I mean something other than the guy putting the bike together, that one's obvious.
It's a 29" MTB, 2000w DD motor, KT 18 FET controller rated 22A / 45A max, 52v battery with a 30A continuous BMS.
I cooked the 20A rated / 40A max, 12 FET controller in less than a month. At some unknown point in the future AliExpress will get around to delivering the 18 FET controller and I'd like to avoid cooking something else so quickly.
I'm thinking the BMS is the new weakest link and I should probably set the C5 parameter to 05, which would lower the controller max amps to 33.8.
Does that sound like a good idea? I have a temporary 18 FET 45A max controller on there now but it has no display so I'm flying blind regarding wattage. Nothing feels like it's getting hot but I'm gun shy now since nothing felt like it was getting hot before but then it got real hot real fast, and direct replacements take a month to get delivered.
