TeslaTap has designed a NACS conversion kit for the Zero SR/S. They should be available to the public soon. The kit allows from BOTH NACS and J-1772 chargers up to 19.7kW... https://www.myteslatap.com/nacs13.jpg   https://www.myteslatap.com/nacs6.jpg

How is that any different than the existing TeslaTap mini? It's not like it can convert the DC Power from a Supercharger to the AC required by the SR/S. Is there something special about the SR/S we don't know about?

Hi Ray,
Are you sure it is not the aluminium spacer being slightly distorted causing premature bearing fail?
I had to replace rear wheel bearings 3 times in 2 months, before realizing it is the spacer.
Machined a new spacer, and ever since no more bearing problem.

Can you tell me the dimensions of this tube?

I am a warm ray of sunshine.

Still, it's polite to introduce yourself first, not just dive in first post, shilling a product, no intro, background, nothing. 
Too many spammers do that. 
If he's a legit company, let people KNOW that, that you ARE a rep and a reliable / respectable source of info.
Hearing YOU talk about no hostility?  Oh that's rich!

My racing bike will do that too on the first charge after sitting a few days, it'll hunt all over the place once it's in a balancing mode, but as soon as I get the percent down to where it's back into normal charge mode,  uhh, mid 80s percent wise?  then from that point on the charge is like you'd expect it to be.  It'll do this in both AC and DC charge mode once it hits balancing.

 Sometimes I'll put it up right after a run with 70 percent or so on it, im tired it's the last run of the day, it's getting ready to rain, whatever, I say ehh, and put it up for the night . Being monday, up for the night means a week or two .  This is when I see that manifest it seems. 

Not entirely sure WHY, but yah it is kind of annoying because it slows down the first charge of the day.  Maybe because I just romped the hell out of the pack, and put it back like that, they are out of balance enough to cause it to go in that mode?  At first I thought, hmm do I have a weak cell, but if that was the case it'd be doing this EVERY time, not just after a long set and only the first one.

Definitely sounds like a balance issue,  give it a FULL charge, even if it's sitting there showing zero, but still says balancing, let it run, over night if it has to.  If you come back the next morning, and it says 98 or 99 percent, even if it says charge complete, start it up again, maybe have to do this a few times until you get a good solid FULL charge where it does hit 100 percent and then says complete.  This way you KNOW it has a full charge, the batteries are nice and packed and absolutely balanced, and have a good clean starting point.

If you do restart the charge at say 98 99 percent and it keeps going for half an hour, an hour etc, then it probably was that time out turn off someone talked about?  Because if it was fully charged and stopped, it should very quickly, like 10 minutes or so, hit full charge again and terminate. 

Make sure you have the bike off, ie no sitting there with the lights on etc, stuff to drain the battery down while it's sitting.  that little bit of draw could goof with a charge Id imagine.

As for FW 43 being the culprit, I am going to have to say NO.  My race bike has it's own custom software on it and does the same thing so it'd be hard to blame it on 43when it happens other places too.

Otherwise, Ditto !!  I have the 23 Ribelle and LOVE IT !!  Only complaint I have is it being capped at 125.  This really sucks on a track... and well...not supposed to say this, but a nice sunday morning, no traffic,... it can suck other times too   Too bad youa re not around Jax, we could go for a run together.

Def, that makes sense.  I will charge to full at least once a week from now on to see if things improve.  For now the only thing that bugs me is when charge current keeps fluctuating, most of the time I have it set to 14 amp. So like today it got up to 70% and started dipping to 6 amp and ramping up to 14 before dipping again. Wasn't doing that before.  Bike is Eva '22 my with a little over 10k miles.  Runs like a champ, looks new too, I keep it clean haha.   
Think they said tested for 1200 or 1300 cycles at DC fast charge and that's why they increased the warranty to five years instead of three.  As for me I rarely charge DC, that's only if I extend my ride and can't get home with remaining charge. 

Sounds good Arron

No reason for hostility. I have no problem with a TeslaTap rep here; I think that's a good and useful thing. Hello, TeslaTap person!

I'm glad I wasn't the only one that thought something nefarious was going on, made me feel judgemental for a moment

Police closing in?

Thank you Jaime for the update.
Yah that would be a huge red flag, bad credit relations in the past.
THAT right there, ok so you are not paying your bills, meaning you either A, don't have money (to buy the stuff you need to build MY bike) or B: you are a con artist.  If you don't care enough to pay that man the money you owe him, why would you care enough to pay me the bike you owe me??

Both good reasons to NOT deal with that company.,

Even if you did manage to make a bike and sell it to me, if you are not making ends meet, what happens 3 years down and I need work done, but YOU are no longer there to supply the parts I need?
