Power boost for electric motorcycles
Technical Problem
Electric motorcycles depend on the state of battery to deliver the máximum power. If the battery is not full charged, the motorcycle cannot run at maximum power. Who has this problem? Racing motorcycles, motorcycles which needs to climb hills or accelerate to overpass other vehicles. The idea is to use an additional source of power for given at any time the MAXIMUM POSSIBLE POWER even higher than the battery can provide. Which is the first market? Electric endurance motorcycle producer. We are in collaboration already with EMAX
The product’s aim:
To offer a boost to an endurance motorcycle for climbing and racing Three main elements: Supercapacitor bank: for delivering high power Power stage: connection between batteries, supercapacitors and motor drive Controller: for the human-machine-interface, which depends on the type of riding.
Technology features:
Outstanding boost power at any time. High regenerative power Exactly what is needed in competitions. No other manufacturer has this option. It is unique and very attractive.
