JayLow Posted August 7, 2023 Share I have a couple of Powertap G3 power meters, and one of them has a battery drain issue. The powercap is cracked and I suspect some moisture got in, causing some corrosion-related issues. Couple of questions: does anyone know whether this is repairable and who could do it? Does anyone have a spare powercap for sale? The unit still works but it drains the battery in about two weeks. Workable fix is to remove the cap and battery after every ride, but this is, of course, a major hassle. I don't have the confidence and self belief to attempt repairs myself.

DieselnDust Posted August 7, 2023 Share Your best bet is to contact cape cycle systems first . They may suggest you contact bicycle power trading for potential repairs. Bicycle power may not want to work on it without CCS knowledge as they are no longer an official service centre, so that’s possibly the way to get it sorted.

Mongoose! Posted August 7, 2023 Share The one I had drained a new Duracell battery in hours... Dave Brown form Bicycle power responded (in last week) to my e mail enquiry to Bicycle power , and directed me to Cape cycle systems as the brand was sold in 2018 to CCS. CCS did not bother to respond to my enquiry to them. My take is : If you have a Powetap hub and it is working - use it. But if you have one with issues - accept there is no support and that is outdated. Move on and get something else... pedal base or Stages etc...
