    If you get the Hyperscrambler 2 you want the extra battery. Not that one battery is bad or anything, but with two you'll almost never have range anxiety. That is a wonderful thing. Peace of mind is worth the extra cash. Happy riding!!!

    Great video! Is there are recommendation you have on how to keep the battery dry if I were to get caught in the rain? I understand the battery is water resistant but not water proof. Does this mean I could ride in heavy rain, but not swim with it per se? ;)

    I have a 48 v / 20 a.h lithium ion battery 48 x 20 is 960 amp hours. I then decided to also use the calculator to divide 960 by my Max speeds I've been getting out of the 1500 w motor which is 34 mph top speed and it came out with this figure 28.2 and a long line of digits after the decimal point my question is douse the 28.2 qual the approximate range in miles that I can travel on a full charge before the battery gets to a risky low capacity such as 10 or 25 percent capacity of charge remaining ??? Or am I wrong to divide 960 by my top speed in mph to try to find my mileage range from full charge to low charge for one outing and from one full charge which would mean 28 is not my maximum range before needing to recharge from a full single charge.... ???

    Are there any plans for developing a charger to use with a 12vdc source? I have an RV with a large solar system and don't want the conversion loss going through the inverter and then through an AC to DC charger.

    I have a juiced rip racer with a 52v 15.6ah battery. It came with a 2amp charger. I have a 3amp charger from a previous ebike that had a 48v system. Can I use that charger on my juiced bike battery.

    • @juicedbikes
      @juicedbikes  Před 11 měsíci

      Hey 👋 Great question! Never use a different brand of e-bike charger. The 2amp, 4amp or 8amp chargers we sell on our site have been tested for safe use with Juiced Bikes battery packs. Using an outside charger on a different voltage platform can risk damage to your e-bike battery or the charger,

    What would be the advice on storage the battery during off use months

    • @juicedbikes
      @juicedbikes  Před rokem

      Hey 👋 Store at about 50% charge and if your in storage long term charge a bit every month. Check out our winter storage and maintenance video for more info.

      Hey 👋 All of our current e-bikes are on a 52V battery platform. No need to upgrade, plenty of power.

    With the pedaling of these bikes, Is that also helping to charge the battery while riding?

    • @juicedbikes
      @juicedbikes  Před 8 měsíci

      Hey 👋 Great question! It doesn't charge your e-bike while pedaling or through regenerative braking, while these features sound attractive, regenerative braking doesn't give enough of a bump in range to outweigh the extreme cost they add to produce.

    After surviving my 4/22/23 neck breaking crash caused by a forgotten kickstand, I've noticed my battery only charges to 3 bars... Is this from battery damage and is this battery a possible fire hazard in your opinion?
    If so, any possible solution suggestions?

      @juicedbikes  Před 4 měsíci +1

    I just bought the CrossCurrentX about 3 weeks ago and my user manual reads "It is highly recommended you charge the battery pack after every ride, even if the batter pack is only lightly used... the battery can achieve 500-700 full charge cycles. As the battery pack receives more charge cycle, the capacity will decrease. Charging a partially discharged battery pack is not considered a full charge cycle"
    This video seems to contradict the manual. I have been charging my battery after every ride even if its just a couple miles. Have I actually tore through a significant number of my recharges already?

    • @juicedbikes
      @juicedbikes  Před rokem +1

      Hey 👋 Charging between rides is a great idea and doesn’t count as a full charge cycle if partially discharged. We just recommend waiting 30 minutes after riding to charge your battery.

  • @emilkermendy4595
    @emilkermendy4595 Před 7 měsíci

    There are also some energy math behind battery charging. 2 A * 52 V = 104 W, is you want to put 520 Wh into your Bat. you will need 5+ h , lets say 6 h to account for heating of battery.....

    Should I leave the bike and battery in my garage where it gets very cold in the winter?

    • @juicedbikes
      @juicedbikes  Před 8 měsíci

      Yes, if you are storing your e-bike for winter it is best stored in a cool dry area. Depending on your garage temp you may even choose to store your battery in house. Check out our Winter E-Bike Tips Here bit.ly/3tmILjL

      Hey 👋 This depends on what voltage your battery arrives at. We have a chart on the site that illustrates battery percentage in volts. Your battery voltage is in the upper right corner of your LCD display. Ideally you want to stay within 80% - 20% voltage.

    One BIG important battery question was not mentioned in this video. The answer is elusive to say the least on CZcams and with bike manufacturers. The million dollar question is: do you plug your charger into the wall outlet first, or the battery first when charging. I see a 50/50 split on responses.

    • @juicedbikes
      @juicedbikes  Před 6 měsíci

      Hey 👋 Great question! Actually we have addressed this at :44 of our Electric Bike Battery Health video. We recommend connecting your charger to your battery first and then to power. czcams.com/video/uvlMAkZVjI4/video.htmlsi=y1ohBSKU4Bzs4aPc

      @juicedbikes  Před rokem

      Hey 👋 Yes!
      Every Juiced e-bike equipped with a G2 52-Volt battery adheres to UL 2271 requirements for battery safety. We are currently in the process of receiving formal UL Certification for these battery packs, which we expect to be completed this Month .

    I never got charging the battery to only 80%. sure, it might last 20% longer but realistically you are only delaying the inevitable once you put those 3000 miles on it.
    to me it's kind of like an oxymoron. either way the same number of miles will still weaken the battery, you're only taking longer and using only 80% of the ev

    Just buy a donkey 🫏 it cost $30 dollars and it will live for 15 years, but you keep it in the house it might live for 25 years, if you let it sleep in your bed 🛌 it will live for 30 years, if you spoon 🥄 it while sleeping it will live for 60 years.
    Trust me the donkey 🫏 doesn’t need batteries 🔋.
