Well I'm picking this one back up because my OG controller for this bike burned up a while back (*COUGHCOUGH3YEARSCOUGHCOUGH*)... one of the phases on the motor while it was running was just... OFF. Shuddering and sputtering... no power etc. So Now I'm trying to mate a salvaged controller to...

Thank you! Yes I have been eyeballing the 21700s, as the 18650 format is kind of obsolete for capacity and performance. Its a simple thing to resize this box for 21700s.

Welp, I've taken a long hiatus from here, but I've found my passion for ebikes again (translation: the divorce is over :LOL:). I'm picking back up on this project because it has a few issues that I sort of left with temporary patches. Left it with a hailong battery for a long time, not...

That's awesome-looking from a brief peek! I say add tiny ninja-star shaped "beads" around the U as well... they spin and jiggle about preventing easy cutting of the bar. Sharpen them enough and they become a hazard! >:V

Good day all... Did anyone ever sus out the wiring identification on this controller? I have one laying around, and I'm trying integrate it with a KT-LCD1 display/pas controller.

Holy loony toony shenanigans, Batman, that's awesome!

Oh excellent, I bet having three helps a lot!

It showed up in the mail the other day, so I'll install it and see how it feels comparatively. I have to replace the controller while I work on the busted one too, and that'll potentially color the results... so I will leave the old throttle on at first and then try it, and later install the...

Oh that's a sweet little build. Hows that Hailong/shark battery pack doing mounted how you have it to the curved tube? Is it a little shaky or doing ok? I ask because:

That's pretty much what I'm seeing too. I only wanted to address what was said rather than assume the position I was guessing was what you said below. Sometimes you can't debate a point with someone that feels so strongly about it. I guess we should all be on bicycles with trailers and take...

Again, you're showing a microcosm from your own life and applying the context and implied morality of it to the world at large. That's a false equivalency. To your last comment, it seems to me as if anyone who doesn't share your values on transportation is a jerk to you. Let's see you haul a...

I appreciate the input, as the UPP issue affects my advice to others. I've had friends and family come to me for ebike advice... and budget is always a concern. So far I've not pointed anyone to the super-cheap, simply because of the general risk. I've only advised one other person what...

I'm in the car-battery with charger and time-delay circuit with big relay camp more than other types of welders. The pocket welders from alibaba etc are neat, and I would presume good for repairs and maybe one-off packs. If you're going to build a lot, a low-voltage source with a relay is...

That's something I wasn't aware of, and that's good that they're willing. It seems to me that, the cheap BMS, and the lackluster packaging (at least in some cases) are the major drawbacks thus far. Looks like they're able to mitigate one, but it seems to me doing it on everything would be the...

You listed specifications and then stated you would judge people who bought it poorly. I'm concerned that you don't seem to see switching from ICE to an electric vehicle as an improvement. It's published specs out perform the current 5.0L V8, which I would argue is a about as big and fuel...
