No complaints. Although be aware you don't get 1500wh from it. More like 1000wh based on testing with a specialized charger drawing about 180w. So good enough for 1 full charge and 2 lunchtime partial charges with a 700wh bike battery.

Edit oh the jump? I would suggest the flashspeed being similar in price and newer.

Cheers thanks for reply

This is the one I'm looking at

Yes that's the one. Dont mix up the jump and the flashspeed, quite different.

Ok thank you

We’ve started using ours too. We charge the range extenders on our lightweight bikes (after using them initially) in the boot of the car whilst out riding the trails. By the time we’ve used the bike battery up the range extenders are fully charged again, so we get another hour or so of riding,. Result. Way cheaper than buying two more range extenders

Have you used the ecoflow delta max? As can get that for a similar price and it's a bit bigger power 2016wh and 2400w not sure which one to go as so many options

I may do a test tomorrow if I get a chance at Cwmcarn with the 1200w suitcase generator to see how much it can recharge the Orbea/Mondraker. If I find a nice quiet area of car park it shouldn't trouble anyone

It will be a nice quiet area until you turn up with your noisy smelly generator

I just use a cheap deep cycle car battery, solar panel on top of my trailer, and 300 watt converter. I only charge one bike so it works pretty good. I can charge my bike while at work, and then it's good to go when I get off. The trail I like is an hour and a half away, so taking my bike with me in the trailer is convenient, especially since I work regularly at a plant that's only 15 minutes from the trailhead!
