I just saved $600 bucks
I was tired after my ride today. As I took the battery off the frame, it fell on my big toe. This is the same toe I had wacked a couple days ago, and was already red and sore. It hurt. On the other hand, the battery didn't hit the concrete, prob saving me $600.
Still hurts.

Ouch!
Sure wish ebike batteries came with with built in carrying handles. Can’t understand why they don’t.

I carry my triangle battery by the Velcro straps, in the rare instance of removing it. But I'm extremely careful handling it during removal or installation, for reasons you have discovered.
