Pros & Cons
Pros
On average i probably ride at about 15-18 mph but whenever i get the opportunity i throttle up 28ish (which is pretty frequently lol) so from my estimation, i burn about 1 volt per every 2 miles at full charge. With this beast battery at 52v and 19. A... Read More
This battery puts up a pretty good fight so far. I hope it lasts for years. Battery is great.
There is paper insulation covering the cells to protect them from the metal bms/other items in the housing. The internals are well constructed, with appropriate anti-vibration measures and good electrical shielding. There is an o-ring seal where the c... Read More
Mounted directly to the two screw holes i have for my water bottle holder.
It's so hard to get an honest seller theses days. I highly recommend this genuine h/l battery from upp over any other brand or company selling here.
Cons
Used battery for 3 weeks. Seller recommends sending replacement bms. I am hesitant as the battery was 3 weeks old, and i dont want a rebuilt battery.
My ebike keeps shutting off after only several minutes of riding. Today on my commute the battery caught on fire. My phone will say it's charging for a split second, then it stops and wont continue charging.
Highlights
Quality
Product works great with my ebikeling 1500w 48v motor which i run on my 26 schwinn sidewinder, which i built as a utility bike.
This appears to be a well made, quality product.
I had an issue with the charger.
In the future hopefully they can resolve the issue with the 52 v 21 amp hour chargers.
Price
It is a bit expensive, but i think it is worth the price i have a little over 125miles on the battery currently.
What ever the cost, every time i ride and save on gas, which is 5 dollars a gallon right now, what ever i spent on th e bike, its worth it.
Shipping
I contacted upp and requested a replacement connector and told them that i could solder it in myself so shipping for a repair w... Read More
Packaging/appearance
The problem is the plate has three holes and the predrilled holes only two.
But it is larger than i had expected and the built in frame that is designed to screw down into the pre-drilled threaded insert... Read More
Competitiveness
Very powerful battery for a 750w electric bike
I used solder and seal connectors and a heat gun to easily give a water tight connection to a xt60 plug.
It's important to note that if you have a 1000w motor, even though it is rated for it, the bms occasionally cuts the power for ... Read More
They took that battery back, then bought the cheapest 36v to replace, and my bike has never run faster or stronger.

After 800mi the connector had gotten hot and melted shifting the contacts resulting in no power getting to the bike

This was my fault as i was not switching off the battery before installinguninstalling which caused arcing and carbon buildup in the connector which caused heat through a bad contact
