I've noticed BMSBattery have a bottom bracket torque sensor, available at reasonable price with a controller and lcd display, or pretty cheap as part of a battery pack with built in controller, lcd, throttle, cables etc package. So, a few questions about this:
- Has anyone bought/used it? Is it any good? How easy is setup? What hub have you used?
- It suggests a hub with built in speed sensor is needed - would the Q128C they also sell be a good match?
- More generally, would the 500W Q128C and the torque sensor plus battery plus controller kit (i.e. here: https://bmsbattery.com/ebike-batter...-panasonic-battery-torque-sensor-battery.html) be a good match? I'd go for the 36v motor with high torque option, this 36v 14.5Ah Panasonic battery, the 20A sine wave controller built into the battery case, and the lcd from the kit. I'd skip the throttle, no separate speed controller is needed, and I'd make a decision on whether to use cutout brake levers or not until testing, which would make for a fairly clean, stealthy setup other than the battery case. (I'm also going to email to see if the same 20A sine wave controller will fit in their bottle case, as that only seems to come with a 250W S06p square wave controller at the moment).
- Finally, what cells do BMS use for their lower capacity batteries, as it looks like Panasonic only for the highest capacity and cost of each battery setup but its not stated what the specs of the other cells are...
Thanks!
