| Re: I had a shop put a new cord on my Cyclo
Well, my cyclo is brand new. The cord is definitely cheap with a (appears to be) piece of shrink wrap around the cord where it go's into the case. This small piece is not shrunk, does not fit properly and is "WAY" to flimsy to be of any value as a strain relief what soever!!
If you take it apart you "Must" have a piece (Big) that they have used to go around the handle, this serves as a non slip surface and possibly to hold the handle together.
Shrink tubing is not and should not be used as a material for a strain relief or as a handle material in my opinion.It is used to basically protect unstressed wire connections but somehow has ended up as cheap material for other uses. It's basic construction is not ment for heavy duty use.
Accumulator is the handle on your older cyclo as I described above or different?
Getting shocked scares the hell out of me. A little shock today could be a big shock tomorrow that leaves you looking at the roots of flowers instead of the bloom, I hope you get my drift!!
