Ok that may certainly be helpful. I may have to do something like that. Thanks guys. I am not sure what brand my kit is? I got it off ebay. I wish I would have taken the time to research a bit more, I have found links to companies and sites, and learnt a fair bit once I came across this forum. I think my wheel has a sticker that said "power wheel", but don't quote me on that, as I am currently at work and cant look now. It a 1000W rear hub drive with what the listing said is a 48V sine wave controller. The control box says 36/48 volt but I don't recall seeing a brand name on it.
I have a somewhat basic understanding of electronics, so please correct me if I am wrong, but from what I am getting, the bike may be able to function without these switches? Like I stated in my initial post I am green to e bikes, and obviously still have a lot to learn. :lol: Unless there is some sort of cruise control I am not really sure why it needs a cut out? I am under the assumption the power is controlled by either the throttle or pedal sensor, so should cut off as soon as you let off? And I have no idea if it has regen, or e braking? It looks like everything else seems fairly strait forward.... so far. I am still unsure of what I am going to run for batteries, that's what I starting to look at now. Thanks again
