It's working fine but I didn't let it completely drain on the first 3 charges like I was suppose to. This is a new curry ezip eco ride bike. Is it too late to do the proper break in? Did I shorten the life of the battery?I let the battery drain about half way before recharging on the first 3 times.
Answer
i have the Currie conversion kit on a regular bike and as far as i know all you have to do its not to let it drain completely but only let it go down to about half and then recharge right away . i have seen some people complaining about having drained the battery completely and then the battery dying right away after the first use , so many people are saying than it is not recommendable to drain the battery at all as they suggest in the instructions .. anyways mine is working fine so far i did tried to do the break in and all but after the first time i just decided to just starting charging it after half and not less as others were suggesting ...
btw you need to make sure the battery does not stay for very long on the charger ( just the 6 to 8 hours suggested ) because that's its actually one of the things which reduces the capacity of the battery to half and the charger can be damaged that way as well ( if you ever see a charger going green right away that means damaged charger and you need to get a replacement fast because being half empty its not good for your battery ) . .

Does the alarm system ruin battery of bike?
Jignesh
I purchased a new Hero Ignitor three months back. I also got installed an anti-theft alarm system on it. I went on a long tour and the bike was idle for *one month* at home. After coming back, I found that the battery of the bike looked drained. I drove the bike for 4 days, hoping the battery to be recharged- but no improvement at all. Might the battery have been failed?
I doubt did the alarm system drain the battery? I am not sure about the truth. Should I remove the alarm system now? I will appreciate any guidance on it. Thanks.
Answer
3rd vote for a trickle charger. If alarm installed correctly it would not run the battery down. Motorcycle and scooter batteries are delicate compared to automotive batteries. Trickle chargers are cheap and can prolong the life of the battery for a year longer or more.
