Been a while, thought I'd share a quick update. Adaptto Max-E is running brilliantly in my Enduro Ebike with MXUS clone. Peaks of 14kW are truly an awesome thing! Thanks to Merlin I also have an amazing fast charge setup allowing nearly 2kW charging with a flatpack charger, serious charge...

Another question... Is it possible to charge via the Adaptto coil from another boost converter? Basically I have a 12V solar setup with 40Ah of SLA's available to power low power stuff in my trailer. There's a 120W solar panel on the roof. Would there be any issue boosting the 12V system to...

Thanks Merlin, great information, I PM'd you back about the charger, connectors and wires, looking forward to receiving those. That video is great, it's satisfying seeing such a nice chunky wire and such a powerful charging system. :D Can't wait to get rid of those awful XLR connectors.

Yeah that's a good idea, I think I'm going to switch to neutrik connectors also as I've seen on others builds, does anyone know which type is recommended?

Covered in mud is how they are supposed to be lol! It's been a very dry couple of months here in the UK. Unbelievable really. I did clean it this morning :D

Well I did it and it works! It's a meager charge current but I'll see if I can modify the other KingPan. I'm loving this controller right now. :D

Thanks for that, interesting about the chargers with relays. I think what I'll do is check the voltage output on my Kingpan 48V charger and see if it outputs anything without being connected to the battery.

Right guys, everything is working nicely now with the Max-E, I've had a few rides and I'm loving the smooth power delivery and the ability to program the controller on the fly. With the domino throttle and regen thumb throttle it feels like a drastically different machine. I know I'm a bit late...

This morning I have nailed the problem: Broken ignition wire (internally) which was making an intermittentl connection hence my controller was appearing dead although I did get it to turn on once. I've cut the ignition wire back past the break and all is well. These wires are made of quite...

That's impressive, yes I could do some really long distance with my 30Ah battery or crank the power for brutal acceleration. Or have a bit of both...That's why I like the idea of the highly configurable power profiles available on the Adaptto. I've had another fiddle with the wiring, still...

Thanks, I'm trying to keep the faith. I'm really looking forward to be able to control the power precisely and to be able to do long range trips reliably. (Without stopping at phone shops yes!! Haha) The features of these controllers do look impressive, I am already impressed by the setup...

Yep!! Brumbrum, yeah I am beginning to learn that this controller is more finicky than the Chinese controllers I've been used to! I've tried lots of fiddling with the wires, reconnecting of the plugs etc, it's actually hard to locate the problem by wiggling wires etc because the display takes a...

Here we go again...my MAX-E is once again not working. I did some basic setup of the controller last night (auto calibration etc) and it was fine, then this morning I started fitting it to the bike, I got it nicely installed, reconnected everything and now it no longer powers up again. This...

Hi, thanks for the reply. I do have a charge coil but was debating using it because I like my current charging method which is to use a dedicated charger high power charger which Charges via my batteries BMS (non Adaptto) it's an elegant solution. I was just wondering, as I'm sure I had seen...

Thanks guys, and I nearly forgot... Happy Easter! I've got another quick question, I'm going to be charging the bike battery using my KingPan 10A charger as I've always done, if I want the Adaptto to register the charge process am I correct in thinking I can hook up the negative charge wire to...
