Introduction
E-bikes have become increasingly popular in recent years. According to Juiced Bikes, “worldwide, over 300 million pedal-assist bikes will exist on roads and sidewalks by 2023 — a jump of over 50% from 2019.” E-bikes are used for several reasons including commuting, moderate exercise, short and mid-distance travel & tax subsidies.
E-Bikes = Eco, Connected Devices
E-bikes do consume energy, but in comparison to other vehicles such as mopeds, motorbikes, or a car, the amount of energy is minimal. This makes e-bikes a much ‘eco-friendlier’ mode of transport. Using an e-bike can prevent an estimated 500 pounds of carbon emissions per year from being released into the environment. E-bikes operate on battery power which can be recycled at the end of their life. Additionally, e-bikes increase the range cyclers can travel which reduces the reliance on cars more than traditional bikes.
Connectivity is reaching new heights in the world of electronics. As a result, e-bikes are helping to lead the way in modern mobility. Emerging megatrends including urbanization, digitalization, and sustainability, are changing the ways in which we travel. Increasingly, cities are adapting their infrastructure to adhere to cyclists and new rural routes are being developed. E-bikes are now a part of the Internet of Things (IoT) with their intelligent IoT solutions. E-bikes can be connected to your smart devices, enabling better security and apps can connect you to new users where you can share information e.g., maps, tips, recommendations, etc. E-bikes can also provide entertainment through music control, fitness tracking, or the ability to make phone calls.
NetBit E-Bike Charger
When you charge an e-bike, electricity is drawn from the power grid, usually charging overnight. Moreover, off-peak charging has environmental benefits as less strain has been put on the power grid.
Our e-bike charger uses a custom industrial design. We optimize our charger designs to be compact and highly efficient. The charger uses a lithium-based battery for the best capacity/weight ratio and makes the vehicle zero emissions. A common choice is 10 batteries in series with 36V rated voltage and 42V max voltage. Depleted batteries can be fully charged within 1-3 hours.
