As I addressed earlier, I wish I had purchased the 2017 model because the frame wraps around the motor. If you hit something, or if something kicks up and smacks the bottom of the motor at 28mph - there's going to be a chance something could crack. On some of the Easy Motion bikes I've ridden that have similar-sized (417Wh) batteries, they top out at around 25MPH, which helps to preserve the battery by limiting discharge current to ~15A/36V, whereas a lot of the IZIPs will draw to cruise at 30MPH, and their battery heats up and degrades quickly at that level of discharge current. If they had outfitted them with 13S4P batteries (adding an additional bank of 13 battery cells), not only would you get 33% greater range than with a 13S3P, your pack's cycle life would approximately double. Most IZIP S-pedelecs come with a 13S3P 48V battery that isn't up to the task of reliably cruising at 28MPH without degrading the battery quickly. ![]() The display indicates a range at full charge of 31 miles, but that's unrealistically optimistic. My 2015 IZIP E3 Dash has seen its range cut in half, from ~40 miles to ~20 miles, after ~3,000 miles. Hopefully I can get back on the road quick.īattery degradation is a problem that affects IZIP S-pedelecs far more than bikes from other brands. The rise on the top tube helps gives the bike amazing stability when making sharp turns, I can zip around really effectively zigging and zagging, I don't know if that's just a feeling I have or a design either way it's awesome. With the battery mount issue I think I'll need a whole replacement of motor (unless it's just a wiring issue) and a new battery and mount, and that's a tall order so fast after purchase but I don't want to pay $800 for a new battery down the line because this one has been rattling around the whole time. I'm bummed I can't ride my bike, I just got it this month, I'm nervous about the warranty - you never know how things are going to be covered. The 2017 Dash has its headlight mounted just underneath the display on the bars, so that isn't an issue. I tilted the display down once at night and the wires clipped the headlight while turning, bending the fender and separating the light wiring. I put my bike up to get a look at the bottom of the motor and there is a gap that was letting dirt and dust in and from what I can see the inside of the casing is just caked with dirt.Īnother thing to watch for is the wires that come off the handlebars and off the display. The 2017 model addresses the two biggest concerns/problems I've had - the semi-integrated battery holds it in place and doesn't allow rattle (which I worry has done unknown damage to my battery, as it has vibrated and rattled enough to dislodge pins in the battery mount) and the frame is built around the motor, protecting it from possible impacts and dirt/debris. To those thinking about one, had I known what I know now, I would have bought the 2017 model despite the price difference. I should point out that the Dash is a fantastic bike, an absolute blast to ride. ![]() I'm bringing it into my LBS tomorrow and hoping for the best on warranty coverage. If I'm not mistaken you hold the +/- buttons for 10 secs, correct?

I am hoping for an average speed of 20MPH on commute, supplemented by lots of pedaling from me. Generally, I have been looking for a Class 3 commuter set up to take me on a very flat 20 mile on way commute in the Dallas, TX area. I asked the seller if he would be willing to sell me just the bike and drop the price, as I would be interested in just purchasing some 3rd party batteries so I know they work, but he said then he would be stuck with some ebike batteries that he couldn't sell, so he'd prefer to sell them all together. With that being said, I've been looking used, and was curious if anyone has an opinion on this 2014 iZip E3 Dash? Does it seem like a good deal at $1k? (Link Removed - No Longer Exists) In my ideal world, I would replace our family's second vehicle with an ebike, but I am nervous to put down big money on a nicer model before trying one out and making sure it's a fit for our lifestyle. ![]() I am in the market for my first ebike, but have not pulled the trigger yet as I'm a little strapped for cash.

![]() The home goods retailer already holds $1.9 billion in long-term debt, up from $1.2 billion a year ago. And with only $154 million of cash left in the bank, management has virtually no good options left.įirst, consider the debt market. The company still burned through $1.05 billion in the past 12 months despite reducing $223 million in working capital. (The firm now has so many interim managers that half of its management team page lacks headshots).īut even the best efforts by management might not suffice. And BBBY has wasted no time in slimming down both its rank-and-file staff and C-suite officers. That would allow the retailer to shift inventory from closing stores to remaining ones, buying it more time to work out debt obligations. In Q3, CEO Sue Gove reiterated that the firm is on track to close 150 stores in fiscal 2022. In other words, once a retailer destroys trust with its vendors, rebuilding inventory takes a lot of cold, hard cash.īed Bath & Beyond’s management seems keenly aware of the credit risk. And discount retailer Tuesday Morning (NASDAQ: TUEM) only emerged from bankruptcy after securing a $ 110 million lending facility backed by three major investment banks. In 2018, Toys R Us folded after a bankruptcy warning caused suppliers to cull previously negotiated credit lines. This isn’t the first time a retailer has entered a death spiral. A Bed Bath & Beyond store in Burlington Massachusetts, Jan. Picture of empty store shelves in a Bed Bath Beyond store on Jan 11 2023 Others reduced credit limits to the retailer just as the busy holiday shopping season was kicking off. In November, suppliers to Bed Bath & Beyond began withholding shipments, worried that a potential bankruptcy could snarl payments. When things go wrong, however, the feedback loop quickly runs in reverse. That frees up cash to build new stores, creating more negative working capital to build even more stores, and so on. ![]() Companies like Walmart (NYSE: WMT) can have negative working capital - a case where goods are sold to end customers before suppliers are paid. In good times, this creates a virtuous cycle. Some retailers like Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) take the concept one step further and don’t pay suppliers until the inventory is sold. For every 30 days a firm like Bed Bath & Beyond can draw out payments, its return on capital invested increases by around 12%. Retailers have long boosted returns by paying suppliers late. Bed Bath & Beyond: Beware the Retail ‘Death Spiral’ 10, the firm announced results that missed expectations by a mile, sending its business into the closing acts of a retail “death spiral.” And although Redditors are valiantly pushing prices higher, they’ll have to send shares into the $25 range before BBBY stock has any chance of salvation. InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading Tipsīut away from the Wall Street trading floors and social media hype, Bed Bath & Beyond’s underlying business is looking increasingly fragile. … Right before Reddit investors sent shares up 200%. ![]() “A hoard of Reddit investors could easily send shares up 200% or more,” I wrote. In June, my quantitative Profit & Protection system flagged Bed Bath & Beyond as a cheaply priced turnaround play. It’s not the first time the home goods retailer has rewarded meme investors. Gleeful Reddit-based investors have since pushed shares up another 120%.

While Fox didn't budge, others noticed their efforts. That, along with poor marketing that failed to capture the rebel spirit of the show, contributed harshly to the untimely fade to black of "Firefly."įans continued to campaign for Fox to bring "Firefly" back for another season, sending in letters, emails, and petitions to get their favorite show back on the air. Airing on Friday nights - a timeslot sometimes referred to as "the Friday night death slot" - didn't help, either, which set the series up to fail. So, rather than continue to try and build a bigger audience over time, Fox axed the show before it even got off the ground. Aside from out-of-order episodes and Fox's apparently unrealistic expectations, the real reason "Firefly" was canceled was low ratings. So, what took "Firefly" down? Though the show was mostly well-received by critics, high praise sadly wasn't enough to keep the Serenity afloat. Additionally, "Objects in Space," the last produced episode of "Firefly" originally intended as a Season 1 finale, was aired just before the pilot, and three episodes never aired during the original Fox run at all, instead premiering in the United Kingdom the following summer. Eventually, the Science Channel aired all 14 episodes in order, though "Firefly" had been off the air for nearly a decade by then. ![]() ![]() This enhances the transparent ‘Spectral’ look of the case, further showing off the coolant and internal components. 35916 Singularity Computers Spectre 3.0 Integra Elite - Black 449 449.0000 USD InStock /Case Parts & Mods/Water Distribution Products Spectre 3.0 Integra Elite replaces the front and/or top radiator panels with a distribution plate.

![]() Scientists have already confirmed what anyone who's dived headfirst into a plate of fries after a bad day knows: Stress can lead to a poor diet. To connect the cutting-edge-research dots, let's start with new findings that show how the ancient practice alters the structure of the brain, enlarging the stress-regulating hippocampus as well as the superior parietal cortex, which governs focus. At 44, she is happier and lighter (she dropped 20 pounds with yoga) than she was working as a fitness instructor in her 20s. Jenese Martinez (right) discovered that she didn’t have to fight her body to change it. Instead, she applies the stress-lowering techniques she learned on her mat to her relationship with food and as a result, she dropped two sizes. Josie Say (left), 39, no longer worries about the scale. In this case, what's profound is what this virtuous loop ultimately changes: the body's very shape and size. Changes in the body change the mind, which changes behavior, which reinforces changes in both mind and body. Its basic outlines will be familiar to anyone who has ever read a self-help book. ![]() ![]() (And these yoga poses can also help relieve menopause symptoms.)ĭespite not knowing exactly how sweating so little can work so well, scientists are piecing together a compelling story about gentle yoga. Additionally, yogis who started at a healthy weight were more likely to maintain their weight than those who never unrolled a mat. In Kristal's study of more than 15,000 adults in their 50s, overweight people who did yoga at least once a week for 4 or more years lost an average of 5 pounds, while those who didn't practice packed on an average of 13.5-a difference of nearly 20 pounds. Nonetheless, promising results continue to roll in. The weight loss that happens with gentle yoga isn't due to the typical causal pathways, in which you burn more calories than you take in, says Alan Kristal, lead researcher in an ongoing study at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle. It may sound like hype at first: "Melt fat without breaking a sweat!" Even scientists who've done some of the key studies recognize the disconnect. But the best part is it can roll up on its own!

To reap the benefits of yoga, you need to have the right mat. Because what they are confirming is that a practice that at times looks like nothing more than lying on the floor with a couple of blankets under your tush can change your body. But the experience of Pransky and her students takes yoga far beyond Physiology 101 and into the counter-intuitive world of mind-body mystery. "I see the same changes in my students."Ĭertainly, anyone can understand why a vigorous Sun Salutation series would tighten the core and firm the triceps. "I haven't worried about my weight for over 10 years," says the 46-year-old former marketing director turned international yoga teacher. But working ferociously to maintain her weight stopped making sense once she discovered what scientists are just beginning to understand: Yoga-even the gentlest of styles-has an uncanny ability to make everything in life a little easier. If it was hard, she was into it, and as a natural result, she was sometimes as stressed as the students who now flock to her slow-flow vinyasa and restorative classes. Twenty years ago, the New Jersey-based yogi was as fired up by the corporate ladder as she was by the step classes and rigorous marathon training she subjected her body to.

1 bar is equal to 100,000 Pascals, which is close approximately to atmospheric pressure, so it is often used to represent atmospheric. It is widely used in the daily life particularly in European countries, though that is a non-SI unit. Bar : The bar is a unit of measurement for pressure. Technically I should have subtraced 1.01 which is 14.7 psi or 29.92 in/hg, but 1 is a lot easier to remember and the results are close enough anyways. 580.15095 Psi (Psi) Visit 40 Psi to Bar Conversion. Which is 14.7 psi or 29.92 in/hg below atmospheric pressure (atmospheric pressure being 0 psi). You guys get the idea.MAP sensor reference starts at absolute vacuum. psi to bar conversion formula: bar psi 0.0689475729 bar psi / 14. Using the simple formulas below, you can easily convert psi to bar. So say we are trying to figure out how much boost a 3 BAR map sensor is good for. Simply multiply 50 by 0.0689475729: bar 50 0.0689475729 3.447378645 bar Therefore, 50 psi equal to 3.447378645 bar. The way I do it is take the manufacturers MAP rating, subtract one, then multiply by 14.5. ![]() 1 bar is equal to 100,000 Pascals, which is close approximately to atmospheric pressure, so it is often used to represent atmospheric pressure rather than standard. For example, to convert PSI to kPa, divide the PSI number by 6.895. To do so, switch the formulas around and divide rather than multiply. If anybody else is as confused as me, what Dee is trying to explain is how to find out how much boost a MAP sensor is good for. 333.5868 Psi (Psi) Bar : The bar is a unit of measurement for pressure.
