Not sure if this mirror has been suggested yet but I have this on my RW4 and it works quite well thus far. I mounted it between my left grip and the bike controller making sure not to let the bolt touch the bell (which would make it inoperable).
When I have more time I will read through all 4 pages and study the list a bit more,.

Thanks for putting this list together @Ryan  8)

I'll take them!

Heya, I got an email about 45 minutes before you posted here.
I am not sure if that was from you but if not, you are next in line for the tubes if that deal falls through.

TIA!

So I just upgraded my RW4 with a set of Tannus Armor inserts and since they use a smaller inner tube, I no longer need these factory tubes. They have 113 miles on them and still hold air without issue.

No charge for the tubes, you cover shipping. Pretty certain I can get them both in a small flat rate box. Or if you are located in Portland Oregon area (or the north coast) we can meet up.

Cheers!

This is my latest version. The box has two power connectors for the charger; one for full and one for partial charge. The project box that I used is a but small and required modifying the meter case a bit to fit. The meter measures power in, so you can estimate how much power was consumed by the battery.

Thanks so much! I really appreciate you sharing your project. Adding those Digi-Key p/n's was great! I will design a 3d printable enclosure for my unit and share the deign here when completed.

Stay RAD!

I found that 4 diodes gets closer to 80%. Also, the diodes got hotter than expected, so I upgraded to 6A diodes with heatsinks.
NTE5852 and NTE5253.

Any chance you have an updated parts list? I recently bought a Radwagon 4 and extending the battery life sounds ideal considering the cost of these batteries. I wouldn't mind putting together a unit with the display and I probably have a good portion of the parts already.
TIA!
