    What an amazing piece of hardware. You’re lucky to know that Roger guy.
    Thanks Marty

    I just bought the Commander Mini! It will be my first electric vehicle of ANY KIND! I would like to thank you and the rest of the community for inspiring me.....I look forward to ripping up the mountains here in WV!!!

    I bought mine on aliexpress before i ever heard of Roger. Its truly a game changer.
    I just received the Roger EV adapter and its so tiny! Cant wait to try it out.

    Be careful, on a 120v outlet, this charger can only do 1500w. At 134v and 12 amps you are at 1600w which is above the max rating fot this charger at 120v. I blew mine charging the patton (126v) at 14a on a 120v outlet.

    • @ElectricUnicycles
      @ElectricUnicycles  Год назад

      From our experience most non-residential outlets support ~20-amps. But good advice. I assume that you mean your circuit breaker reset?

      @@ElectricUnicycles
      I’m referring to the chargers maximum, not the outlet. At 120v input current, charging beyond 1500w (voltage x amps = watts) will overheat and potentially damage the charger. At 240v (on an ev station) it can do up to 3000w.
      Ask Roger he will confirm it. ✌️

      The 1500W number is conservative.... I have charged at 15A plenty. I have also charged at 3000W on 220V. But if you exceed recommended values, you get no sympathy from me if it goes boom.

    Wonder if the fans are the correct size/voltage to be replaced with some noctua fans... 🤔 Would be curious if they'd be able to cool this beast while keeping things a bit quieter, though... 😅

    Can he retrofit V2 to V3? I find having to multimeter the tenths a pain if you bump the setting accidentally since the display doesn’t show tenths over 100V due to the 3 digit display. It seems less likely on V3 to have to do that once set.

    • @ElectricUnicycles
      @ElectricUnicycles  Год назад

      V3 is accomplished in China so I doubt V2 can be modded. You can always ask Roger.

    • @roghaj
      @roghaj Год назад +2

      Possible yes. The first V3 was just a V2 that I modified so I can send photos and videos to the factory. It was a major pain the the butt though. Sell you V2 and buy a V3

    Does your Commander Mini Charge up to 134.4 Volts with this charger? Have you done a PDB bypass?

    • @ElectricUnicycles
      @ElectricUnicycles  11 месяцев назад

      I haven't had the need to fast charge the Mini yet but there's nothing special about it that would prevent a full charge with Roger's charger. No bypass performed

    • @ElectricUnicycles

      We don't have must traffic in the mountains and I ride defensively with a helmet mounted mirror so I always have great situational awareness, knowing the cars approaching me from behind are giving me plenty of space.

      @@EUCWayOfLife Sure. When spread across the four battery packs and many cells, it's not much really. At home I usually use the 3-amp stock charger. But when you're in a hurry it's a nice option.

  • @robm425
    @robm425 Год назад +1

    Careful charging on 110v outlets at 12amps you are drawing a bunch of power and more likely to trip breaker on 110 outlets. I don't charger faster than 8amps with a 134.4v wheel on 110 outlet.

    • @ElectricUnicycles
      @ElectricUnicycles  Год назад +1

      Haven't had that issue but yeah, be aware of the load on the circuit that you are using. Breakers are easy to reset 😊and most outlets in the wild seem to support 20-amps.

    • @robm425
      @robm425 Год назад +2

      @ElectricUnicycles oh I know that the outlets support 20amps but I have seen breakers trip on 110v even with 20amp outlets, likely the circuit itself isn't dedicated to outlet, but personally rather play it safe and allow others to charge rather then get to destination and outlet be down, cause I couldnt wait an extra 15minutes.

    I sure wouldn't be happy running 12A through a single GX16, even using twinned pins. Given theres 2 ports on the wheel, I'd be utilising them and running 6A through each. No doubt you and others have done it on a single port plenty of times before though so you're prob happy with it.

    • @JoshuaMothis
      @JoshuaMothis Год назад

      Yeah they’re rated for 10 amps which is why they come with two ports, they wouldn’t add a whole extra port for two standard chargers because they are trying to maximize profit and that costs money, plus who is actually gonna buy a second standard charger? Like basically nobody
