Dropped your ebike battery? 👉 Basic disassembly & fixing of a Hailong battery case

- Did you just drop your ebike battery? I dropped mine yesterday... On to concrete for about the 5th time! I'm unfortunately clumsy when it comes to holding things. The good news is that this particular battery and case are pretty robust with the only side effect of dropping being the case falls apart!
Some of you might think after a drop like this, you have to get a professional to take it apart and fix it. Nope! You can do it yourself within 10 minutes! All you need is a screwdriver and to not short circuit anything while your battery's on the operating room table!

I'm done...all finished...looking good...Thanks to you.
Oh that's awesome!! Glad to have helped :)
Oh genie find an answer to my problem...abracadabra and poof here it is the very first video I watch and your problem is exactly my problem. Very cool 😎. Thank you for posting. Wanted to see the inside before removing any screws.
Saw some of your videos and dude we live in the same area 😂 and with your camera setup you made everything in this area look really good! Keep the videos coming and stay safe👍
That's awesome! It gets a bit gnarly in the winter but it's still bikeable! This area "is" really nice already to start with so it's not hard 😜 you stay safe too!
Thanks dude dropped my first Ebikes battery 🔋 lucky wasn't going fast my heart sunk 💔 will learn from this and make sure when sliding battery off rail set bike on its side to minimise drop risk 🤐
You get used to securely mounting & unmounting your battery but yeahhh, mistakes can still happen! Happy trails.
I dropped my E cycle battery (same like your battery) down. My heart got broken. I just want to know how many unintentional drops your battery has survived ?
Oh liiiiike 30 haha? I swear I try to be careful but... Things happen 🤣
@@BenDurham Thanks a lot.
I'm considering buying a Hailong battery from Ebay, but I've been put off by potential fires caused by bad assembly practices or shoddy wiring. This one looks to have a better build quality, do you know if they are all like this now? Is it just old ones that weren't so good?
This one's still rockin! I'd dropped it so any battery would have done this imo. But yeah! They're similar still - just slightly different mounting points.
UnitPackPower is a good place to start on AliExpress. Their stuff seems reasonably priced and they used genuine cells from what I've seen. That, or buy from LunaCycle.
unit pack power? Thats your good battery?
yikes.
You should also stress that it's easy to pinch wires (especially in the screw holes) - or worse cut into them causing a short - when you put it back together. These batteries will literally burn your house down if abused or shorted.
This one is a Luna Cycle battery pack. I had another one that was a Unit Pack Power battery. We don't have them anymore and just got new prefabbed bikes for my partner and I in Spring 2021 (Ride1Up 500 Step-Thru and Biktrix Swift Step-Thru!)
Man, i accidentally dropped my ebike battery and I'm hoping it doesn't affect it's performance..
Probably shouldn't as long as the spot welds didn't get hurt in the drop. Mine didn't have any problems and it's been a long while since this video was made (and since dropping the battery)!
