Hi folks.
If you've been following my moped conversion at all, sorry it's taking so long!
I've recently become worried about my batteries though. I was planning to use a bunch of 12V 7AH sla I happen to have on hand - 4 in series, specifically - to run my HXT 80-100-B. I'm concerned I won't get enough current, or enough range.
The bike is said to weigh 90lbs with the I.C.E., I'm expecting it to come in at about 85 without the batteries. I'm thinking to gear it such that at 130kv / 48v it does about 50kph.
What do you guys think my practical range will be with these batteries? Should I forget it and go to 12AH units?
