Can I use this to control my bionx bike ? What I noticed is that you don't have implemented eg switching on light yet. So can i find out by sniffing a second bike what commands to send to switch on off the light ?

It will depend on the version of your bionx console/bike, but I think that the protocol is quite similar (CAN bus). You need to listen on the network using sparkfun_sniffer and check if the commands sent by the bionx console and the battery are similar to what I had. I don't remember having light control in my ebike so this is not available in my code. So, definitely, the sniffer will help you find out all that is happening in the network. I had to save all the messages in some file that I analyze on the fly or afterward, and I had to experiment on a test bench custom commands.
