  • An overview and ride of a 12HP electric bicycle I build awhile back.
    Specs:
    Briggs and Stratton Etek electric motor
    44.4V 15Ah LiPo battery
    300A motor controller
    45km/h top speed
    Acceleration 0.5G "Limited by flipping over"

    I´m a big friend of selfmade electric vehicles.
    Your Bike is a big inspiration for me! Thank you.
    Some years ago i saw the "eRockit" Bike and was blown away how cool this thing was (and even is).
    But the whole thing is even cooler when it looks selfmade with brain and love!
    Sorry for my bad english. Keep on exploring, explaining and inventing, Daniel from Germany.

    I'm just learning about circuitry and electric motors and actually was wanting to build an e bike from a stingray that originally was my brothers and has been sitting under a porch for a decade. Your post is very informative and is explained well. Thanks

    Absolutely splendid!
    Well done indeed.
    I am starting on a project like this, but it will never be quite so powerful.
    Indeed, if I can deliver 1 to 2 HP to the road, I will be mighty pleased.
    Keep up the good work.

    The motor is beautiful. My 1Hp when double voltage would cook even with 1/3rd the weight on a run like that . I'd like to see the BMS schematic and software but only for night reading purposes albeit incomplete or messy. I too built my first one around the same time with homemade controller also using pic16 & IRF1404(5). That is truly a fun looking machine!

    2 weeks ago I took delivery of my electric bike, the rules are quite diffrent in the Netherlands.
    In NL this would be considered a moped and you wouldn't be able to register or insure it (witch is mandatory for mopeds to drive on public roads)
    the most common electric bike in NL is the pedal assisted type, so you have to keep force on the chain or the motor will stop.
    max assisted speed is 25km/h.

    • @Dan-mu5oy
      @Dan-mu5oy 8 лет назад

      in the uk ebikes suck....
      the electric motor shouldn’t be able to propel the bike when it’s travelling more than 15.5mph
      the motor shouldn’t have a maximum power output of more than 250 watts
      It must also display one item from each of the following:
      the power output or manufacturer of the motor
      the battery’s voltage or maximum speed of the bike

  • @garyfisher4155
    @garyfisher4155 6 лет назад +1

    You need a decent front brake on that thing, the combined weight of you and the conversion parts has made it too heavy to stop safely and quickly from speed, but what a nice bike, well done.

  • @johnpossum556
    @johnpossum556 7 лет назад +2

    Excellent work! BTW for about $30 you can get bolt on frame attachment points to use a disc brake for that front. Of course you need to buy a new wheel with a disc brake. I'd recommend the ones with dot 3 break fluid -- super safe and the feel you get is just like a car's foot pedal only through the fingers. Any chances of sharing the 300 amp motor controller circuit?

  • @roycohen2013
    @roycohen2013 8 лет назад

    You mentioned that when you used regenerative braking you dumped 100 amps back into the batteries. What exactly defines the maximum amount of burst current you can feed into a lipo pack exactly? Is it just the charge C rating or does it only really matter that you dont overheat the pack and or charge it at a voltage that causes some kind of breakdown internally?

  • @aaba112
    @aaba112 7 лет назад +1

    Nice build :) But is that really 12hp on the wheels? Looking at videos on electrical bicycles with standard 1500w motors (2hp) seems to have very similar power as your creation. Maybe litte less acceleration on a hub motor but they are much faster.

    Wow, so much custom work! Very impressive results, of course great performance, but also great flexibility. Those little RC batteries have amazing energy density and the current makes me a little frightened. Did you consider a thermal cut-off, or did I miss it?
    When you described a street legal ebike I knew you lived in Ontario, but I can't place your town.

    • @tesla500
      @tesla500  8 лет назад +1

      Thanks! The batteries make me nervous too, something like 1000A short circuit current each! it's nerve wracking making those connections in that tiny box.
      There is a thermistor so the BMS knows the battery temperature, yes.
      I'm in Vancouver, BC actually, BC and Ontario both have similar laws I believe.
