I purchased it from goldenmotor.ca

It's a 1000W golden motor

I've been out of the scene for a while now but I've got the bike running. Just thought I'd make a quick update with a video showing it running. What's left is to mount the controller and attach brake-switches to cut off the controller and activate the tail light. Acceleration is nice, pulling...

I've been out of the ebike scene for a while now but I see that you guys have a FAQ building up. The FAQ about the CA-DP connections links to my video but that video doesn't explain much. I've gotten a few PM's now asking about how I made the connection and it's explained in my post here...

Thanks for the ebay link. I'll have to see what my final physical battery configuration will be before I decide if boards are good to use for balance charging or if I should just create a harness without boards. Yesterday I finally go the torque arms on. After sanding, grinding, and making a...

I can't believe I forgot that I can use a butane torch for soldering! That is totally what I am going to do!!! I looked up that soldering gun on Home Depot's website but it's like $70. That's ok, I would only really need it for these connectors but here's hoping that the torch works well! I was...

Thank you! I did this and it fixed the problem. Turns out the e and c were the furthest 2 pins apart on mine.

You're getting me all excited! That's pretty good range for 120%. I have pretty thin wheels for a mountain bike so hopefully I'll get that or better :P Soldering the bullet connectors is much more of a PITA than I expected it to be. Two problems: 1. The 10awg just barely fits on its own into...

Hello everyone, I tried to fan mod my two meanwell s-350-48V acording to NeilP's instructions by shorting two of the pins on the Q5 transistor to force the cooling fan to stay on. Photo from auraslip's website: I soldered two wires to the pins so that I could attach them to a switch on the...

I need them 12s so that I can run them on my low-power 48V GM controller, which pulls a max of around 20amps. If I had them in 20s it would blow the controller. If I used them right away with my 1500W Hua Tong, it would pull a lot more current than I'd like. Plus, being in 3p, they inherently...

20s2p (12s3p for "breaking-in" the batteries), but yes, on my back :)

So I'm an idiot and miscalculated the amount of connectors I'd need to create paralleling harnesses so it looks like I'll just wrap the wires together for now. I hooked up 9 batteries into a 12s3p configuration and charged them up. Cell voltages stayed pretty even during charging except one or...

I don't have a scale to weigh it on but it's not heavy at all. Then again, I'm used to carrying huge loads on my back from textbooks, groceries, etc. But I'd say it's about 10-12 pounds.

Thanks! The bike I am using is actually a full suspension with a single pivot rear suspension. Maybe one day I can afford getting a real mountain bike but for now this one will do just fine :D So my midterms are done (for now) which gives me time to continue the build. I went to the post...

Thanks, I guess it should work then.
