- How to take apart an Ebike battery, replace, and re-key them if you have multiple batteries, and want to use one key. I also picked the lock for fun, in case you lost your key.

Good video ....Obviously your experienced.....More information than I was expecting...... I got 2X batteries w/o keys to try and do .....
Always something interesting to watch and learn from. Always looking forward to another interesting and informative video. I learn a lot from watching this dude with his great mechanical background. 🍍👍
Thats a cool video. I had no idea such a project could exist
Thanks. I threw it out there for fun.
Did you check inside for a BMS? The dangerous part is when you are charging them. Make sure you let it sit awhile after use before charging. Those look like 21700 size cells. Charge that thing outside to be safe.
These dolphin cases hold 18650 cells. They have a BMS. I also bought a 40mm ammo can to house them.
Thanks for this. This is the exact thing I’m trying to do.
Thank you for your best video clip! :)
Based on your lock picking knowledge, is there a Lishi 2-1 tool that would work on that lock?
I have never used one of those. As simple as this lock is, you could probably rake it.
No YT video found for : What if the key is lost and key lock barrel component is housed separately such that when the top cover four screws are removed, the key lock barrel component is residing in a separate compartment housed in plastic cover adjacent to the main plastic casing? And battery is slided into the battery holder bracket of the ebike?
You sure there is not a hidden screw, or retainer clips of somekind? I doubt they moulded the lock body around plastic. If I was looking at it, I bet I could take it apart.
@@RustBeltAuto Yes, you are right. Just that when the top cover with 4 screws are removed, this cover does not reveal said lock barrel. I think the lithium block need to be pulled out and then the inner wall beside the barrel should have a screw or two holding said lock in place. I need to see if said lithium block can be pulled up as the battery is inserted into ebike battery slot
What wafers do these use? I can't find anything about the wafers anywhere.
did you find out what size wafers these batteries Use???? I have been buying cheap battery replacement locks that come with 2 keys from Aliexpress about $2-$3 each and using the wafers and keys to rekey in-frame ebike battery locks as it is cheaper than even getting a second key cut. They seem to ALL use the same size wafers but I can't find the size either.
@rjpages6078 No I haven't had any luck. I'm about to order just a bunch of different sizes and see if I get lucky.
Does the key turn on the battery? I'm not familiar with e bikes
This key fob is to take battery off the bike
Drilling? If replacing
@@niacal4nia no need
Any idea where I could buy the wafers? I lost some of the wafers lol
A locksmith? Wafer rekey kit on ebay? Look harder? Leave a few slots empty?
Hello. Will there be a problem if I solder the cables coming from the battery directly to each other instead of connecting them to a lock?
I have not delt with one, and do not know if that switch is normally open, or normally closed. Might want to test that with a continuity tester, or ask someone else to make sure. Maybe ask on r/ebike.
@@RustBeltAuto thank you 🙏🙏
Hi rust belt auto & everyone. I lost my shimano steps E-Bike keys, I think it's either a ABUS or AXA lock, please can you give me any advice, would it be the same pick & technique as you used or a different pick & technique, please help I'm desperate. Great video thankyou.
@@sloopycat1954 i picked a wafer lock. Don't know what type yours is. If it is disc detainer, it is entirely different.
How will I know the difference, I can't see anything inside the lock, please can you you advise me so I can tell you the type of lock hopefully you can tell me the best method to open it then. Thankyou
@@sloopycat1954 you can tell the type of lock, by the key it had, and what it looked like. I don't know what one you have.
@RustybeltAuto Hi the key looked like your key at 0.25-0.30 secs with the black plastic on it, my lock looks similar to the first lock you picked as well, my lock is either a ABUS or AXA lock I think, made in Holland. Thankyou.
@@sloopycat1954 it is a wafer lock then. Same stuff pretty much.
I've unlocked a tubular pin lock with just a plastic straw for the slushies at circle k
NO SHIT, KRAZY COOL, OH & CHROOOOME.
This shit feel like smoking with the old coworker and he go on a whole rant bout some random shit
i bet you can not pick lock Letric ebike step through 2.0
What makes it so special?
its a got a ignition key that's double sided that has a one kind of key that's not made anywhere.
@@allps3review it probably only has tumblers on one side. Im sure you can order a blank key.
@@RustBeltAuto it's a one-of-a-kind key there's only two of them made in the whole earth other then the manufacturer lectric e-bikes
@@allps3review there is a number on your one of a kind key then, and probably a key number attatched to the purchase of the bike. Also, it's not exactly one of a kind, being the only one in the world. It's not that special. Some other bike rolling around has your same one of a kind key, I'm surr. You can buy more from the manufacturer, so you don't have to scrap it if you loose your key. I cannot believe a locksmith cannot match one up, or grind one to fit.
Probably not even close to the claimed amp hours either... all this knockoff junk everywhere is a cancer.
Ya. Probably not. These are very cheap cells (about 1.30$ each). Definately not worth 500$. The company however is known for building cells that are not prone to thermal runaway. 2 for 1 is a good value.
