckler you are looking at...

Mondraker, such as Crafty, have a notoriously long reach, 500mm, and long wheelbase, 1300mm, which is slightly longer than the Rail.

Hi mate, I have only just found this sub forum... Nice work! I find it interesting and practical that you test range with de-restriction. I ride a 2020 Mondraker with Bosch gen 4 and Volspeed 3 and it has been amazing, I just set it at 60kmph and send it (I figured if I'm going that fast it is...

Yeah when the battery indicator is down to about 20% (another good reason to have a dongle) the cut-off is imminent, you don’t know if you will make it 5mins or 5miles… Someone mentioned earlier that the 6v did not impose the early cut-off, but I would rather take the full light output...

I wouldn't, but I'm not most. Really if you are mostly commuting you don't need FS or 120mm is plenty. I commute a load on mine and do some big days out in mountains and the hardtail suits me great, look what Blake Samson can do on a hardtail: Megavalanche 2019 On A Hardtail! | Blake Samson...

Yes, I wondered if the voltage between the 2 different lights needed to be stabilised or similar. The Supernova M99 will run between 5 - 13,5 V DC and will auto-detect the highest voltage it can run at. So I guess splicing the two is fine. So I just went over the tech specs, here in lies the...

I appreciate the replies Shockwave but it is not what I am hoping to achieve. Does anyone with electronics experience have a suggestion of how to wire two lights in to one power port, i.e. do I need a resistor or anything, or is simple splicing the best method?

Yes, thats what I am trying to avoid. By enabling the light feature the assist cuts off at 10%, no drop in power or throttling, just cuts off to save the lights. It has left me a few times short a few times just a mile or so from my destination… and it doesn’t matter if the lights are on or off...

I have been running it from the AUX power port for 4 months now, the same on my wifes bike. But with some issue! I run a Lupine C 14 rear light and a Supernova m99 mini pro 25 front light. I don’t have the numbers in front of my but I was sure that their combined amp was less than the max...

Chain Reaction have a 130mm travel recon on sale…
