Description
36V 15Ah Downtube E-Bike Battery – Compact Lithium Pack for City and Commuter Conversions
The 36V 15Ah downtube battery is the right entry-level solution for riders who want a light, compact pack with enough energy for daily commuting and leisure rides. Built around 10 cells in series, it pairs naturally with 250W–350W hub motor conversions.
The downtube format places the battery along the bicycle's down tube – the largest structural tube on most frames – using a standard mounting bracket and key lock. This keeps the weight low and centred for balanced handling, and remains the most widely compatible mounting style across road, MTB, hybrid and commuter frames.

Why the 10S configuration suits 250W–350W conversions
The 10S configuration means 10 cells connected in series, each contributing around 3.6–4.2V to the pack's total voltage. This delivers the standard 36V used by entry-level hub motor kits, giving a balanced ratio between weight, range and price for everyday riding.
BMS and cell protection
The battery integrates a 25A BMS, built with quality LG/Samsung cells, which monitors voltage, temperature and current per cell in real time, preventing overcharging, deep discharge and cell imbalance. The IP65-rated casing protects against light rain and road splashes in normal use.
