Has anyone heard of Aventon adding app widgets to make lock/unlock easier? Of course a watch app for Android would be the most helpful. It would be great to be able to just hit a button on my watch but an app widget on my phone would be just as good.
Does anyone have experience charging e-bike batteries using the 120V outlet in their vehicle while driving?
I’m planning some trips with a couple stops and thought it might be nice to top off the batteries between locations. I’d be using my 2020 Ram, which has a 120V outlet rated around 400W. From what I’ve found, my bike chargers pull roughly 100–200W each, so in theory I might be able to run two but I realize that’s probably pushing the limit once you factor in startup surge and inverter efficiency.
I’d definitely turn off the auto start/stop so the inverter stays active, and I’d expect one charger to be solid but curious if anyone has actually run two without the outlet tripping or shutting down.
Anyone tried this in the real world? Any issues with the inverter, chargers, or charging performance? Worth doing, or not really practical?
