Well done.

Have a question. Did you inquire about the price of the supplier's charger as a matter of interest?
Secondly, I am wondering if a 45 minute ride would be enough to charge the battery fully. With it's larger capacity is may not. Then again I know nothing about Lithium batteries and their needs. I am sure Alantf can add some info when he shows up later.
You do pretty well for a NOT a Mechanic and a Videographer.


Should be a "How To" for the uninformed to show how simple a battery R/R is. A big+ for adding the tools required.

Sorry, but I retired before lithium batteries were designed, so, unfortunately, I don't know anyting about them.

For purposes of making sure it has enough charge..... 45++ minute ride is enough.... Does that get you 100% not really. But enough to keep you going. I went for a 4 hour ride yesterday after installing the battery but that is typical for me to do....

Thanks for the compliments. Their charger is aprox $85
