    BBS02 number of PAS levels effect

    I'm wondering what the effect of choosing fewer than 9 PAS levels is? If one chooses say 5, does that translate into the same full power in PAS 5 as the maximum level of 9 would, with a bigger jump from level to level? Would that make level 1 of 6 somewhat equal to level 2 of 9? I'm finding in...

    how low can you go? safe minimum voltage

    I'm wondering how low the voltage can go without damaging the motor, controller or battery? Can I run it until the controller shuts off? Is there a built in safety cutoff? Would the bms on the battery shut down discharge at some low value as well? My primary interest is to learn what the actual...

    How to calculate amps drawn?

    I've been poking around the board for a week or so soaking up information, and I remain unclear about how to calculate how many amps are drawn from a battery at different loads. Hence my first post. I'm trying to calculate how many amps are drawn when a motor is run at an efficient rpm with...
