1, Heat is your main concern. Over volt enough and your motor will cook itself long before you need to worry about voltage jumping insulated wires. 2, Pretty sure fets are voltage limited, but pump enough current and they will still fry.

Location location location. Here cops pretty much ignore me. Like Dog said, as long as I stay under 30mph they could care less, but pass one doing 45 and he might want to know wtf you got going on with that bike. Now less than 10 miles to my east is Jacksonville beach. Even though it is part...

Helmet mounts tend to be bouncy. I use a clip on mirror that attaches to the arm on my sunglasses and it freakin rocks. Nice steady image just to the left of my eyeball. I adjust the mirror so that just cocking my head to the left I get a full view of what's behind me. Best damn 15 bucks I ever...

Put simply, on a normal upright bike with no modifications, you are going to have little input/effect at anything over 20 mph. Amp draw usually starts going up after 20 mph due to the increase in wind resistance. For the past week or so I've been riding with a fried controller. It worked fine...

And we're off to the races. Found the right combo. Controller: Motor: HALL: Yellow Yellow Green Blue Blue Green PHASE: Yellow Blue Green Green Blue Yellow

OK just did this, and this combo makes it go in reverse and it studers. Any one know the proper combo.

IME with chats on forums, usually the forum does not want to deal with the liability of a live chat. On more "family" friendly sites they require constant moderation. The simple fix for this has been for someone on the site hosting the chat under their private domain as an "unofficial xyz forum...

Just file a payypal dispute and see what they do.

Dude, lighten up. My inside information? This shit aint no secrete. But I guess none of them want cells with the specs like A123. lol And never did I suggest that none on ask for better packing. My post was short because I'm busy. Just that when you ask for better packing ask polity and...

Thanks Sam, It really does become a way of life. Just about every thing you do involves the bike in one way or another. It's not something most can do, so those who can should.

agniusm bought his loose sells from them and they did replace the bad ones. http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=33939

I'm one of the few who totally transitioned from car to e-bike. Being disabled, my city has a bus service that is branch off of our normal public transportation dept. They pick you up at your house and take you where ever you need to go. They will then pick you back up where ever they dropped...

If you are getting 4.5 Ah out of a 5Ah pack that has over 200 cycles on it, I would wadger that you are doing pretty good. HK liPo is known for not delivering exactly the rated capacity anyhow.

:shock: That's one expensive lesson! Sorry for your bad luck man. And Phil, I"m pretty sure that is a big YES to all your ?s regarding these 4s packs.

Also, if you bring up the issue of their packing, you need to tread lightly. This vendor has already threatened to not sell to us over seas customers. If packing them becomes too problematic, they may just say no more sales. Trust me when I say they really don't need our business. There is more...
