Fly 6 CE Being delivered today

Ahhh, it's like Christmas in, well, May, but still, I'm getting my shiny new Fly 6 CE delivered today, and I can't wait to get home and get this thing charged up and ready!

Cycliq was very helpful, offered me a trade in, I decided to see if I can replace the battery on my own and just bit the bullet and ordered a new one. If I get the battery replaced I'll donate the older version to our local cycle club to hand out to someone who needs one.

I believe it’s just a single 18650 battery in there. I know that’s what was in the previous version, but I don’t know if it’s soldered in or not. I’ve opened up my v2, but never my CE.

As for donating... very awesome.

The one that's not holding a charge is the v2, the CE showed up last night, but it had it's own version of the red ring of death, my luck has been poor with these devices. I've got another ticket open for a return, and already ordered a replacement since waiting for an rma when I haven't even had the thing on the bike was out of the question. Let's hope the one that shows up tomorrow works.

I replaced the battery in V2 with a 3200 mAH solder tab 18650 battery. Not difficult. It was an improvement over the stock 2600 mAH.
