Love it. Does the battery lock into the adapter? I personally think after a dedicated name brand ebike battery, a Ego or Toro or similar 48 to 60 volt power tool battery platform should be the go to for a build. Why put up with cells packed tight, getting overheated, of questionable quality, on a generic ebike battery when you can use ones that have 3 year warranty (or 5 for the 10 Ah Ego) and have better thermal management? Only addition would be to add a simple weather tight sort of cover to use during inclement weather if you are commuting with it. They are already ruggedized and fully potted from the factory as well, lending them to the harsh environment of outdoor power tools.
Like the comment below, I am wondering if the EGO battery will get in the way of peddling? Also, if you use peddle assist mode (50% power, etc.), how long would a 5ah ego battery last? (est miles). Thank you.
I was thinking about this and bybthe way I like how you put the links in for the adapters but with my 48v and 1000w hub motor mod along with the original battery on my Lectric ebike I could probably easily get 30 miles out of it without even worring too much about the speeds I'm going. Of course if I went all out probably only 10-15 miles but being conservative with the power may definitely get about 40 mi plus which I spent 899 plus tax and another $700 for the new mods. I thought being a 56v it would give better more range and power but I'm sure amps and all have a factor which I'm not too familiar with. Good video.
I am getting ready to convert my MTB to an e-bike using EGO batteries. The Wattage meter you reference, where can I find it for sale? Is there another name I can search on?
I use a 7.5ah battery on my custom electric Catrike Villager. It performs better than my 48v pack. My controller is shunt modded and probably can draw 50amps, which my 48v battery will not be able to handle. The 48v battery has shut down on occasions of high draw. This EGO battery has no problem with my shunt modded controller.
For long commute, you can add two adapter and two ego batteries with DPDT switch on bike back seat and swap power on/off between two battery 🍺😜
You could, but simply swap batteries is much easier.
I thinking put controller and two batteries in plastic enclosure with lock 🔐 too

As it's long slide in to the battery. It hold the battery strong and solid.

This concept is already being used, On a 250 watt brush motor. Companies know this. Now cats out of bag, Ego batteries may rise. Time will tell.
excellent video , enjoy so much

Ordered your adapter off Etsey. Want to see if I can pedal or if battery gets in the way.
Did the battery get in the way? Looking at doing the same thing but the battery seems very wide.
@@nickwilliams1953 Not really but each frame may put battery at different location an cause clearance issue.
indeed bro
What hub motor are you running? Size specs?
just subscribed
Are these batteries save on the wheelchair handcycle bike also? We normal have a battery around 350-500w 48 or 50 v with 8AH ~22AH
yes. ego 56v battery can directly replace any 48v system.
It's all good if you want to go slow and not far it's perfect 😜
For high speed check out my 80v ebike:

I'm interested in your adapter, but how does it connect to XT60 connectors?
I can install xt60 connector for you.
@@JerryMinne oh cool. Can I ask for that when I order?
I'll send you $10 bill for that once you order the adapter.

Are the adapters 3D printed?
Yes.
Do u have video on ego batteries on recumbent
It can be mounted on any frame.

I have Ryobi 40v batteries and a 36 v front wheel motor. Do you have any adapter suggestions for mounting Ryobi?
Sorry. Only ryobi has different terminal. I can't make adapter for it.
Your fork is spun backwards you probably hit your feet on front tire when you turn
