Ultra Bee Charger

🔌 Ultra Bee Charger Overview

The Ultra Bee Charger is the dedicated charging unit for the Surron Ultra Bee, a high-performance mid-size electric dirt bike. This charger is specifically designed to safely and efficiently charge the Ultra Bee’s 85V lithium-ion battery pack, providing the necessary current and voltage regulation to maintain battery health and performance over time.

 

⚙️ Specifications

●Output Voltage: ~85V (nominal battery voltage)

●Input Voltage: Typically 110V–240V AC (universal)

●Charging Current: Usually ranges from 8A to 12A (depending on model and settings)

●Charge Time: Around 3 to 4 hours from 0% to 100%, depending on battery size and state

●Connector Type: Proprietary Surron plug or aviation-style connector

●Cooling: Often air-cooled with built-in fan for thermal management

 

🛠️ Design & Build

The charger is generally compact and housed in an aluminum casing with ventilation. It includes:

●LED indicators for charge status

●Built-in safety features like over-voltage protection, thermal cutoff, and short-circuit protection

●A fan that activates during charging to prevent overheating

 

⚡ Charging Performance

Smart Charging: The Ultra Bee charger uses smart charging protocols to balance cell voltages, prolong battery life, and improve safety.

●Top-Off & Maintenance: It includes a final stage where it gently tops off the battery to full charge, ensuring longevity.

●Thermal Monitoring: It monitors internal temperature and adjusts current flow accordingly.

 

🔄 Compatibility & Upgrades

Compatible Only with Ultra Bee Models: Not interchangeable with Light Bee or Storm Bee chargers due to different voltages and connectors.

●Fast Charger Options: Aftermarket fast chargers are available for those wanting to reduce charge times—though users must ensure they match voltage/current ratings to avoid battery damage.

●Portability: The stock charger is moderately portable, but third-party compact chargers exist for riders who need a travel-friendly solution.

 

⚠️ Considerations & Maintenance

Ventilation Required: Always place the charger in a well-ventilated space during use.

●Connector Safety: Ensure connectors are clean and dry; improper insertion can cause sparking or poor contact.

●Battery Storage: Avoid keeping the battery plugged in after it’s fully charged for extended periods—disconnect to preserve battery health.
