Shimano EP8 Booster testing.

[Gutch]

You can remove the booster and tether cable with the strap to use waterbottle.
Trailwatts has been thrown around in enduro’s and extreme jumps for years by customers.
The system will drain both batteries under load sharing values. Your battery display will drop slower as invisible to bike.
As I am only altering the harness with no affect to the bikes electronics there should be no issues when motor/ factory battery need attention.

Sounds good! Lmk when you’re in the US.

252wh pack, It’s not just the wh that makes the bikes range. The advantages of load sharing the batteries through the Trailwatts module also helps?

Can you explain that more? Thanks!

Can you explain that more? Thanks!

When you share the load across dual batteries (not bosch system by turning each battery on and off throughout percentage discharge), you are reducing the discharge rate from the factory battery which allows for a steady depletion which in turn provides increased range.

Any idea when you will be ready to sell it?

I’ve started fitting shimano systems. I require to bike to do the build and fitment.

If you can fit a 500ml waterbottle below the shock then it’s possible.

Any updates on boasters for the EP8? I’ve got a 2020 heckler MX and would love to find a battery booster solution.

Make that two Heckler MX owners in the U.S. looking for more battery.

Does it matter what motor it is if you are just adding battery to power the motor, I’m trying to add to my E7000 with a 504 battery and figured I could just splice into the battery power cable with an on/off switch?
