Saw a street legal 2012 Zero X with no battery on Craig's List for $895 and thought it would make a good project. From what I read, the original battery was a 14s, 3 kw pack. Not sure this is correct. I hooked up one of my 15s batteries charged to 58 volts and all the 12v electronics (lights, display) seem to work just fine. The controller and motor look to be in good condition. I have seen some YouTube videos where the the original battery was replace and the BMS unit was bypassed so I know it can be done. Looking for more information and possibly a wire diagram for the 8 pin connector (to the BMS?). I have 4.2Kw of 15s batteries to do a test run but plan to build a 4.5 kw (14s?) battery. Here are some photos:
