Here's my 72V Rocky Mountain Fusion with RH212 hub motor, Frankenrunner controller, and Cycle Analyst. Powered by Dewalt's now discontinued 36V outdoor batteries in a custom, 3D printed, ABS plastic holder.
The 7.5Ah 36V batteries are connected in series (540Wh) and are easily swapped for longer trips. I commute to work (30km round trip) so the pannier bags are used daily. I changed the chainring to a larger size to make it a bit more road oriented. I'm also a huge evangelist for systems thinking.
These batteries power our Grin e-bikes, Grin wheelbarrow, an iSUP, a fishing kayak, an inflator, a 2000W emergency power pack, in addition to all the Dewalt lawn and garden gear.
