Where abouts in the UK are you from?

Turn off your caps lock, I work in Coventry. Post a picture of your wiring and we will be able to help.

Anyone recieved one of these controllers? I would like an independent review/opinion on these from someone that actually owns one.

how about this? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Electric-Bicycle-E-Bike-Conversion-Kit-48V-1000W-Brushless-Motor-Rear-Wheel-/201073965777?pt=UK_SportGoods_CyclAcces_RL&hash=item2ed0f13ad1

I agree people with high power ebikes in UK are few and far between. So far I have only met someone with an electric moped and I have helped forum member lotrwiz (from south england) to build a similar bike to mine. I can come down if you like (with some tools, test parts, different speed...

I am from UK. I do the same, I have 2000-3000w on my ebike, 40mph top speed. But I live out in the countryside, pretty much never see police cars out here. (Hell, my brothers give the speed limit some abuse in their cars out here!). I highly recommend a rear motor kit, the front forks usually...

So you still taking the aggregate as a last resort in case the main pack runs out? or you just going to pedal your way to the next gas station? Fair enough using panel for the 12v aux pack, but I imagine it will have a tough time charging the main pack.

Yeah, it's not a mega high priority thing to work on. I am probably going to go with the 70 odd SMD resistor design if I do put it into production since they cost next to nothing :P I plan on some long distance touring myself, plus I am just a data junkie. I love seeing what is all happening in...

I will design it for 37 cell lipo. If you think you need more cells, you can parallel the balance plugs if you have a paralleled pack (if it is safe to do so with your ebike's wiring, if you do it wrong, magic smoke will be released!). I only run 24 cell, but there are some nutcase's on here :D...

I could design a board that will bluetooth the data to an Android device, going to require alot of wires though to send every single cell voltage to the board. (One wire/cell). Once that is done, you will need to come up with a waterproof enclosure for it. If you want it to work like that, I can...

I don't think that generator is too heavy, I have pulled that amount or maybe more in my trailer 10 miles or so up some steep hills on pure pedal power back when I didn't have a electric kit on my bike. Not sure how heavy the rest of the kit your going to carry will be though, at least the...

I run 100.8 volts through my 72v controller but that's right on the limit, definitely wouldn't push it any more.

What is that app your running on your tablet? Also, check out my ebike at http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=55913

I am also from UK (East Midlands), here's my E-Bike: http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=55913 Here's my Turnigy 1000w charger, its a beast! AP-ieGxqBlA Mine also can do 40mph but I don't do that often, I just designed it to be fast so that I can keep up with the car in front...

I am struggling to see the point now I have a 1000w charger, plus they are difficult to refill and there's no refilling infrastructure. I can charge 4 6s lipo's in 30 minutes. I can carry the charger around in my cargo trailer too. Quick enough for most people. Better off just filling the space...
