I used a spare two pin Julet connector, that I plugged into his Rad's headlight voltage feed connector. Used the multimedia to determine which pins were positive and negative.

Thanks for the info! Here is the connector photo.

Question, My neighbor upgraded his Rad headlight, and he gave me his standard headlight. Link to website product I will use this on a current non-Rad bike. According to Rad's website it is rated for 48 volts. What I need to know is : 1. What is its voltage range? 2. What are the Juliet pin-outs...

Good Idea. Still want to fiddle around and make a fixed speed throttle. I spent the time to put Julet connectors on all the wires vers the plastic crappy ones, so I hesitate to start that all over again with a new controller. I will measure the voltage on the signal wire while the rear tire...

PAS workaround: 1. Install a 2nd throttle mechanically fixed to 10 mph with a momentary push button to activate then I can add my pedaling. Trying to hold the throttle fixed at 10mph is hard to do. 2. Send down the signal wire with a momentary push switch the 5 volts reduced to 1-2 volts...

You have to match the display to the controller. The controller that came from Leaf is NOT a KT. See attached photo.

From what I have read on this forum, the display is only half of the equation. The motor controller may be limited by design or oversight not to provide a lower PAS setting. Further examples of this are located @ Help Programming controller - Duotts C29 - Chinese E-bike PAS is very bad

I don't have a speed mode that I can see. Level one is 20mph with a 52-volt battery. I have attached the manual.

While I pedal it keeps accelerating, with the rear tire off the floor until it gets to 45 mph, which is the top end. Did find a number of posts with the same situation that PAS is fixed to Max speed, depending on make and model of the display and the controller.

Installed a Leaf 1500 watt motor. Description here. The issue I am having is when using pedal assist. The motor keeps accelerating to its top-end speed. I am unable to add human power to the bike using PAS. (Ghost Pedaling) Current menu settings: P11: Assist Sensitivity: 24 P12 Assist...

Excellent video! Curious about what flame-retardant epoxy is being used for potting the batteries? Found this interesting video

Excellent thread, thank you for the link.

I reached out to Leaf inquiring about connectors. Their response with a photo. "We can make 1500w motor with below waterproof cable." No indication in the response that the motor controller comes with the proper cable to interface.

Does anyone have experience with the Leaf brand of hub motors? 1. Do the motor connectors have waterproof connectors similar to Julet and or HICO connectors? 2. What precautions do you take if the motor connections do not have the above connectors? 3. How do you protect the motor controller...

Has anyone mounted their Garmin Radar to the rear of their helmet?
