Shimano Steps SM-BTE80 Charging Adapter Black

• Adapter for charging the battery (BT-E8035) with charger (EC-E6002/E8004)

The Shimano SM-BTE80 adapter is an original Shimano adapter specially designed for charging Shimano Steps BT-E8030, BT-E8035, and BT-E8036 bicycle batteries. This is because the Shimano SM-BTE80 adapter serves as a coupler for Shimano chargers from the EC-E6000 series. When you place this SM-BTE80 adapter into an EC-E6000 charger, you can use this EC-E6000 charger to charge BT-E8030, BT-E8035, and BT-E8036 bicycle batteries.

Additionally, you can use this adapter in an EC-E6000 charger to charge your Shimano battery without having it installed in your bicycle. This way, you can remove the battery from your bike if necessary when you want to charge it. Especially in extreme weather and temperature conditions, it is practical to be able to charge the battery indoors. This is because it is better for the lifespan of the bicycle battery not to expose it too much to rain, snow, water, and extreme temperatures.

FEATURES OF THE SHIMANO SM-BTE80 ADAPTER

The adapter weighs 106 g and is black in color. The adapter's model number is SM-BTE80, and the part number is ISMBTE80. Additionally, the adapter is a plug-and-play product, meaning it is easy to use without requiring additional installation or configuration. The adapter is also recognizable by its 4 contact points, with 2 larger ones on the outside and 2 smaller ones placed one below the other in the center.

The adapter is primarily made of plastic. It is quite robust, and if not handled too roughly, there is no need to worry about the plastic sides breaking. In summary, Shimano’s SM-BTE80 is of very solid quality and can help you charge your Shimano BT-E8030, BT-E8035, or BT-E8036 battery.

SM-BTE80 SHIMANO STEPS ADAPTER COMPATIBILITY

This adapter is suitable for Shimano EC-E6000 series bicycle battery chargers, such as the EC-E6000, EC-E6002, and EC-E6010. Additionally, the IECE60001 charger can also be paired with this adapter. With this adapter, you can connect your EC-E6000 series charger directly to your Shimano BT-E8030, BT-E8035, and BT-E8036 battery. This does not require the bicycle battery to remain in the pedelec. Therefore, you can also remove the battery from your e-bike and then charge it indoors using the aforementioned Shimano chargers, including the adapter.

Thus, the Shimano SM-BTE80 adapter, when used with a charger from the EC-E6000 series, is suitable for Shimano e-bikes with a Shimano STEPS motor and a Shimano BT-E8030, BT-E8035, or BT-E8036 bicycle battery.
