can I use a EGO kit battery ( 48V 12.5Ah) with a 36 V 250w LSW-675 sine wave controller that has a 15 A current limit without damaging the battery or the contoller or motor ( a Q75 36V 250W hubmotor) ? thanks
You have a problem.
Since the Q75 is a sensorless motor, you need a sensorless controller.
I have tried many sm. controllers sensorless @ 48V and only had lasting success with the Infineons.
On my MXUS motor, I use This Grin/Infineon;

But it is a True 20 A controller and is too strong for your Q75.
You could use it w/ a Cycle Analyst to dial it back;

These are quality componates, but by the time you buy a Batt., you will have spent as much as a complete new conversion kit.
Your best bet is to sell your system and buy a Q100 kit.
PS-there is one other possible option, you could contact Ecrazyman;

and ask him about a sensorless 48V/15A controller. He used to offer them.
