  • Do I stay 48v or move up to 52v?

    I have my newest bike Amyet V9-G60. My goal was buy the cheapest moped style bike and upgrade key components. It needs new brakes, front fork, rear shock and battery. The battery is 48v 20ah. My problem with the battery is charge port and Discharge port. Charge port is dc barrel. And the discharge port…

  • I need to post more here then facebook or Twitter (X)

    Haven’t posted here in over a year. Have to fix that. Since my last post a matter of things happen to me and I fell behind on a lot of things. I did do some updates to my computer as I was out of commission at work and funds was low. I upgraded 1 Hard…

  • Computer Upgrade Time

    My Network needs a upgrade. And I need a new gaming computer. My main computer is now 6 years old. So I need a new Motherboard, CPU, RAM and GPU. I probably can get away with the storage that I have and power supply. My Budget is $1,500 but can be brought down if supply…

  • A few changes

    I went ahead and got a few things change on my bikes. Al Comp now has a new tire in the front called Sunlite Revolutions if that is the name of the tire. They are 26 x 2.5 tires. A new rim is on the way as well. Glenwood had its controller mounted on the…

  • New Year (2023) Still Broke.

    Schwalbe Big Apple (28×2.15) tires are fast. I normally be just about 28 mph but now I am reaching upwards of 35 mph. This is a 1200w 30a motor kit from ebikeling with a 52v 13ah 30a Battery. I wonder if I can go faster with a 40a bms. I am looking into a few…

  • This is boring

    This has become boring to me to post something here. This site will die. My Plex server will die. My home network will die. I will continue to live on outside on my ebike.

  • Understanding “my” bike range.

    I’m trying to understand how to justify getting a larger aH battery for my bike and future bike. I read over “google search results” That If I calculate 52v x 13ah = 676wh divide by 1000w gives me 0.676. Then times that by how fast I want to go. Say 30 mph. 0.676 x 30…

  • I’m not Dead

    It’s been a hectic year. Just a random post to say I’m still here. One of many, I wanted to update the need for Dubs for the Anime in my collection. Dubs are now being done 1 or up to 3 weeks after the Japanese (1hr for subs) release. So, to avoid spoilers because the…

  • Computer upgrade schedule

    I want to start on a annually schedule where I will upgrade 1 machine on my network. Current the oldest machine I have is my nvr system. It currently has an i3-3220, 8gbs of DDR3 ram, 120gb SSD boot, and 4TB Western Digital Purple hard drive. Granted the newest parts are the ssd and harddrive…

  • Some Network stuff

    In the coming days I will be working on my network infrastructure. Apparently, my main router (Netgear Nighthawk R8500-100NAS) is EoL. So with that I’m going to move the routing features over to a new system which will make this unit an access point until I can get Wifi 6 running in the future. I…

Got any book recommendations?
