I've spent 100s of hours trying to tweak and repair my eGR. I've decided to give up ghost and order a 1x SRAM set up.

I've tried to quickly search, but couldnt find it - does anyone happen to have the groupset weights between er7 / er9 / erx?

I understand that the er7 is all metal, but in terms of weight how big is the actual penalty?

I get you, but trust me, my SRAM https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005008653585785.html isn't perfect either. For the last couple of rides, the left shifter has been lagging, like it's falling asleep. I'm spending just as much time dealing with this despite the brand and the higher price tag.
yeah. also pogo pins on their derailleurs tend to corrode and loose connection to the battery. I had to learn to solder to fix that crap

For me it was 3 dry rides and no washing. How can I check if my powerbank can wake it up? It does charge it
More than likely should be fine with that, mine wouldn't charge from my power bank for some reason

Cables were definitely correctly plugged and if they weren't, reconnecting would have waken the drivetrain up. If you disconnect any of the cables and then connect them back the drivetrain immidiately wakes up. So I'm pretty sure the problem is somewhere else. If it happens again, i will try different batteries and maybe a different battery holder but my current battery worked prefectly for more than a year and it would be quite a coincidence if it suddenly died after i swapped the drivetrain.

V3 has some nice features but I'm now beginning to regret the change after it almost ruined a ride on what was a single warm day in weeks.
I will also ride with a front light that doubles as a powerbank in case i need to wake the drivetrain up again
The battery pack contains a microcircuit that cuts off power when the charge is low, preventing the batteries from being completely discharged. Check that the batteries are making good contact, as disconnecting one triggers the protection and requires reactivation. Therefore, it's quite possible that hitting a bump could cause poor battery contact.

Look in the description on AliExpress. Some sellers have photos of the scales in their descriptions.

Hello. I just received L-twoo er7 groupset and I'm having some issue. I think the battery holder is dead in my unit. When I put 2 fully charged 14500 batteries into the battery box and plug the cables to the front and rear derailleur the led on the derailleur is not flashing during plugging and I cannot finish the pairing process. When I click on rear derailleur function button nothing happens. I sent a message to the seller and I'm still waiting for the reply. Had anyone got similar issue? On the side note when I put Cr2032 batteries into the shifters their light blinks when pressing buttons like they should.

you need to connect the charger to wake the battery up

pretty vile of ltwoo to save literally 0.02usd on the single usb c pin required for C to C charging. when you are not particularly competitive in terms of price or weight, its the least you could do when usb charging is a selling point

Hello! I'm looking into buying a Ltwoo eRX v3, the newest model, but I'm planning to use it on 1x setup. Is it possible to just connect FD from time to time to charge batteries? Or the front deralliur has "brains" of the groupset inside?

It was an option with ER9/X to run 1x and magnetic charging from the RD. The current 12 speed EGR (not the new 13 speed EGR) provides a special USB charging cable that connects to the battery cable of the EGR RD. They removed magnetic charging from the EGR and switched to that charging method.

I'd ask 80 Design Store if you can purchase that USB charging cable so you can directly charge to the battery holder without having to attach the FD.
