Electrifying SUCKS Amps!!!

Maybe you should change the title to "Electrifying SUCKS Amps!!!" instead.

+1 on thread title change.

Just quick question, What is the voltage coming out of the hall sensor output leads from the controller? My BMC 50A controller is putting out only 4.73V for the power and 4.60 for the logic. If you can check this, that would help me greatly. It seems like there might be something wrong with my controller since it only turns for a sight moment before indicating a problem with the Hall Sensors.

Had a chance to get to the voltmeter today and my measurements are very close to yours... the power is 4.7volts and the sensors each measured 4.9volts to battery ground.
Hope this helps.

As for my original post, for each action there is an opposite and equal reaction. Electrifying DOESN'T Suck!

I've had a week's worth of riding and after a couple of initial adjustments to my CA and controller, this rocks. The V3 is running flawlessly with only 38 - 40volts and I have limited the current to 30amps. With a 10Ah battery, I've gone almost 60km with peddling, I actually only use the motor to flatten hills or push headwinds, but I did open it up once and achieved 58kph... at that point I was probably pushing my current limit as it was using 1200watts.

Ok thanks,

Looks like my controller sucks then. Hopefully that is all that is wrong with my setup. I can determine where else it can go wrong.
