A useful thing to have but What I would really like from Bosch is a USBC charge port or adapter, such that you could charge it with your phone or laptop charger while you are at work, even at lower rate, say 60W than the supplied (big heavy 150W brick with the weird proprietary plug) which would negate the need to carry the brick to work and if implemented properly the USBC (has to be C) port could be used to charge other things from the main battery adding greatly to its utility. I would note that a Dewalt power tool battery of similar capacity and voltage is less than half the price. Whilst economies of scale and competition are in play, it does seem a little expensive.
Thanks Arleigh for this heads up. This looks very useful. I see for the Tern HSD gen2 you are using the towards frame mount cable. What length cable would you recommend for a neat fit? Does the cable come with the correct plug for the gen2 charging socket. Can the mount be reversed on the HSD gen 2 to have the battery socket closer to the charging socket and a shorter cable? Sorry to pepper you with questions!
Scott - great questions. The harness is designed to mount in only one direction. You could flip it but then the plug is at the top. The connector cable is the 300. I will update the description to include part numbers for everything.
Does the battery mount look strong enough to handle holding onto the weight of the battery if you were offroad, and there was a lot of motion in the bike (downhill, rocks, ruts, and lots of knocking about)? Or does it seem more of a light duty kind of thing...city use, light groomed trails, and that sort of thing?
Scott Patron 920 bike shop had to do some modifications main one being to make a bracket to attach the power more bracket to, can’t post a picture because I can’t see any way to on this thread
Hey!!! Gurl… What Up ??? ??? ??? Wanted To Ask, So Can I Or Anyone Use It On Any Electric Bike ??? ??? ??? Btw I Ride An “Emotorad” X 1 Which Is An E-MTB, With An External Battery, As My Daily Commuter Here In Cochin City Kerala India… If Not, Which Extra Battery Extender Pack Would Be Ideal For Me To Get An Extended Maximum Range
Not able to find. Bosch does not talk to individual customers. The latest is that it may not be available until February or greater next year. Real let down.

I don’t know of a usbc that can charge such a large battery
Cool, the Tern HSD is one that I am considering. This additional 250 W battery looks like a great range extender!
Thanks for the rundown Arleigh! (and Bosch!)... this gives me so many ideas with my new Tern HSD.

What type of bracket did you need to make?!
Good to know I can reduce de total weight of my Tern by using a smaller battery!
Typical Tern.....always thinking ahead of EVERYONE !! Well done. Cheers
oh that is super cool and would be great for cargo bikes and delivery companies!
The HSD gen 2 is using the 300mm EB12.120.07C-1Y8
The Marlin+ size large is using 150mm EB12.120.036-1Y8
Which cable did you use on your Marlin? I have the same bike and can’t really find a definitive guide on the cables.. TIA
I’ve thought about making a spreadsheet!
It’s the 150. EB12.120.036-1Y8
Question- would this work for a tern HSD P10?
Yep!! It’s the gen 2 with smart system!!
I have a vitilan v3 electric bike can the Bosch work on it?
