Power Supply For Lights From BionX Battery

This would be an easy project with help from Ken Finch.

There is a 4 pronged socket on the side of the BionX battery case where the charger plugs in. A matching 4 pronged plug with wires attached, would allow the 36 Volt, BionX battery to be a power supply to run LED lights for headlight, tail light and even turn/brake lights on an e-bike.

An inline fuse would be nice for protection, and I imagine resistors are required to drop the voltage down.


Hehehe..........

A 24 volt CN diesel horn would be nice too, to get back at some of the ignorant drivers here in town.


Sorry, It's late and that giant order of Newfie fries I ate for dinner is coming back to haunt me. (gurgle, squeak)


Newfie Fries?

A huge order of french fries buried in a mixture of gravy, green peas, fried onions and chunks of bread with stuffing spices. (Yummy)

Perhaps I should wear my full face helmet back to bed for protection against an attack of the Newfie fries. Then I won't suffer concussion when my head slams into the headboard during my sleep. (Yikes!)

Well a 36V LED light would be not too hard to make from the same LED bulb from Walmart I used. But what are you going to use fr an enclosure with a reflector and how are you going to mount it. Also since 36V is a more common E-Bike voltage from the past, there already is quite a few established venders on the web with reasonable priced 36V bicycle lights already made for plug and ride ease of use.
