Good tip. Thanks!

Looking for a sanity check here.... For electrical connections tucked away inside my EEB frame, would waterproof wire nuts suffice (as opposed to solder + heat shrink)? Using wire nuts may be a easy way to expedite my build without sacrificing functionality, durability, and safety. However, I...

Friends- Today while mounting some new tires I managed to bend my rim walls. Because the rims are still perfectly circular and true, is this simply an aesthetic mishap, or are there safety/performance impacts that I should consider before riding? These rims are on a 3kw EEB. Sanity check...

Gotcha. The "had been" threw me.

What happened after 6 months?

I definitely see the appeal of this approach. 20-30kw? Wow, that's serious power! What voltages are these builds operating at? I'm using a Phaserunner on my 72v build and the remote on/off for that controller is at battery voltage (but with very low amperage), so one of my challenges is...

Wow. Lots to think about here. Regarding the OP's original question, would stepping down the voltage with a DC-DC converter be an option that would enable the safe use of low-voltage switches for on/off-ing the phaserunner? Or is maintaining full battery voltage in that connection required for...

Friends Can anyone suggest an good solution for a main power switch for my 72v build? I was thinking of adding a DC circuit breaker between the battery and controller, but perhaps there is a more elegant solution? The really slick options such as solid state push button switches seem to be for...

Excellent thought. I'll be using a Phaserunner with CA3 in this build, so I'll take a look into the configurations along these lines. Thanks.

Took measurements this evening and turns out that the 17" rims will fit much better than 19" rims in terms of both width and diameter, even with the wider tires. So there we have it: 17" wheel set with QS motor prevails! Thanks everyone for your wisdom and counsel. Couldn't have broken out of...

Shinko provides a fairly comprehensive tire spec sheet. Time for me to do some caliper measurements on my EEB frame.
