Thanks for the video. This adapter looks very promising for longer journeys, as you said. I'm sure, like me, many of your followers would be interested in seeing a video about the adjustable output charger.
Amazing video, this is exactly what i was looking for. There is no metadata for zero bikes like the fx, fxs/fxe. If I could tell you how long I've been looking for this... such a great compact video. Even answered my question about just charging my phone with the hairdryer bit. Wish you added a donation button, first time I've gone to look for it.
One of the recent Australian cable owners here. Just wanted to say thanks and the cable it works perfectly on my 2020 TC max. As I have a permanent leg injury I find it difficult to reverse my bike. I was hoping you would know which wires were for reverse on the controller? Thanks again and great job with the channel.
Thanks for buying a cable. pleased to hear it reached you safely. I've got a wiring diagram somewhere for the controller. Other features are not wired like the regen though. So you'd have to add a pin to the connector. Which isn't easy as the whole plug is covered in glue. You may well damage the wiring just accessing the back of the plug.
@@thecapacitator8137 Thanks. If you ever find the diagram I would love to know. Can try soldering a pin to the connector. Or maybe just solder directly to the board. A whole video on the controller would be very interesting.
@thecapacitator8137 So in theory this should work with any type 2 charging station irrespective of the kw output, as you'll only be drawing the amount required for your specific charger. For example you could plug into a 54kw port but only pull 500 watts or whatever your charger requires. Ive just purchased a lexmoto cypher which comes with a 3 pin charger so hoping to extend the range using the adapter
@@thecapacitator8137 I've also been reading that because bikes like the super socco and the cypher draw very little amount to charge. It cost practically nothing to charge. Great othe videos on the TC max by the way 👌
Awesome. I bought one to recharge my power bank. What is that thing about locking pin - can charging station lock the adapter inside making it unable to unplug?
A simple and very sensible idea to support longer range riding. Assuming this will work with any Super Soco bike, do you know if this impacts on warranty? Just curious to know if there is a response/reaction from Vmoto/Super Soco..?
Thanks for the video, so can you use this adapter with any Type 2 public charging station, with different number of kW? as you mention it can do upto 3kw does that mean a public charge station has to be upto 3kw also? some chargers here in Aus are upto 22kw ..
Hi mate, great vid. I’m very much a noobie with ev charging and just trying to work out how to use them using this handy adapter, I’ve got a 22 plate super soco max and trying to figure out what ev chargers I can use - got an app to show location of chargers but not sure which I can use. Do you know what options I should select on the App from this list? DC - Tesla CCS combo, Tesla type 2, Chademo. AC - Type 2 mennekes, Type 1 tatami, Tesla type 2 commando. Would be eternally grateful for your help.
Love your videos, i just got a TC Max in October to use on my commute in the upcoming months and have been fretting over what I'll do for charging if I don't make it both ways. Could you comment on whether it's possible to secure the stock charger onto the bike in a safe way, like on top of or under the pillion? If i can keep a bag off my back I'd prefer it.
The output charger to travel light is a good idea, could you please make a video about it? I am considering the use two batteries in series to get 120V instead of 60V, to raise the top speed with a good Kelly or Fardriver controller. Any idea what would be the best solution to connect to public Type 2 sockets, what kind of charger would be best? Great video, as always.
Hello mate. Thinking about doing the same with my ebike, ill prob use the tesco pod points too but be nice to use others. Any thoughts on getting the variant with the two switches on to top from the supplier you linked to? Have you ever been unable intiate start? Or had trouble removing after charging? (Though the latter can be mitigated by filing out the i believe) Oh and what charger is that you are using :) thanks
Thank you for the video, I'm a TC-max beginner, I limited my riding range to 50 miles, and I have no idea how to charge via public station. Your video inspired me to modify my TC max. May I ask if purchasing this adaptor plus the 84v 12A fast charger, and then plug into the public charge station can solve my range problem? Thank you very much.
@@thecapacitator8137 Thank you for your prompt reply, the original battery is 72v 45A, should I need to upgrade the battery to fulfil the 84v 12A fast charger to plug into the public charge station as well?
Is it legal to use such adapters? No risk of fire / something going bad? Do owners of ev charging stations allow such inventions? Asking cause this would be a great thing for me but i dont want to risk 😁
How did you disconnected the adapter from the pod point (because there is no stop button on charger and in the app) ? I was thinking about getting that adapter for charging my EUC, but I was concerned about the lack of “off switch” on it.
Hi, so can I use any Ebike charger with just the adapter? and do you have a different style one on Amazon or something like that with quicker delivery.
I've just bought a adapter from ebay and it has cut in locking notches but i noticed your one doesn't and in the video on your made up cable you cut the locking notches out. Do I need to do this on my adapter to stop it being locked in as it doesn't have a kill switch
@@StefNistorXS There's usually a sticker on the unit. It's under the left hand side panel from memory. I don't think it's a qr code though. It just picks up the imei number.

Thanks, I'll give it a bit longer on test so I know it's definitely reliable. Appreciate your support 🙂
Yes plz, would like to know more about your charger. Make a review. ❤

Yes that's right. It's exactly the same as plugging in at home. You can boil a kettle or charge a phone from the same socket.

Great othe videos on the TC max by the way 👌
Thanks. Clearest explanation out there. Thought a new product was available after your previous explanation. What about the adjustable output charger?
Thanks, I'll do a review of the charger as soon as possible. I'm working on something else for the TC Max at the moment.
Awesome. I bought one to recharge my power bank.
What is that thing about locking pin - can charging station lock the adapter inside making it unable to unplug?
Thank you for all your tips . Just a small comment to help the algorithm 😊
Thanks Rod, appreciate it. 🙂
Please do a video on charger

Yes any type 2 charger. If you look closely in the video it's a 7kw charger. That's just the limit.
But what about if the charger says from 7 to 22 kW?
great video just what I have been looking for, but will this set be ok for an outdoor charger as the one you used in the video is under cover
doh just seen you used at Tesco outdoors, but have you left it to charge in bad weather?

There isn't much space on the TC Max. You could get a bungee net and see if you can secure it to the seat behind you. I prefer to use a backpack.
Would I need a special charging cable or could I use the default charger with one of these adaptors and it would charge safely?
It should work with any charger or even a hairdryer!

@@leohclau The battery is intended to be charged at 10 amps. You may get away with 12 though. Try it and see if it works.

The adapter doesn't lock into the charger. You can just unplug it.
The new version of the product linked on aliexpress has two buttons to stop power.

If it has the notches it could get locked in.
@@thecapacitator8137 if it doesn't the charging process cannot start on non-tethered stations. How do you get around this problem?
@@thegrave2000 I haven't come across that problem. It's always worked on every public charger I've tried.
Any luck with Vmoto app not working in the UK? Really miss being able to see how much charge is left on my bike.
Did you pay to keep it running?
The new app is actually quite good.
Any idea where is that qr code to scan for the bike to be connected on the app?
@@StefNistorXS There should be a sticker on the unit. From memory I think it's under the left hand side panel.
@@StefNistorXS I don't think it's a QR code. It just picks up the imei number
