As always great vídeo mate, always one step ahead in the ebike sector. Keep up the good work
Informative video. I use a Goal Zero 1500x wired to my trucks alternator in teh bed of my truck it allows me to run a fridge and charge my Santa Cruz Bullit with 630wh battery while camping for multiple days. Love it!
If you have the space, a huge residential style solar panel of 340-380W can be bought for like 125-150 euro's.
These things are very affordable now, and prices continue to drop.
I love solar and i have been off grid for about 2 years. There is something special about generating your own electricity from the sun, and then using it to power your bike, laptop, fridge etc.
mate the only draw back to our campervan is the roof size... really not much space but we run hot water,cooking and heating on gas so it seems ok for now..
When we’re on the road we use a 1.2kw portable generator. I have a 60 ft lead which we plug in the campervan and put the generator in the trees so it doesn’t disturb anyone . The beauty is it charges the camper and the batteries are safe inside the van . It’s a must for winter in the uk and less than £300 .
Honda 1kw inverter generator, job done😉
😂😂😂💯 perfect
I'm looking into a good off-grid solution and the Honda keeps popping up as the one to get.
I have a 500W battery with an inverter built in, and 120W foldable solar panel. Takes about 5 -6 hours in direct sunlight to recharge the 500W portable battery.
I can charge my current ebike battery (48V 14.3AH) in about 2 - 3 hours on this setup.
Do you think I'd do better with the generator?
I ordered a new ebike with a 52V 28AH battery so I'm assuming it takes a much longer time to charge, even if possible.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance...
@@ericeaton1552 get an extra solar panel job done ✅
@@justbikesanvesh9549 OMG!
Thank you.
That seems so obvious now that you've mentioned.
I guess you could say I've just had a DUH moment.
Ha ha ha.
Embarrassing...
Thanks again.
@@ericeaton1552 u should carry both man in the night what are u gonna do count the stars anyway ha ha ha thank you
Great video. We have been camping with our ebikes a few times this year. We have a similar setup in our camper to your van, with 300W panels and a smaller inverter. We also and have a similar 500W stand alone with its own 100W portable panel. We use the 500W unit when the camper is in the shade or as an emergency source. We recently rode our Levo SL bikes for 8 days in a row with this setup and also ran the fridge and other electrical loads. Charging both bikes everyday from about 3 bars capacity to full.
thanks Eric sounds like you have a rad set up as well... The Levo or Kenevo SL are fanstic for this type of travel. I can charge mine so quickly
Do you think a jackery 300 would charge a 48v 20ah battery ?
Buddy good to see your on the road mate. I’ve been waiting for someone to touch on charging off grid, but going a step further I’m hoping that if you want to go bike packing a simple lightweight charge could be on the cards so you could be totally self reliant. Could a vinyle solar panel be used to charge your battery? I would love to know if this is possible and how?
Cheers
I got 320 watt solar over topper on my truck, 4 235 amp 6 volt batteries vented outside charge controller tied into altininator, love my set up.
rad set up...
Good video. I use my 2 wheel drive, 2 battery dual suspension E-CELLS bike for hunting in Nevada.
MY SOLUTION: Off Grid TREK 220 watt solar blanket CHARGING a BLUETTI AC200 MAX (lithium iron phosphate battery)
This system also works to keep my DC cooler running all day.
What a great camper van , I want that here in the states.
I just ordered an eb55 with a 200 watt solar panel and I cannot wait to see how far I can go with my wagon and my bike and that and also two extra batteries that I can charge while I'm riding I hope. I think I can charge while I'm using it from what I have researched it better be true extremely important to be able to charge it while you're using it. I think the new ones are different
Hi Sam and Mrs Sam,I've got a lithium 100ah connection to a 2000w inverter in the back of my Ute, does all our charging, 2×500w,lap top ,phones ,charges from car when driving, then when stopped have a solar blanket which we put over the wind screen, works a treat, energy from the Sun ,Cheers Mate, Herron, W.A.
hey mate sounds like a rad set up.. for me this is 100% learning until 6 weeks ago I had never thought about it.
Awesome, ecowflow is worth a look too
defo
Nice one Sam
i’ve just fitted My self
A 320W Solar system connected to 2x130amp battery’s +1000watt Sinewave inverter at a cost of £500
Works a treat 👍😎
Thats a great price mate... I paid like 2500 euros maybe too expensive but bought it all in one place and have peace of mind.
@@SamsBikes fitted it myself bud !! And spent a couple of weeks searching for the individual components to get at its cheapest . Also had leftover fittings and Cable in my workshop already .
not iinteractive at all like yours. though Nice to be able to see what’s going on from your phone
All the best Sam 👍
Link to the 1000w for 500 ?
@@anio6865 Do you want a link to the 1000w sinewave inverter or the complete set up ?
@@planeranger4147 link to the 1000watt inverter at cost of 500 or less
What size Bluetti Power Bank would you recommend to charge a Citroen Ami Quadricycle? It has a 6 kW electric motor operating at 48 V, with a 5.5kWh lithium battery. It plugs into a regular 240v wall socket here in the EU, and the specs say it uses an AC On-Board Standard Charger at 2.3 kW. Would the 500 Bluetti work? Is it a matter of charging slower with the lower level power bank, or is there a certain amount I need for that battery? Thx loads.
might have to get 1 of these
I fly a small plane, and I take my Montague folder e conversion with me, I had a electronics geek make me a 12 VDC to 58 VDC converter, for a bit over $200.00. That way I can charge while flying, with no inverter losses. I also have a belly mounted steamlined pod for carrying my two 11.5 AH batteries, plus a 6 AH one that stays on the bike, so a total of 29 AH! I dodn't have the extra room or weight capacity to pack PV or a gas gen set. By the time I use up all 29 AH's, I'm ready to go home anyway.
Thanks
im confused what kind of portable charge would be safe to use for a 48V 14.4Ah Lithium battery my ebike has a 350w hub motor i will be getting a 15ah battery soon for it i need to know what would be best for it becuase i am planning a ebike trip soon
When you said 500W power bank I think you mean a 500 Wh, especially since your subsequently clarified it was a 300 W unit. Great video otherwise, and I’m jealous of the batteries under the front seats! :-)
Ryders , would you believe that’s pretty awesome.
Thanks mate
Uk weather is terrible for solar. Max I get in 26deg sun is 100w from my 200w panels so I have 360ah battery bank.
Thats a good point maybe it is option one hahah
hi google 1772 to 120v adapter ebike , its a cable plugs into free and pay car charging stations , other end is regular plug for charger . i got 10ah charge in an hour , for free
I'm in the USA. When you say "on 24 power" is that the 220-240 volt AC that is delivered to your wall sockets at home? We, of course run on 110-120 VAC here, be we generally refer to it as "hunnert an ten" (110) not 11 or 12 power. Just want to understand fully what you're describing on your van setup.
Ok mate cheers
The shades ….. lord have mercy
Haha love them or hate them you will remember them its called marketing
Haha😂😂
For people like me who don't have a car and have an e-bike this is going to be amazing I can't wait I spent almost every dime I had so I can keep going and never have the magical word range anxiety which I never heard of until I got an e-bike and I know what it means LOL it wouldn't be so bad except I have one leg and I can't pedal ever it's always electric I'm using. I have gone 1300 miles so far I went camping 36 Mi away but now I will be able to go to Buffalo or Rochester on my e-bike and it's going to be so cool. And probably pretty damn heavy. Fifty pounds for the two batteries and the solar panel and the solar unit I will find out if it is feasible. Where I want to go down the Erie Canal Trail is all level. Are there a lot of hills in Australia I've never seen any
Have you considered towing a bike trailer to carry your charging system?
I have no experience, but it seems like a good question.
Hey can this charge the jetson bolt pro
Hey Sam, You're looking good man! Thanks for the content. Always spot on.
Hey, thanks training going well and eatting a little less...
What about a petrol generator? Not pretty but nor too pricey
What would be a good option to charge my sduro 480wh and my two sons 250w ebikes when we go campimg?
Na mate get maybe a 1000wh one
Sir can we charge my ev bike ?
(OBEN RORR) BIKE
One of the advantages of old age is , i get tired before my battery does .
Hey Sam , it looks like Eurobike is going to be a bust AGAIN for me , as i don't want to go through all the covid testing sht that Eurobike is demanding . 😭
Yep I hear you old man hahaha 😝 and 100% not sure what we are doing but covid tests don’t sound fun! I’ll be updating our location on Instagram weekly so let’s try and ride
great vid,, quick question.. i bought 500watt inveter for my truck and it wasnt enough power for my shimano Ec-6000 charger for my 504wh battery.. it literally shut down after 3 seconds...lol so just heads up.. not sure how ur doin ur levo with that 500watter?!?!
I really don’t know mate but it works
@@SamsBikes lol
Just a matter of procedural strategy, I love the idea of getting a beer or lunch or both but I would not wait until half way through your eating to pop the question. If the employee is scared to think on there own and the boss is out, or for whatever reason they cannot allow you to charge your battery, but you've already ordered food and drinks, you'll be looking at your mate thinking you should have tried the spot across the street. I would get the beer for sure and look over menu's and when they ask what you'll have, then say yes I've decided, another beer and before I order i need to charge my battery or I'll hoofing it back home in a full stomach. More than likely before you can finish asking they'll tell you to hand it to them or point you to a spot under the TV. If you unplug the jukebox you are going to wish you had not been born! Don't touch the jukebox, rock the jukebox!
What kind of RV Van Is That im looking to buy and RV just undecided on the design type can anyone please help
I’m rocking the Sunlight V60 it’s a beast
Ah so that's where my ski goggles went.
Why not get a generator that rolls along with your tire and get completely free energy
Just buy more battery packs saves waiting for changing lol bit pointless charging using mains better using 12 or 24v cus of boost to 240 or 110v
Why you need an inverter to charge a DC battery from a DC PV array? Kind of interesting you lose so much power converting to AC. You know anything about electricity? you do PV Direct bike battery
Thanks for the message no I know nothing about electricity ⚡️ but my ebikes have 240 chargers 🔌 and the chargers are not universal so how can I make a 12volt shimano, bosch brose charger?
