As the title says guys. I have the generic 48v 1000w leaf hub motor and a 12fet controller. This will be my first time riding the bike this weekend and I wanted to learn about regenerative braking... I noticed when I hand spun the motor with nothing else hooked up the two phase wires touching each other started arcing...so I know the spinning force of the motor produces potential energy to be harvested and put back into the battery...now for my lack of knowledge... I have a normal throttle control with no such lcd screen or anything like that. I'm using a power meter to measure my power output and voltage/amps... With that said, will this "standard" setup have regenerative braking? If so, will I see it right away from my power meter? And, is there any way I can make the charging "light" or "heavy" such as the regen braking on a Tesla...
Thanks guys!
Thanks guys!
