But I think you can't have connection between positive poles...

    what controller can replace TL-200 Talent, from 36v bike

    Thanks for all advice. There are 2 wires to motor, which I finally got to run by hooking to 3 12v car batteries in series,,, I think my controller is shot. I am relieved since now I know motor is good and could at least hook direct to batts to make bike go. Bike originally took 3 12v 12ah...

    are sealed lead acid batteries lighter, and made for scooter

    I think sealed lead acid (SLA) batteries have less fluid, so are lighter than normal marine battery, is this right? So it would be much heavier to replace SLA with some marine batteries?? Are SLA batteries crafted to be drained yet still have good power and rechargeability, so are they...

    running batteries directly to motor

    Sincerely thank you everybody for the advice, which told me the good and bad parts of bypassing straight to motor,,, but when I tried it led to nothing so maybe it is brushless,,,, I inherited this bike so I am still trying to identify it,,, again thank you everyone for advice. TOM

    Hall effect throttle problem?

    Thanks for the information. In very very basic terms, with the 3 throttle wires at hand how does one test to see if triggering them (i.e., triggering the throttle) could activate the motor. TOM

    running batteries directly to motor

    Can one just run the power (36v) from batteries down by wire to the motor? I know one has to watch overheating, and some other things. So, can one bypass the throttle and controller this way? TOM JOHNSON UPDATE FROM ORIGINAL POSTER - - Motor finally ran when I hooked up straight to...

I have read the posts but can't be certain I understand, I really am new. Also am having trouble getting open...
