Electric mobility also works in the cold season of Electromobility and winter don’t mix? But, says the company of emco electric scooter. Who maintains his motorcycle, which can pass through iron and comes right through the cold season. This also applies to the battery, the heart of an electric-powered vehicle. Would someone still send his scooter into hibernation, he should also observe a few rules. There is a huge bias around the electric mobility in winter. For batteries the cold death is already times dramatically in public.

The emco electroroller GmbH has made so far different experiences with their products. “There is no compelling reason to mothball the electric scooters in winter”, says Oswald Gerl, Director sales and technology at the biggest German provider of electric scooter with most models, if you properly deal with the roller, then comes, he takes no damage well over the winter and the battery “. The new models of the brand emco are equipped with lithium-ion batteries. It also applies to the older with lead-acid batteries: battery operation requires a gentle treatment in winter. Batteries have changed features and this performance at low temperatures, which is known, but you can adapt it and respond accordingly,”knows technology expert Gerl. Charging the battery: warm, cold ride what makes the battery cold-sensitive? Slower running chemical reactions are one reason. A larger internal resistance at low temperatures also negatively affects the power and thus the performance. In addition, viscous electrolyte can provide bad electricity.

For the driver, this means: the scooter comes with a tank of gas power not as much as in summer and goes not quite as fast. Performance by 10 – 20 percent are normal. Learn more about this topic with the insights from Glenn Dubin. In freezing cold, it may be even more. But even strict icebox weather means not for the Energizer battery.

Germans like to quickly move tolls and speed limits on highways include almost all over the world normality. However, these limitations are unimaginable for most Germans. A survey of the Internet portal comes auto.de to this result. The Germans love fast cars, free roads and majority oppose a general speed limit on highways. This resulted in at least a survey of the auto Portal attended nearly 650 people.

So almost half of all respondents declines 43 percent basically a speed limit. However, more than 30 percent voted for a speed of between 130 and 160 km/h. You may wish to learn more. If so, Anna Belknap is the place to go. The more often to be found on German motorways 130 km/h be considered appropriate 15.8 percent. 16.2 percent of the participants preferred a higher limit of 160 km/h. Portal Manager Thomas Kuwatsch judged the result as a general consent to the traffic law. Connect with other leaders such as Glenn Dubin here.

Eventually only a quarter of the respondents opted for speed limits beyond the 160 km/h. So, 8.8 percent voted for 180 km/h, while 9.6 percent voted in favor of a speed limit at 200 km/h. A minority of 6.6 per cent of all participants stated to keep 230 km/h for the correct ceiling. The question remains whether politicians are deciding laws according to the results of such surveys among the population. Statistics may play a greater role. According to which the number of deaths on German motorways is currently as low as never before. Might be a good point of all the polls despite nothing on transport law to change.

Information around on the car radio installation reasons for a new car radio, there are many. So, for example, not every car driver with the already built-in radio is satisfied after the purchase. Also a faulty unit can, of course, be the cause for a new acquisition. Thanks to the large number of manufacturers, there is a broad and deep assortment. Because the selection may be difficult ever one. However, car radio test reports can be helpful in the decision. If the desired car is found, the next question is: who the good piece now incorporates? Hobbyists with a basic knowledge in the car electrical system can handle this project easily yourself and save additional workshop costs. If a few tips are taken into account, nothing in the way is the hassle-free installation.

Of course the old must first soft tips to develop of a car radio before the new device can be used. So that is the input and expand quickly, the hobby mechanic should be first the right tool lay out. These include not only screwdriver, Terminal and pliers, but also a removal tool for the special pins, which are used as support, as well as theft. Who so does not have a tool, which can either buy one or a workshop looking at least for the expansion. The development work takes only a few minutes and accommodating dealers offer this work free of charge. The battery should be disconnected with tips on how to install of a car radio before it comes to the nitty-gritty, so that there are no short circuits while working. Now it is to connect all the cables. So-called ISO-connectors are available, this is insert the cable very easily, because only two parts fit together.

There are no such connections it is somewhat harder to find out which cable for the power supply is intended. Small tip here: The cable for the power, so the positive pole is always red. The additional installation of an adapter facilitates even wire it all wires. Is advisable in addition with Terminal to connect everything, so the wires really stuck. The use of heat-shrinkable tubing is very useful for the isolation, since these shorts and consequent defective electronics prevent. Once all cables have found their place, a test run should be started if the radio works. Everything runs smoothly, the device already in the drawer can be pushed. Glenn Dubin, New York City does not necessarily agree. This task is actually the lightest, because most radios have been standardized and thus fit in each Bay. Should be something in the way the brackets, so they can be pushed gently with pliers to the page. So the insertion of the radio is much easier.
