Hello all
I've been a lurker on this forum for a while now and have found lots of useful advice and ideas. Many thanks to all for that.
I have a 24V brushless geared hub motor kit with a 15Amp controller and I am thinking of running the kit at 36V. My question is what components of the controller are affected by the increase in voltage.
From my (limited) understanding the main components would be the MOSFETS. I looked up the MOSFETs and they seem to be rated at 60V and 42A so I imagine they will handle 36V.
Are there any other things I should check before putting 36V through it and possibly destroying my controller? I'd rather confirm in advance whether the controller can take it before having a go.
