Hi I am a compleate computer moron, and lack confidence in the use of my hands and mind ever sense I suffered a coma in 2016... but watching your very step by step instructions on everything I've needed to work on like adjusting breaks, in installed front shocks, seat, with a shock in the post, even changing a rear tire tube... BUT YOUR VIDEOS MADE IT EASY even though I usually screwed up once or twice you are there to remind me of the steps.. Now here's what I asked you wrote you about I bought a Jetson boat Pro refurbished that has some issues with it Judson elected to send me my money back and I interned bought another refurbished bike and here's the wonderful part they don't want the old bike back! So now I have spare tires with the rims and motor hub spare chains for sprockets basically spare everything except for the few parts that went screw you on the bike which were nearly just a great coils and accelerator switch. now what I want to do when I get my new bike I want to put the battery for my existing bike on the back rack and I'd like to know if you can kind of send me a video on how to do that I know there's any connections nessary for a set up ,,,for instance, I ride until my main batter is on 1 dot power, turn off bike, connect power and controller to external batter and I off for more. You have a easy going mannerism that make it easy to learn, and learning removes fear Chuck Cherrito

shiva i just wanted to thank you again. I got my second battery hooked up extremely easily thanks to you and now i can deliver door dash for multiple hours! i still havent installed the switch yet because I'm nervous about the soldering but I'm sure I'll be fine with your great tutorials. keep up the great videos man!

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hi Kyle, thank you very much for your feedback and kind words. I am glad the second battery worked out well for you.

What's the total range now ?

[@kdot3391]

@@yasirsaeed2958 i get about 45 miles now. i got my battery from amazon. i bought the 10ah but i believe they have a 14ah also that would get you even more range.

[@shadowmann9]

I did this mod! So, I have replaced the inside battery with the eBay battery (10000mAh), plus I bought a second identical battery for the extended range. I finished the wires coming out of the frame case with a flexible wire cover, and I put the second battery inside my rack bag. Looks very clean! I chose not to use a switch because I can make the connections easily inside the rack bag, and I have the option of not using it or using an even bigger 36v 14000mAh battery inside the bag. THANK YOU for this video!

Awesome!! I am very happy to hear that. Thanks for sharing.

[@saramcbeen8928]

I’m wondering if the new battery mods have increased your speed at all? Thank you for these videos and the comments!

[@tony-nz8qp]

this is a great video. and adding the extra battery or even replacing the existing one with your recommendation definitely increases the utility of the bike. the range was too short with the manufacturer's battery. it would be very helpful if you included in your presentation a DIAGRAMMATIC of the WIRING scheme. thanks again for this video. well done.

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hi Tony, thank you for watching my video and for your kind words. I will definitely include wiring diagrams in my future videos, I really appreciate the feedback.

[@lisajohnson5516]

I bought this for my son to ride to school. I'm thinking of removing the battery so that he can take it inside with him and keep it warm, and also so that no one else can turn it on and drain it while he's away. Thank you for all of these videos as he learns how to use it.

[@oneeyedrone4293]

might be a better idea to just add a key switch on the power rather than the on off switch it comes with. Can add it to the original case that way your son can just turn the key switch off to avoid discharge. Removing the battery would be a lot of work and more of a headache.

[@craigpage1261]

KZbin can be such a time suck, but your vids are full of great info that I will actually use. Thanks, man.

[@frankklostermann5840]

Shiva Sapkota. After all of the KZbins and guidance from you, I have finally purchased a Jetson Pro Bolt from Costco for $330 plus tax. It is still in the box, but I plan to open it up this weekend, charge the battery, and assemble. I am very much looking forward to adding all of the accessories that you recommended, and wiring in a 2nd battery on a rear rack. Thank you for all of your guidance and recommendation. We have miles and miles of paved bike paths in our area, and access to the inter-connected bike paths is within a mile of our home, and I hope to ride, partially pedal, and get some exercise.

[@DexterShawn]

@@ShivaSapkota Why not go with a higher amp battery like 36v 14AH I heard that just about all new controllers can handle 30ah and some 60ah no matter what they rated at?

[@ShivaSapkota]

@@DexterShawn It is mainly the cost vs. benefits. The 14AH was over $150 when I purchased mine. The range increase with 10AH is enough for me to get around. But, you are correct, you can technically do any AH.

[@charliewilkinson7497]

Good video, informative and clear. I just have a question, why not wire the batteries in parallel? It would take away the need to disconnect one battery for the other and you could charge them together, just curious

[@deangarrow]

I had my eye on this very project. I am going to wait until you do a thorough review of the after market battery. I am going to try and incorporate an on-off-on switch for swapping batteries. I am researching the amperage and voltage requirements of the switch to prevent arcing. When I came across this video I was amused to find that I had the exact same battery in my EBay cart as the one you used. Thank you again for these videos. I am enjoying the Bolt Pro very much. You are a large part of the reason I chose to buy one.

[@EddieH711]

Wow! You did an awesome job. It’s a good idea to house the 2nd battery on the rear rack. I could not wait until you figure out a way to make a “battery transfer switch” so it would make it even easier when the other battery runs out. Looking forward to the 2nd battery test and extended range videos. Really awesome job you did. Congratulations and thank you for making this video.

@@ShivaSapkota good luck man. Looking forward to the installation video.

[@frankklostermann5840]

@@ShivaSapkota Interesting. Please let us know how the Controller handles the 10 amp battery. I think it would be fun to use your original type of wiring, where you can switch from one battery to the other. Place one battery in the back rack, one in the bike, and one in a handlebar bag, which can be switched to the back rack. As I said interested in the controller capability experience, and how far you can travel on two batteries, i.e. throttle only and pedal assist with the standard crank. Thanks.

[@ShivaSapkota]

@@frankklostermann5840 Hi Frank, this 10AH battery should definitely give me more range as it has higher capacity. I don't think it will affect my controller given it is still a 36V battery, so no increase in power.

[@AvroBellow]

I love your videos Shiva, but if you're an engineer who specialises in electrical systems, you should know that the Ah rating of a battery only determines the capacity and/or output capability, not how much it pushes. The amount of current is 100% dependent on how much a connected device draws. It's like, you're not going to burn out a starter because you put an 800CCA battery in a car that had a 600CCA battery originally.

[@Soren27]

I just bought a bolt pro. I'm gonna do this!!!!

[@1commonsense934]

Could you explain the wires coming out of the batteries...which one is for charging..which one will read 36v..and what are the 2 sets of wires for..with close up pictures...thank you so much..love your videos..you do such a great job...maybe a wiring diagram also

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hi Stephen, I will do a better job of adding wiring diagrams in my future videos. For this one, basically the extra battery has 2 wires (one for power and the other one has a built in chargeport). The power wire is a Dean-T plug so won't directly connect with Jetson since Jetson has XT60 connection. So, you need a Dean to XT60 connector. After that, you just use some XT60 extension cords to connect everything. Thanks for watching my video, I appreciate your time.

[@DCPHONEGUY]

you can use an old cut up innertube to shim the new battery and keep it from sliding and bouncing around with the original battery clamps/straps if you wish to put it back where the original battery is/was

Hi Jordan, I am glad the second battery worked well for you. I still have that box I showed here.

Have you riden this bike on a gravel road ( a bike road basically just made of a bunch of Little Rocks) will it damage the bike also do you know how fast this bike can go going full speed on the throttle and pedaling thanks in advance great series you have here

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hello, I have ridden this bike on a gravel road for short periods but wouldn't recommend it too much. Any bike can damage faster if you constantly ride on gravel/dirt roads. You should be fine for a short period of time and make sure to clean the bike afterwards. The speed will vary based on the topography, wind and weight. You should be able to get anywhere from 11-15 miles. You can go a little bit faster if you pedal rapidly but due to the size of the crankset and speed limiter on the controller, you are really limited on how fast you can go. Thanks for watching my videos and supporting my channel.

[@erik7452]

Hi Shiva. I have watched your informative videos on the subject and read hundreds of comments and replies but could not find anything about the "charging cable from the controller". Maybe I missed this question and answer? I'm just wondering, do you know if there is any advantage to connecting the charging cable from the control box to the extra battery when switching and being able to use any charge from the motor to the battery when driving the e-scooter and braking? Regenerative energy? What small connector type is there for this cable if a connection is to be made?

[@brianmccann666]

Hey Shiva. I'm enjoying your Jetson Bolt Pro vids. Correct me if I'm wrong, Couldn't you also use a Splitter on the two batteries to pull power from both lessening the power drain on each battery ? Me i would buy another 3rd battery to replace the Jetson 6amp battery completely. Having two of the 10amp batteries sounds better. Keep the original as a backup.

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hi Brian, yes you can technically do that but I would be nervous about paralleling two batteries with different internal resistance and BMS. It might work perfectly but once battery could end up balancing the other one and cause problems in the long run. I would go with a switch instead. I agree with the 2 10AH battery idea, I might get another one in the future. Thanks for watching my video.

@@ShivaSapkota Or you could go with a 36V 14Ah battery from the same seller and it looks like it would fit directly inside the bike (better fit) as the 10AH one you show not that much more in price? www.ebay.com/itm/293213342446

I did everything exact to video! Worked great. I noticed the first cycle of the eBay batteries only lasted me 9.5 miles on mostly all electric. I assume the batteries got a break in period? Also the motor seemed to lose power after full throttling it for that time. For reference I weigh 200 lbs. I assume the motor is simply being over worked and is cutting power due to heat.

[@ShivaSapkota]

@@porschegt2346 I am glad it worked well for you. 9.5 miles seem a little low. The motor shouldn't be overworked that quickly. Were you riding on a flat surface or was it hills? The wind also affects range often time. The ebay battery gives me at least 15 miles in the summer and I weight 185 lbs.

Hey again. I bought the Jetson Bolt Pro but I haven't unboxed it yet.... I have a personal question. How much do you weigh....I need a reference to what I weigh 215. Is performance going to be really changed by your weight. If I'm getting close to the max than I probably should be looking for a different eBike but if you're not having any problems I think I'll give it a try....Thanks for great posts!

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hi Mark, I weigh 185 lbs and haven't had any performance issues with this bike. I have subscribers who weigh 230 lbs and still be able to ride without significant performance issues. The main difference is the range, higher the weight, less range you will get. Depending on where you live (topography) the speed shouldn't be too different than someone who weighs less. Thanks for watching my videos.

[@starsoldier3643]

Just for your info. If you ever get caught in the rain, you are going to get water inside the bikes battery case. They make rubber grommets with holes in the center for wires. Automotive will have them at parts stores. Drill a hole for the grommet run your wires and no worries about water.

The jetson charger works fine for this battery. Thanks Jeff!

[@michaeltedham5499]

Hey there! What switch do you use to go back and forth between the two batteries? Also, have you unlocked a higher speed? Thank you!

[@zogadwoe]

I bought this for my son for Xmas and just opened it. After watching your videos, my son and I are excited about the many upgrades options available. My concerns with electric stuff are the charging time, the range and the water proof. You showed how we can extend the range with an extra battery or simply putting a better battery so my son can ride his bike while I jog which is cool.

[@ourcolonel1685]

There's connectors at stores that sell boat supplies. These are water tight.

[@mpcarlin11]

Get 2 Milwaukee M18 batteries 6,8 or 12s. Charge time 90 minutes

[@helicopterjohns]

Not and electronics expert, but could you put a Y connector on the cable going to the speed controller and feed it with both batteries wired in parallel. Don't know if that would work and if there would be any advantage to that setup if it would work????????

[@ShivaSapkota]

Yes it would work with parallel connection. You meant like this right? kzbin.info/www/bejne/iX66g5KdpLdkqNk

[@helicopterjohns]

@@ShivaSapkota Correct!!!!

[@Giggity111]

Does it make the bike any faster?

[@MaurizzioPH]

Does it work on a kugokirinn v1 ? Nice video keep doing what u do

[@josephsegarra4999]

Hey Shiva, thanks for all the great info...can you tell me if this battery will work on the original Jetson pro? the slightly smaller one with no pedals.

Hi Kaela, thank you very much for your support.

Hello we love your videos thank you for making them. Do you know where to get a replacement hub motor for the bolt pro? Thank you

[@yikim5354]

Hey.. I just bought 3 of them. And I add seat post suspension.. it gives you better ride..

[@ShivaSapkota]

Thanks for letting me know. Did you buy 3 batteries or 3 bikes? 🙂 Which suspension post did you get?

[@yikim5354]

@@ShivaSapkota i bought 3 bikes.. and I am planning to buy 3 batteries.. I might needs u r help.. I don't have any knowledge or skill on those thing. Also don't get the fence one. I only paid little over 20bucks. It works fine. Even I weight 210 no problems..(suspension)

[@julya400]

Hello Shiva!! thanks for your informative video!! my question is: do we need the battery to ba Ha 103 like the Jetson’s one?

[@DitechGaming]

Hey man is there any way to charge this bike from a external power bank?

[@BONGOLICIOUS1]

Just bought one big fun and love your vids! Is there a way to speed charge the battery ? Besides waiting 4 hours standard wall outlet? Thanks

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hello, thanks for your kind word and support to my channel. Unfortunately, there isn't a way to charge faster. Those charges are very typical for ebikes.

[@ushren]

Cool video. I wonder, why not go for a 20AH right away? What do you think?

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hello, thanks for your feedback. I thought about it but I honestly don't need that much range so decided to save some money. Also, it is sometimes hard to trust a Chinese battery with 20AH advertised capacity :)

[@ourcolonel1685]

I had a plan to buy a second battery right from the beginning. However, a little twist. I want to have both mounted and install a switch to push power from one battery or the other. No playing around with removing a battery to exchange with another.

[@caseyhiggins3563]

For the external battery setup, do you need 2 XT-60 extension cables or just 1?

[@josephsegarra4999]

Sorry to spell your name wrong God bless you and thank you 😃

[@andywallbank3502]

Ware can i find this battery

[@elcanario1979]

Hey Chiva great video, love how you explain everything bro, by the way great channel, I am your subscriber as well , since you are upgrading the battery I see that there are more batteries that maybe would go good as well with this Jetson pro, for exemplo there is a 36 v same as the original but it was 30 ah, I guess it will be charged for longer time right? do you think the jetson pro will handle this battery (36v 30ah) please let me know what you think planning to upgrade mine with this battery but I want your advice firs, thank ya and I will appreciate any of your advices.

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hi Fernando, yes a 36V 30AH battery will be fine. As long as you pick a 36V battery, the AH doesn't matter. A 30AH battery will last you a long time and probably get over 50 miles of range. Please be careful purchasing the high capacity battery and make sure it is from a reputable seller. Sometime Ebay sellers are fake and they claim 30AH but the battery is really 10. So, read some seller reviews before buying it. Thanks my friend, I appreciate you watching my videos.

[@elcanario1979]

Great, thanks a lot bro for your advice and your quick response, god bless you my friend.

[@greg8704]

Good job showing and explaining the process. Could the two batteries be connected in parallel to eliminate swapping the plugs?

[@ShivaSapkota]

Thanks Greg. Yes, you can connect those in parallel. There are some risks though. Please check this video out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iX66g5KdpLdkqNk

[@MrTricyc]

yes that's how i did mine they have connecters for that just make sure they are they same battery

[@johndoe-id2uh]

Video on spacers to buy or diy spacers for those who are going to replace the main battery 🔋 plzzzzz :)

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hi John, I will show this in one my future videos. Just some basic plastic spacers should work but I will look into it. Thanks for watching my video.

[@johndoe-id2uh]

@@ShivaSapkota thank you , also the price went up at Costco they now cost $349

[@ShivaSapkota]

@@johndoe-id2uh Wow, I heard they increased the price recently to $329 but now $349? That sucks!! Thanks for letting me know.

[@postopia1992]

Try to use as little connections as possible. It’ll prevent excessive heat and loss of current.

[@bobkopeny8223]

Does this better battery add any speed or range if you simply replace the stock battery on the bolt?

[@danoise_007]

Hi shiva just came across your video, I just got me a new bolt pro. I spoke to jb bike parts for a upgraded controller. My question is how is tht battery CAOMM. Really appreciate your help thanks. And I hope u can make videos on the bolts

[@yasirsaeed2958]

I just got one. Can I put 2 external batteries to increase it's range ? Or that would be dangerous?!

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hello, I would recommend putting a larger single external battery instead of two. You can go 14 or 20AH battery as long as it is a 36V.

[@anio6865]

Did you go on long distances with the new battery through the summer time ? I am wondering if the deans t connector will get too hot on my cao mm 48v 20ah battery ? I heard they get too hot they dont take so much heat. But maybe that 200 amps is way high anyways. Hopefully I am correct that a 42v 20-28ah is maybe only around 8 amps?

[@ShivaSapkota]

I would assume it would be around 30A max. I don't think the Dean T will get too hot. I have definitely used this battery for long range without any issues.

[@bigendianian]

Sorry if I missed it, but people should know not to wire both batteries together in parallel. This work only if both batteries are equally charged. If not, one can easily catch fire which you don't want with such a large Lithium pack. If people do want to be able to charge and use both batteries together, they would need to buy a parallel ebike module specifically made so this is safe.

[@JonathanJiang1]

can you connect two batteries to the controller at the same time. maybe like a T cable or something instead of switching cable

[@tho215b9]

Hello, how do you store this during winter?

[@mluu510]

Can you teach us how to replace them controller and make the bike faster? I would love to do 25mph+

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hello, thanks for watching my video. I would love to make a video on replacing the controller. However, controller alone won't make this bike go very much faster. We would have to replace the crank and chain as well. I have been looking into those upgrades but haven't made a decision yet. I will for sure make a video if I decide to purchase those mods.

[@tsssgn]

Thank you so much for your information about jetson pro ebike. I bought and love it from Costco. I hope you guide how to replace chain and others .

@@tsssgn thanks for watching my video. I am always looking for ways to upgrade this bike and show my viewers how to do it. I will have many more videos on this bike and upgrades.
