I have two Crystalyte Journey kits and would like to run one motor with both 36v nimh batteries in series for 72v. I realize that the existing controller can't handle that kind of voltage and I need to buy another one which can. The problem is that the Crystalyte 36-72v 20ah controller available for sale has a different sensor connection (I have a flat rectangular five-pin connector from my motor, the new controllers have the round metal XLR connector). Is swapping the connector from the original controller doable/difficult? Is there one wire corresponding to each pin that I would have to reattach? To reattach these, could I just twist both ends, then tape the exposed portions? Obviously, I'm electronically challenged and need help.
Also, is this the proper series connector that I would need to connect the two batteries?

Thanks in advance for any pointers or recommendations. Also, if anyone has one of these controllers for sale ...
