E-Bike Tail Light Replacement
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 жов 2024
- The remote takes a 2032 coin battery and should last for several years before replacement. The light has an internal 18650 battery and should last several months before recharging. Also included in the tail light is an accelerometer which makes possible the alarm and brake light. Also included is a full set of instructions.
I got my own BikeSentry today. I think the horn is designed to alert even car-drivers to your presence. Though regular people on the sidewalk will probably duck for cover should you use it in close proximity to them. I think the regular old metal bell is a much better fit for alerting pedestrians.
I agree, the horn sucks. The signals and brake are cool though.
Nice light. Great upgrade over the original. Thanks for sharing.
For the mount - I used a length of scrap aluminum flat stock and made a 100 degree bend. Then using half of the seat bracket that comes with the light drilled 2 holes and used the screws again that came with it bolted the seat post mount to the flat strap. To mount to the underside of the rear bike rack I used 3 zip ties. Then I used a length of 1” black electrical tape to cover - It was raining out when I built this so I could not paint outside. Hope this helps - Good Luck .. .. 👍
Really Liked the video. Informative! Lately I’m also looking to buy an e bike to reduce my carbon footprint.
I use my truck more now to haul the e-bike around to cool places to ride.
Nice presentation. My manual says the alarm level CANNOT be changed. Can you explain how the audible sound can be reduced. It is REALLY loud. Also, you said there is tab that you can push to remove the main piece from the mounting brackets. I couldn’t see one…can you please explain in more detail what tab you are talking about and where it is? Thank you.
As to adjusting the alarm level - It’s been a couple of years since I installed and can’t really remember - Perhaps It’s not adjustable as you said in the manual it’s not. I haven’t used the alarm with mine as I never leave it unoccupied. As to release the light from its holder - There is a tab on the bottom of the holder - Push it forward while cradling the light and it pops off in your hand. Very easy to remove for recharging if one wants to - I usually don’t remove though to charge.
@@SuperDunner Okay, am I pushing the tab forward toward the front of the bike? Is that right? Thank you.
@@typhoontom Yes -Push the tab forward releasing the light.
what rack mount are you using for the light? Thank you
Is the mount easy to attach on any type of rear rack?
Having difficulty finding a proper mount.
Thank you for your video.
Very easy - I used a couple of zip ties.
Thanks for your informative video. I would rather attach my light to the rack like you’ve shown, but only have the seat post rings that came with the light. Where did you find the bracket for the rack?? Thanks!🙂
yes please show us your custom mount. also trying to connect mine to a rack
How to change the alarm sensitivity?
Also how to change the horn sound?
Thank you sir for the video
Since I am satisfied with the light I've not made any programming changes. To answer your questions though -- This is described in the booklet that comes with the light. Page 6 sections 2.3.6 --- 2.3.6.1 and .2 and .3 and .4

Thank you for your answer I found everything I needed in the booklet as you said.
Is there are na intelligent brake light?
Я себе тоже такой купил. Ну крепление его с завода ненадёжное. Когда я упал с велосипеда фонарь просто вылетел из крепления. Долго ездил и боялся чтобы он не отпал на какой-нибудь кочке. А потом просто замотал скотчем и успокоился. Хочу поставить себе ещё один такой фонарь вперёд чтобы поворотники были и впереди но не знаю будет ли оно нормально работать от одного пульта. Говорят что будет но надо посмотреть
Can it be used with a normal bicycle?
Yes it can - It comes with a 2 piece seat post clamp making it a snap to mount. Nothing else is required - Everything is included.
Could you show in detail how you stuck it in that area there? And how you keep always charged.
In the video you can see how it’s mounted - I also describe how I mounted in the video. As far as keeping charged - It has an internal 18650 rechargeable battery that only needs recharged a couple times a year. The wireless remote uses a coin battery that should last 2 to 3 years before it’s replaced.
How’s the brake light work
By pendulum.
Does it always beep when using turn signals 🤔
Yes - 2 distinct different tones as this verify’s one is activated and distinguishes which one.
If you don't want it to beep just take the 4 little screws out and take it apart and just unplug the speaker
if you unplug the speaker the horn doesnt work anymore

Can you turn of the sound of the left en right signal?
I don't believe so as the sound is also tied into the alarm.
Good day, What is the make and model of your e-bike? It seems to be the type of bike I am looking for.
It’s an ecells 1500
@@SuperDunner Thanks
Where can I buy an extra remote for this product, mine not working after 6 month
I’ve not seen a replacement remote offered. Have you tried replacing the battery ?? If all else fails - Might have to order another light assembly.
@@SuperDunner I did changed the battery, the light on the remote flash as well. Yh might need to order another one. Apart from this problem the product is really good. Thanks for your help 👍🏽
You omitted to explain how you removed the original light??
It simply unsnaps. Very simple
@@SuperDunner Ha, I always thought it was integrated into the battery case!
@@SuperDunnerIs there a tab that you push or pull? I have not found it yet…can you please elaborate? Thank you.
@@typhoontomWhich light ?? As I’ve replaced the light I just remember there was a tab to release the light from the holder. The new light has a tab on the receiver that one pushes forward and this releases the light into your hand. Very easy to remove for recharging if one wants to remove. I usually recharge with the light left in place.
Может кто подскажет, фонарь перестал работать от пульта не реагирует на него,по инструкции все делал привязку к пульту, реациии ни какой 3 месяца пользовался проблем не было ни каких 5:49
About the only suggestion I have is to replace the remote battery and evaluate.
Can you buy me one pls😢😢
That would get on my nerves that turn sound #tinnitus🙄
I’m not in a highly congested area but do ride where the traffic may be distracted - So I like the feature.
Got that same light and it got stolen in NYC ... smh
