Requirements

Welcome to the Electric Motorcycle Conversion Techniques Course. Participants will be able to :

• Convert their own Gasoline motorcycle to electric motorcycle.
• Recognize what parts are used in electric motorcycle industry.
• Estimate costs of converting your motorcycle.
• Learn to use a range of tools used in the electric vehicle industry such as a clamp multimeter, battery resistance meter, soldering iron, lithium-ion battery charger, spot welder.
• Understand basic electricity e.g. voltage, current , resistance and power, Ohms Law. Kirchhoff’s Current Law.
• Battery design and safety.
• Battery charging and testing.
• Battery pack building.
• Estimate the size of a battery pack to suit the EV.
• Choose the correct spot welder.
• Describe the functions performed by a battery management system BMS.
• Choose a suitable motor for the vehicle.
• Choose a suitable controller for the vehicle.
• Describe the functions of a motor controller.
• Choose a suitable charger for the battery pack, fixed or adjustable.
• Describe the charging techniques for home charging and public charging (EVSE).
• Understand the relationship between motor RPM and speed of the vehicle using simple calculations.
• This course will provide you with sufficient knowledge to either work for an employer or start-up your own business.It is a very much hands-on course so be ready to get your hands dirty or just sit back and enjoy the ride (pun intended).I have converted my own motorcycle and it is a joy to ride. People turn their heads and smile when I pass them.

  I am hoping you will start-up your own business as I think there is not enough people trained outside the electric vehicle industry. We are fast approaching the time where petrol and diesel engines will be a thing of the past and there will be a shortage of skilled staff.
