This controller was sent to me via Dogman, to run my new trike the SB Cruiser. It's purportedly a 40A controller, but even after I figured out the 3speed switch and other stuff, it still gets a peak of 33A max (on one ride it once got a peak of 40A+ but I have no idea why and it hasn't happened again). Basically that means the SB Cruiser doesn't have enough power to get out of it's own way, much less accelerate in traffic at any safe rate.
I've got an X5304 on the front in a 26" wheel, so I have the possibility for quite a bit of startup power, if I can get the controller to feed it to it from the "48V" EM3EV A123 20Ah prismatic pack.
It also doesn't seem to have regen enabled yet, though I haven't played around with the pads yet.
I did find some pics of a similar controller elsewhere on ES, but there wasn't any further info about it in the threads I could find it in, as far as pad connections and whatnot go.
Anyone that has had one of these and gotten regen working, I'd appreciate knowing what pads to hook up, before I experiment with it and probably blow it up (leaving the SB Cruiser with only a 25A controller at that point...which also doesn't have regen).

The SB Cruiser itself as it should look once paint and panels are done:
and as it is right now:
