Thanks Voltron. Absorbing as fast as I can lol. So will an 18650 size Panasonic GA and Samsung 22r(?) use the same charger? Or do all chargers get built to the battery chemistry?

Awesome input guys! Question about chargers: does the charger care which type of 18650 cell is in there? I don't want to damage a new pack with my existing charger, but wonder if these companies just push their charger. I assume there IS a difference in charger for LiFePO4? I have a 3a one...

Thank you induna! That makes a lot more sense now - pretty much the same pack with the more conservative rating. Since you seem to know this stuff pretty well, can you help us both out with the OP's original question? "* I'm leaning toward the triangle 18,9Ah 14S9P-22P. It seems like the...

I have the same exact question....found your thread while searching for an answer. I am also leaning towards the 50V ~20AH pack range and can't find a good explaination for why some vendors offer 50V packs vs 52V packs, and why I would want one cell tech over another. It seems almost all the...

Thanks Adrian, thats perfect. I definitely need more range so I am going to rethink the approach.

Thanks guys. The battery is a custom build from my old 48V Hanebrink X2. All that I know is I spoke with Dan Hanebrink and he told me it was Lithium Manganese Cobalt, and then mentioned it was the 18650 cells. He has it built by somebody else so I'm not sure how much I trust him, but that is...

Thanks Greg. As I mentioned I'm new to this - all I know is the seller told me its a "MXUS 4T" which seems to be the vernacular most people use on this forum. However, when I go to the simulator it gives me a whole host of MXUS options ranging from a max speed of 23mph to a max speed of 32mph...

I am somewhat new to ebikes and looking at upgrading my home built to a purpose built ebike frame. I am planning on buying a full used bike less battery/controller. It has most of the specs I want, and comes with a MXUS 4T motor in a 19" moto rim. I do not need the bike to do much over 30mph...

WOW, Grin Tech has AWESOME customer service. Called up and spoke to Ben, tried to make it quick since they prefer tech support questions over email, but half of what I needed was out of stock so kinda needed to review the order with them. I ordered everything less a new Crystalyte motor/wheel...

Thank you Dan! You just saved me a lot of time, I've been looking all over fleabay for Infineon controller. Much better to buy from the source :) So long story short just stick with my ebay 1000W rear hub, buy the upgraded controller and a good CA3, and I should be set? wesnewell- thank you...

Did you order this bike g-man? Interested to see what shows up. I have a china knock-off hub/motor combo from Amazon that I paid a song for (literally, won't get into how it worked out) and it outperforms everything I've ridden at $4k+ here in town. I'm almost afraid to sell it when I upgrade...

That makes a lot more sense ddk. Thank you! So I must have got a Chinese controller that's applying a lot of power to the hub I got. After a taste of Luna Cycles customer service I'm not even going to consider a Magic Pie (which is a shame, they seem cool). I guess I'll call Hightekbikes...

Looking for a little guidance after hours and HOURS of site searching. It seems this tech updates so quickly that posts from 18 mos ago are outdated. Please forgive my noobiness :/ Long story short, my eBay kit is awesome. But it lacks expansion/cycle analyst output/etc. I also have an...
