Product Information

The brand notes the PowerTube 500 is compatible with all Bosch e-bike systems. And it can be charged directly on the frame. Plus, manufacturers will have freedom to design a bike that utilizes the PowerTube on the top, down, or seat tube. Since the introduction of its first Intube batteries, Bosch has offered manufacturers two options for integrating the energy storage unit into the bicycle frame. Consequently, you can also buy these two different versions of a PowerTube with the corresponding number of watt hours right from the start. In the heat of the moment, however, it is easy to confuse the horizontal battery and the vertical battery. Or at least, when it comes down to it, you find yourself wondering which version does your ebike actually feature. At this point it helps to know how to tell the two apart.

We haven’t tried it ourselves yet. So unfortunately I can’t tell you whether it will work or not. However, since the Akku Vision batteries use the same battery management system as the Bosch batteries, the signs are good.

Bosch's new eBike battery can be integrated into the frame of an eBike, invisible from the outside. This considerably widens the range of options available to bike designers, manufacturers and end consumers. The PowerTube 500 combines style and practicality, offering the power of an eBike with an aesthetic that more closely resembles a traditional bicycle. The Bosch PowerTube 500 is the smallest Intube battery from the Smart System family. Nevertheless, the battery with 500 Wh has enough energy for lots of e-bike fun. Thanks to the compact dimensions, the small Smart System PowerTube impresses with handiness and manageable weight. This makes it ideal as a second battery for shorter trips with your e-bike or as an additional battery in your luggage on long trips. The PowerTube 500 Smart System is also available in horizontal and vertical versions. Features of the Bosch Smart System PowerTube 500 Wh All battery manufacturers are probably facing this development to a similar extent. And at least in the short term there is no relief in sight. As long as pedelecs are in such demand, this also applies indirectly to replacement batteries for the respective drives. Daniel Maiberger, for example, does not expect the situation to return to normal until the second half of 2024. Alternatives sometimes more powerful

The Bosch PowerTube finds its place in a wide range of e-bikes and s-pedelecs. Whether trekking, city or e-mountain bike, the PowerTube 500 battery is suitable for all purposes. The Bosch battery is compatible with the current Bosch Active and Performance Line motors. On the top, different facings can be attached. Bottle cages or similar accessories also find their place on it. The PowerTube 500 Wh can be charged with all three Bosch chargers: Compact, Standard & Fast Charger. The charging time with the Fast Charger is approx. 2.5 - 3 hours.As Daniel Maiberger, managing director of the battery manufacturer Akku Vision, confirms in an interview with Elektrofahrrad24, battery cells or parts for battery management systems are currently in absolute short supply. In general, the situation regarding the procurement of components was “challenging” even before the Covid-19 pandemic. With the pandemic, however, the situation has worsened. In the meantime, even getting hold of things like screws or extruded aluminium profiles has become extremely difficult. eBike batteries are hazardous goods and can't be sent in the post. Taking your eBike battery on the plane is also not permitted. In theory, DualBattery works with all Bosch motors. In practice, however, the manufacturer of your ebike may have prevented this option for various reasons. This is not always the case, but it is possible. In most cases, the design of the frame simply does not offer enough space to integrate a second battery. Those who still want to try this out are thereby responsible, and in any case risk the warranty of the bike. Usually, a short message to the manufacturer is enough to find out what is feasible and what is not. Unfortunately, there is no list, database or similar, to help you safely clarify this by yourself. 3. The crucial question of space Can be charged while mounted or independently, the charging port is very durable and uses a proprietary plug that won't get mixed up with other chargers

Depending on the shape of the frame and the cross-section of the down tube, bicycle manufacturers decide whether to use a horizontal or vertical battery. This often determines how the battery can be removed from the ebike. If the battery is removed from below or above, a horizontal battery is usually installed. If the battery is removed from the side, it is typically a vertical battery. 2. How can the two types be distinguished from each other? Taking all of that into account it’s pretty clear why Bosch PowerTube 500, 500Wh Vertical Mount Battery scored such a great price score of 8.1/10 and why it features as one of the top recommended products in the Cycling category.The PowerTube 500 unveils this week at the Sea Otter Classic in Monterey, Calif. The battery promises to become the next evolution of many popular e-bikes. Raleigh and Haibike will be among the well-established brands demoing the system at the show.
