I'll dismantle the battery and show actual pictures but it will be during the weekend. Stay tuned !

This is from GM website: http://www.goldenmotor.ca/product_images/d/263/041__83408_zoom.JPG http://goldenmotor.com/SMF/index.php?topic=4260.0 The one I have should be the same...

Tell me about the plug issue ... :D I've been there so many times that I replaced it with a heavy duty connector. New fact that might shed some light : I found out why yesterday I wasn't able to charge the battery with the trick of applying load on the battery: Yesterday, for the first time in...

Hi All, 2 years ago I bought from GM the lifepo4 16 cell 48v battery that looks like this one: http://goldenmotor.com/SMF/index.php?topic=4260.0 It served me for 2 years running for about 16,000km. Power, efficiency and charging speed are as good as when the battery was new. Starting from about...

Hi All, I have the Golden Motor Magic Pie I for 2 years together with an external 1500w ecrazyman controller. The 2 are a real Gem for me. Recently I hear these strange noises coming from the motor at very low speeds but not right from speed 0km. It starts from 5km/h and ends at 10km/h. The...

It's also a matter of altitude. I remember the good old days I spent in the US living in New Mexico (Hector Salamanca : "Ding Ding Ding !!!) ... Albuquerque has a combination of high altitude (thin layer of atmosphere filtering the sun) + Turbulent air (clear of dust = again less filters) +...

OK. I Got it. So the reason my balls glow in florescent green is probably due to what they put in these colorful cereals :-)

I would appreciate informative answers rather than answers which assume I'm a 90 year old granny ... Cigarets were not considered a risk a few decades ago and so were transformers installed in front of your window. Please enlighten me with explanations and scientific facts rather then teaching...

The damage caused by long usage of cellular phones is a known fact. Especially among kids. There is also an issue with vacuum cleaners : http://www.name-n-shame.co.uk/airborne_radiation.php I admit that wasn't able to find any article that would claim the same thing on e bike motors and I was...

Is the fact that ebike motors produce low radiation related to their DC properties ? AFAIK the output of the controller is not DC... Another important factor is the battery. The media is full of warnings to stay away from cell phones when they are being charged. Isn't that 1000 times more...

Thanks Dave for the good news. BTW, I use 50 SPF lotion :wink:

Hi All, I'm the proud owner of a Magic Pie electric motor tuned to 1500W. I paired it with the ecrazy controller. Both are a dream combination as far as performance and reliability. I'm still left with the concern that I'm sitting 10" above a 1500w source of radiation. Do I risk cancer ? Were...

Now throttle regen problem is also resolved. I changed slip charge mode to 1 and now regen is totally disabled. So the attached setting is the final one. Thanks for your help, neptronix. By the way... I don't need to mention what a great product the ecrazyman controller is. Everybody knows...

I increased current setting to 26A and it's a rocket ! Power problem resolved ! I'm doing some experiments with regen settings. Stay tuned !

These are the settings I'm using (attached screenshot) Do you notice any regen current limit ?
