You are indeed correct... It looks like a 1T5 with a red light socket. However searching for a 1T5 Controller I have not found any with the same connector I have. I think a controller with included lead is the way to go.

AmbewWolf - yeha - very much agree with you. I think I am going to buy a KT controller with matching lead. That should mate with the KT display and Bafang motor .... pleaase god let it work. I wil also be moving the controller from the old "waterproof" box into the rack mounted battery box -...

As I am finding out - can't find a controller in this config anywhere. I am thinking of getting a controller and new 1T5 lead. The controller and display should work as they at least seem "standard"ish.

Thanks for the confirmation I was not going mad. I have sent the old one back ... Now all I need to do isfind one that match my existing setup. I am wondering if it might be easier to buy a new lead at the same time ... displats and throttles seem to prety much standard ... the hunt continues.

Hi all, bit of a head scratcher here. I just bought a new controller (KT- 22A) to replace one that flooded. The new one does indeed say it's a KT-22A and all looks good apart form the socket for the T4 extension lead. The old plug/socker is different. Both round and same diamater but the old...

AmberWolf to my rescue again :). Thank you. All of these things sound realy bad. I think Iwill stick with 2A. I would rather take a bit longer and be less "explody".

Hi peeps. I am about to buy a new charger for my 48V e-bike battery. When I had a look I see they come in all sorts of different ampages and I have no idea how this relates to battery charging. Is it a case of higher will charge faster but both it and the battery will get hoter along with a...

OK Gents - we have our first data point. I had to go into work today to pick up my keys I left there on Friday - and as it happened I also snagged a multimeter. Now see if any of this makes sense… 25 mile ride - 14ah battery mostly on throttle so basically riding it hard both ways. When I got...

Ohhhh - this is interesting. Both battery packs have dedicated recharge sockets so the "not to be used for re-charging" does not sound like it will be an issue. It would be nice to plug both in and not worry about swapping. I think I will get the voltage meter I just ordered and get some date to...

Annnnnnd ... that's what happens when you are not paying attention. Thanks for catching that. I have canceled the order and placed one for the meter you kindly found me.

I have a multi-meter and will take readings before I make setting changes. Just wondering if one of these would be worth it for £10 - wire it in all the time and get real time data...

I would love to do this BUT ... one battery is a 9ah and the other is a 14ah. Just to make it more fun the 9ah is a year or two older compared to the new 14ah. From what I found when looking into this it seemed there were issues with two identical batteries - let alone two mis-matched. I figure...

I got to be honest - it’s stuff like this that makes me glad I am at the end of my career rather than the start of it. I am a Wintel System admin looking after about 100 servers with a team of two. At the moment things are quite safe but over the years I have seen workload decrease as hardware...

Yeha. I'm still new to all this (electric not trikes). Also - I guess - this is a different approach to a lot of use cases. I want to be able to commute with a minimum of fuss in as many conditions as I can (spending a lot of effort on waterproofing things). This is to be used as a utility work...

Sorry if I caused any confusion. When I said worked before this is in relation to the batteries being able to supply the old 1K motor. The 500 is new and I only have 100-200 miles on it so it's all newish. That chart is however very interesting. Acording to the Bafang manual it is sett to the...
