• Sell battery

    Is anybody going to want a 6 year old BTR1, however lightly used?

    buy new one in 2-3 years?

    As a corollary to the above, will I still be able to buy an external battery in 2026? I just want the bike rideable for a year as is, then he can make his own decision about rewiring for an internal battery without dragging me into the project šŸ™‚

  • If rewiring for internal is on the table, then changing the cells to brand new ones shouldnt be an issue either :)

    On a serious note, if I had to deal with this, Iā€™d probably setup reminders to put it on charge periodically, and not let it fully discharge. Or buy one of those wifi programmable plugs, write code for it to automatically switch on for 2 hours every 3 months and plug it in behind your telly and not look at it for the next 3 years. Might be overkill :D
