    Broken display - solution?

    I would be looking for a behind the bars variation as well.

    It’s the only way to move forward. This limbo stinks.

    EV West has a Redshift... and a ****load of Alta batteries

    If you watch the video in its entirety, and while they don't come out and say it (other than dropping hints), it's pretty obvious those pallets are all of Altas 18650 inventory. We will most likely be hearing the final chapter of the Alta story very soon.

    Battery Pack Disassembled (Frustrating Weekend)

    I have good reason to believe the R pack used Sony VTC6 cells. Not sure if both the R and A packs used the same. If the A packs used a different cell then I believe it to be the Panasonic NCR18650BD as you mentioned.

    EV West has a Redshift... and a ****load of Alta batteries

    I follow this guys YouTube videos, he does a ton of videos on DIY powerwalls and various EV tech which is interesting. He also does some work together with EV West who sells various EV products and also does EV conversions to ICE vehicles. In one of his latest videos I caught a glimpse of a...

    Which one should I get? Got it!

    On paper no. There were some manufacturing process QC problems with some 2018 MXR's batteries so the safe(r) bet is with a 2019 or a 2018 that already had a battery replacement under warranty. That doesn't mean all 2018's will have battery problems however.

    Broken display - solution?

    My remark was two sided... mainly due to the fact that my light is on constant from my battery fault and glaring me in the face. Interesting choice on the icon for sure. As you said, probably not made specifically for Alta.

    Broken display - solution?

    I think it's likely you will get a few orders for those. Cheap insurance against what is looking to be a common crash casualty.

    Charger lights?

    Just leave it on until the bike shuts off completely.

    Broken display - solution?

    Just thinking out loud but maybe you could think about a variation to put it behind the bars for those who don't plan on a stabilizer? Would also be attractive to those who prefer a crossbar style bar on an MX bike. Making these displays less vulnerable now is definitely priority since we...

    New speedometer display screen

    As far as we know on this forum there are none available. We are currently working on options but it’s unknown when we will have a solution. There are currently multiple owners that need displays.

    Now for something completely different... (Alta Snowbike)

    Awesome! I imagined that one of these would be awesome as a snowbike. I think I already have a good idea of the answer, but how long did you get out of a charge?

    Broken display - solution?

    @Philip has these and he says the display just about fits right in between.

    I’ve been told there would be some confirming data in the diagnostics. I don’t know exactly what the diagnostics will show, but I’d like to be 100% sure before I tear in. If it were completely inoperable and I was wanting to use it I would just go for it. Additionally I believe the laptop...

    I agree, hacking firmware isn't necessary aside from the whole legality issue. Repairing these bikes falls into the motor vehicle owners right to repair act and we NEED to be able to do at least that. Before I tear this battery apart I need to first verify the problem, which requires that...
