For the European market NIU chose the well-known Swiss manufacturer of ready-to-use GPS modules: u-blox.
A press release of u-blox reveals that they use the standalone GNSS‑Modul MAX‑7Q, which is using a Multi‑GNSS technology (GPS, GLONASS, QZSS und SBAS), making sure that tracking will work in any part of the world, at any time, independent from a single satellite system.
Does the GPS still work when I have the battery removed for charging?

Yes it does. That’s why the ECU battery drains pretty quickly…
the u-box with gps is very unliable. It seems there is a lot of interference at the manufactured poaition. (Vertical under front steer) everything in the front, with all the wires causes a lot of interference. Even the gps antenna isnt that good.
So i ordered one online. And placed it under the buddy seat.. now even insode a building i gave gps signal so happe after all

Very nice hack! So did you open the ECU? New cables pulled from the front towards the seat-compartment?
Pictures would be very interesting (hint, hint 😉 )
