I need to spend some time with a USB PD analyzer and some of my hardware.
Earlier today I observed the following cursed USB-C behavior at a friend's place:
1) Laptop -> phone: charges phone
2) Power bank -> phone: charges phone
3) Wall brick -> phone: red LED on phone turns on, but OS doesn't show any indication of charging and battery level doesn't go up
4) Wall brick -> power bank: charges bank
5) Laptop -> power bank: LED flashes …

Progress on the #tricycle project is mainly in thinking about and working on the subframe. One thing that I'm sure is the right decision is to give the subframe a flat mounting flange, which will bolt down onto a matching pedestal within the hull. This will make the subframe easier to fabricate, and easier to mount/dismount - which I think will be needed for any work on the wheel or tyre.

New Computer Aided Design rendering of the aluminium subframe, now with a flat mounting flange. It is a gangly collection of welded rectangular section aluminium extrusions, surrounding a wheel, a bicycle chainset with an enormous chain ring, and an epicyclic gearbox mounted in front of the chainset, and driving the wheel by way of a secondary chain. Both chains run on the left hand side of the drivetrain.
A Computer Aided Design rendering of a carbon fibre subframe laid up over an extruded polystyrene armature. It has an identically the same mounting flange to the aluminium design, except this one is laminated carbon, and it wraps identically the same mechanical parts in the same arrangement.

A black-and-white image of a sleek high-rise building in the background, surrounded by trees. In the foreground, a paved pedestrian walkway is shaded by trees, with a few people sitting or walking. Bicycles are parked on the right side. The building features glass and concrete, reflecting modern architecture. The scene feels calm and urban, with natural light casting shadows that add depth and texture.

A black-and-white photo of an industrial area featuring a narrow railway track leading into the distance. A tall smokestack dominates the center-right, with another visible in the background. Overhead power lines cross the top. On the right, a decorative metal archway is attached to a wall. Trees line the left side, contrasting with the industrial buildings. The composition blends gritty textures with natural elements, creating a nostalgic and layered…

A black-and-white photo showing a straight railway track stretching into the distance. On the left, a tall metal fence bears a “KEEP WALK” sign with a symbol prohibiting pedestrian access. Behind the fence are trees and utility poles with overhead wires. A concrete wall with evenly spaced pillars runs parallel to the track. In the hazy background, tall buildings and a smokestack rise, suggesting an industrial urban setting. The composition uses strong…

Yet another sensor failure. They send 6 at a time for a 3 month supply. I am on the last from this batch. They are lasting from 4 to 6 days then failing with "Replace sensor" and error code 365. Only good thing about it is I added almost 3 sensors to my stash and maybe more if this one also dies.
But the annoyance and it failing while out sucks. As well as pulling off a really stuck on sensor since the adhesive has not started to break down yet. So yet another arm hickie…

CAD model of the #tricycle subframe. The chain ring is very nearly as big as the front wheel (80 teeth!). It drives an epicyclic gearbox mounted in the nose of the vehicle, which also has a disc brake. The epicyclic will drive a secondary chain via a sprocket mounted to the left hand spoke flange, but this is not yet shown. There will be no ratchet on the secondary chain, so the disk brake on the…

A CAD visualisation as described in the body of the post. Most of the structure is coloured grey, to represent aluminium tubes. The cranks and pedals, and the tyre on the wheel, are coloured black. The epicyclic body is coloured red to represent a Rohloff, although for budgetary reasons it will probably end up being a Shimano Nexus 11.
