    Infineon controller

    I got an EB224 controller that has 8 shunts (about half the resistance of a stock one). I know I should program the controller with half battery amps that im looking for but does the same applies to phase current?

    Throttle

    I played with several throttles and im yet to find a suitable solution. Would love a throttle like the Magura but with half the rotation and working from 1v to 4.2v out of the box. Its there a throttle like that available? What throttle are you using?

    Magura Throttle

    I just did the usual resistor mod to use the throttle with infineon controllers. Now the signal is raging from 1.250v to 3.220v wich is good. But the modulation is not good, its reaching 3.2v at 60% of the throttle circunference. Is there a way to make it reach 3.2v at 100% throttle? Im using...

    CA Calibration

    Ok, so I was trying to calibrate the shut using Justin/Methods way. 1) I plug the CA into your controller 2) I attach a power supply to your controller 24s lipo charged to 4.1 3) I set the iCharger constant current source (Foam Cut) to 10A 4) I attach the (+) iCharger output to your main...

    Infineon 24fet regen mod

    Im a little bit puzzled with the controller, I want to do the R12 mod, throttle regen and brake regen mods. Would I be able to mod the R12 with a 5.6kohms resistor be ok with it (maybe two 5k6 resistor in parallel)? So BK + GND will enable regen braking, but I want the throttle regen to be mild...

    MW or KP charger

    Reliability wise, Would I be better getting two NES-350-48 to use in series for 24s lipo charging or a single KingPan 800-900w charger?

    EB209 Current issue

    Im having an odd issue with a 9fet 4110 infineon controlle. CA is being used to measure the current(its calibrated using an icharger using Methods technic). No matters how many amps I set using XPD or parameter designer It never goes over 25amp. I know the parameters are being sent to the...

    Phase current

    Lets pretend im running 200 amps from the battery with 2.5x phase, wich would allow phase amps to be 500. How is all thoses amps transfered to the hub motor... are they equally split by the 3 phase wires or sometimes a single phase would be able to see, lets say 250-300 amps? Thanks

    Spokes for big DD

    Whats kind of spokes do you guys used put with big DD hubs like X5? The hub im going to use is bigger (like a magic pie) but it weight less, around 10kg. Wheel is going to be a 46mm 24" double wall. I was thinking about regular bicycle 13/14 sapim... would that be a good choice?
