Ok running an edge 1,500 with a 15fet powervolicity bt controller a CA V3 and 48v 11ah pedago battery for testing.. On the CA no load. I get 3.41amps tired many wire combos . It sounds high to me ??? Or anybody have the correct combo ?
 
There are 3 combos, but I've heard out of the three one will draw a bit less.

Also 3.41 does sound high, unless you have field weakening enabled.
 
I would expect something closer to 2A. +1 on the field weakening. The PV controller can be set up for field weakening, which would make the no load current higher. If you program the speed for 100%, that should turn off the field weakening. Also check for things like dragging brakes.
