A new chat has been created:
I have been working "behind the scenes" for quite a while on my eLecTricks=
trike. It was put on hold due to testing a few things on my Warrior so tha=
t they would be ready for when the time came, sort of making progress witho=
ut it being visible. However, I am now back into working on eLecTricks.
eLecTricks things that are now installed on the Warrior for testing:
Arduino-controlled lighting. Working well but a few convenience modificati=
ons for the future.
Installation of a 10.1" tablet for navigation, speed display, whatever tab= lets can do. Just great.
12V battery and main trike battery monitoring. Can now see what is happeni=
ng.
Completely replaced the mid-drive with the Hilgo transmission from eLecTri=
cks - modified. I have another implementation for eLecTricks to make instal= lation even easier. I have used it for about 30km and it works great.
A 10W solar panel for topping up the 12V battery.
5V USB power supplies. Some modifications required for the future.
A transporting system has been fitted to my 6x4 trailer to make loading/un= loading very easy. Easily modified for carrying two trikes.
Testing these items on the Warrior has been very revealing and I have deci=
ded to "reinvent" eLecTricks to make the end result even better. The MTB re=
ar end is being replaced with a new rear end, designed to accommodate the H= ilgo transmission and other components. As it stands at the moment, the rea=
r dropouts and chainstays have been made, the transmission and rear suspens= ion pivot have been designed, the front suspension is where I left off. The=
next step, today, is to get a couple of spacers made so that I can get the=
combined rear suspension pivot and mid-drive completed.
I will use this chat for updates on the build. It has been a long time com=
ing but should now move forward reasonably quickly by comparison. Feel free=
to comment as you see fit. I might create a special photo album for the bu= ild. You can also follow construction on the Atomic Zombie site at: https:/= /www.atomiczombie.com/forum/threads/vk3ckcs-electricks-trike-design-and-bui= ld.21/page-4#post-3879. (
