This battery holder bracket is designed to allow you to harness the power from your EGO 56V tool batteries for an e-bike or other customisation projects. It's a handy solution, especially if you need a dedicated holder without having to reuse parts from an existing EGO tool.
The kit includes files for several mounting options: a basic holder for placing in a pack or attaching with straps to a luggage carrier, as well as a 'thick' version with an integrated locking function. The thick version provides extra clearance for the locking tab, ensuring the battery remains securely attached while riding and can be easily removed afterwards. A wire clamp and an extra base are also included, providing flexibility for both permanent and removable mounting on, for example, a bicycle frame or luggage carrier.
For optimal function, the holder requires supplementary materials such as thin stainless steel for battery contacts and the optional locking pawl. Mounting typically involves some degree of customisation to ensure the best fit and stability.
The battery sits snugly and securely in the holder, and the locking function helps prevent unwanted displacement. Although the holder is robust, additional fastening methods may be considered depending on your specific application and the conditions under which it is to be used, such as uneven terrain.
Pay attention to proper polarity when connecting wires. Be sure to avoid short circuits during installation, and handle the stainless steel parts with care as they may be sharp.
