Hey out there and congrats for the Supercharger!

Is it possible to purchase  V2 in Europe?? Is it compatible with a DS13 with updated 12.5kw battery?

Thanks!

Just make sure not to exceed 3kW through the aux charging port on the 13DS. The onboard charger does not count against this, and you can totally bypass this limit by charging through the controller.

Where can I get it?
How to bypass?

See the product page for specs/pricing: http://diginow.it/super-charger-for-zero-motorcycle.php

Talk to Electric Cowboy about ordering, and about bypassing the aux charge port.

Really great this SCv2! Appriciate all the effort people put in this. Personally I'm still in doubt if I should go for an good DIY solution e.g. Remmies Charger, or go for this heavy duty, solid solution. Some questions regarding this charger though:
-How are the charger(s) being mounted and connected to the bike? I would personally avoid using the aux port, its in such a wet and not easy to access area.. I would mount and connect it in a more permanent style, weather and rain proof.
-I would love to plug the Menneks plug into the bike in a Chargetank style. But how to get a tank plastic with this plug? It's not seperate for sale I believe?
-Or keep a 2meter wire fixed on the bike and keep it in the tankbag, but is there room anough for the charger and the bag then?
-I want to charge in 2 ways, one is on a household single 16A 230V group and the second is on a tripple phase Mennekes type 2 plug. For the first option I would like to be able to maximize the current to this 16A, knowing that the charger isn't using it's max capabilities, but otherwise the fuse trips. So I use the max of 16A here when there's no Mennkes outlet available. For the second option I want to use the SCv2 to max the current and to use the onboard also. Summarizing, can one modify the current setting of the SCv2 on the fly so we can adapt to the power source available?

Besides this all I'm dying to to see any beta pics of installing/using this new charger! Also how it is mounted/configured when used some chargers together. Keep up the good work!

Is that 2x6.6kW=13.2kW?  Or 2x chargers equal a total of 6.6kW?

A total of 13.2kW yes, that should be enough to silence the hunger for more power until the bikes rear end gets reworked and +1C charging is available and tested. Then I might even up the ante to 20-ish kW.

That sounds good!  I was charging at 11kW regularly on my trip this summer and it was great!

Did the 3.3kW systems already ship? I can't wait for mine to arrive.

And 11kW is too fast, I need time to stretch and walk around. :)

Alright, finally breaking my lurking for 7+ months! I have my 3.3kW charger being delivered today. I'm guessing all of the installation instructions will be included with the charger itself and am ready to mount it ASAP. But, for those of us who got over eager back in June/July and ordered a power tank cover for it (not the charge tank plastics, they weren't available yet), are there instructions on how to install with that?

I know it's destructive and it requires drilling through the plastic, but that's fine. Brian, I believe you had instructions on the mounting of the J-plug from the v1 charger. Are you able to share those original plans just for mounting the J-plug? I would really appreciate it.
