Connection via accessory or low-voltage outputs

To connect the Charging Module to the accessory or low-voltage output of an e-bike drive system, you can use the following SP Connect cables:

These cables are designed for connection to the accessory or low-voltage output of an e-bike drive system. Depending on the manufacturer, these outputs are commonly used for lights, USB chargers, trackers, alarm systems or other accessories.

Before purchasing, make sure to verify the voltage of your e-bike's accessory output, either by checking the manufacturer's specifications or by measuring the voltage directly. This ensures you select the correct cable for your drive system.


Cable specifications

Cable 6V DC

  • Input: 6 V DC, max. 2 A
  • Output: 5 V / 2 A

Cable 12V DC

  • Input: 12–14 V DC, max. 8 A
