battery warmer emax 110s £15.99

Here is a idea for keeping your batteries warm on thoes cold winters nights.
The parts you neet is an washable elec blanket (I used a silent night one from argos £14.99).
A roll of waterprof ducktape and some sticky velcro strips.

Step one fold the electrick blanket into therds lenthways so it makes a strip 110cm by 30cm
Step two cover in tape to make it water tight
Step three add velcro strips to the cover then place under bike were the battery tray is and attach the velcro sticky bits (three strips 25cm long shortways does the job evenly spaced)
Step fore put plug were your feet go and run an extension to a power supply (plug with a ground lekage trip on)and place cover over bike job donePICT0119.JPG I have used this one for 3 weeks now with out any problems (just keep the plugs and control dry under a standard bike cover).Last week it was -3 for 2 nights but the heater keept the pack at +6. not bad for 15mins work and £15.00 and the performance was a lot better due to this. Have fun!!!!!!

MORE EMAX PROBS LOL

Does any one know of a good london emax dealer or where i can get hold of a emax 110s motor wire. For some reason the insulation has become brittle and has split.
Or should i just make my own using armerd 415v cable and a seperate cable for the hall sensor.
Allso has anyone had the same problem as me and does anyone have any pic's on how to pull the motor apart and what conections are needed.
Or could i get away with joing the wires under the swing arm wire cover using my trusty gas soldering iron and some heat srink pipe. any help would be aprecated cheers

Sounds like a shopping list doesent it LOL

who can help new emax problems

can anyone shed any light on a few probs im having

the first one is the brake light stays on all the time. I made a few mods to solve this problem just for my own sanity but im only getting round the problem by running the brake swiches past all the electronics.im using them to brake the circut from the dc to dc converter to the light it seems to work ok i guess. back to the question what went wrong originaly it isent a wire problem so it must be a gray box prob can anyone shed any light

The second prob is that the amp guage does't work and like before all wires and swiches are ok. iv had the thing in bits and found nouthing and the readings on my dmm are just plain weard can anyone help cheers
