You should post that classic German forklift safety video. Do you know which one I am talking about?

Nobody here understands my sense of humor but that doesn't mean I'm gonna stop. WRT protection:

I cannot say for sure; we will have to wait for analysis of failed components. What I did say is that I have seen the bike take repeated abuse in testing. Complete overjumps of tabletops on purpose with the bike landing on completely flat ground. They had to put extra strong wheels on the bike...

It takes time and testing to get it right. They will come through with what they promised (and more).

Some neat stuff is coming software-wise.

Stark said the bike is going back to Spain for analysis so hopefully they will be able to determine what happened. I have seen it take repeated hard hits in testing so I think it is probably not a design issue but we will see what the analysis points to.

Ohhhh, now I see from the photos. That 8.2A cannot possibly be measured AC current. The charger does not send AC line voltage or current to CAN bus. Therefore, the bike/phone has no way of knowing if the charger is plugged into 110V or 220V or even what the AC current is. The 8.5A to 8.2A is...

I wasn't involved with homologation. I don't think there is an engine number stamped anywhere on the motor/inverter assembly, but I could be wrong.

The max 10 amps on the phone is battery current, not AC current going into the charger. Below 330V (battery) the charger can deliver 10A. Above 330V the current will be less than 10A because 3.3kW is the limit. The max current on the app was just a quick way to not overload the generator. Does...

The plug is the only difference

I don't know if an enduro kit for the Varg is planned. From an electrical perspective there is not an issue. What I am not sure about is the mechanical perspective -- the physical mount points for the lights and other hardware, what needs to be done with the plastics, etc.

A sur-ron horn is a small horn (about 100 to 105dB) that draws 1.5A at 12V. You could jerry rig a horn onto a Varg or Alta. The question is if you want a horn enough to jerry rig it.

How close to the handlebar grip did you mount your power/map button assembly? If there is enough space a horn button might fit there nicely. Then, as stated before, a sur-ron horn could work.

Here is a horn on an Alta. Seems OK?

Thank you. FYI, production is proceeding; there is no production stop. In the case of Marley I doubt that is an inverter issue. ECR was an inverter issue (looks to be IOC circuit but can't be sure until we inspect it). With Marley it looks like the bike is simply failing to turn back on after...

Thanks. Like I said, I agree on the transparency, but I am engineering and have no influence on that. Ramp up is proceeding. If I posted the numbers I would get chewed out so I won't. What I can say is that I am not disappointed with how things are going. That is as much as I can say. I hope it...

I clearly stated I am the most senior electronics guy. Go back and check if you like. As for being the spokesperson, I remember you complaining about the battery not being hot swappable. I told you the reasons for that and said if it bothered you to not buy the Varg. To get something like a...

I am NOT a stark spokesperson. I never posted any delivery date estimates or production ramp up estimates. I am not that stupid. If you have technical questions I am happy to respond to the extent I can.
