    Arkmundi's saga making & maintaining an A123 AMP20 battery

    Hobbyking's Turnigy Wattmeter does the same thing as the Watt'sUp Meter but at less than half the price, is frequently out of stock so you should put on your wishlist to be notified when its in.

    Help i've blown my currie motor

    Can you put up a few closeup pictures of how the torque plate and hoseclamps go together on the USPD kit? I have a bazillion parts here that came with this kit and I'm certain a good number of them are superfluous...a pic of yours would help.

    Changing the LVC in a 72v generic controller

    When the LVC trips the controller is inoperable, an LVC that is too low ends up killing your batteries...an LVC that is too high shuts the controller off before the batteries have been discharged. Capishe?

    Bypassing a brushless 600w MAC/BMC

    Yeah this was just a straight up test with no diagnostic equipment of any kind, hobbyking is out of stock on their wattmeters. So you think I should mount it to a bike first then try different phase combinations? Will do. I tried to save the hall wires but after cutting the insulation to...

    Bypassing a brushless 600w MAC/BMC

    Well I finally put my 400W MAC/BMC motor back together again without the hall wires and gave it a test with this controller: http://www.campsolution.com/speedcontrollerforbrushless36vdcmotorw78diahole-specialforelectronicbike1-1.aspx It is sensorless with 63V caps and 75nf75 mosfets rated for...

    Where did you get that planetary reduction? Can you post a link please it would go handy with my upcoming BMC mid-drive build.

    Bypassing a brushless 600w MAC/BMC

    Okmate what power rating or version of MAC/BMC do you have? That has to be the thinnest stator I've seen yet.

    Bypassing a brushless 600w MAC/BMC

    No I haven't pulled the stator yet. Below are pics of the 400W and 600W MAC/BMC motors. I also want to improve the airflow in the motor as once I pull this thing out I'm going to melt that epoxy with a heatgun and scoop it out like I did with the 400W. This motor is going to get some...

    Bypassing a brushless 600w MAC/BMC

    Not an illusion it's a much thicker shaft at 17mm and uses 6203-RS bearings as opposed to 6201Z bearings found on the 600W version. You achieved 30mph on 36V with the 600W motor? Impressive! I was going to use 12S lithium (44.4) but it looks as if I can just use 10S and save some weight and...

    Bypassing a brushless 600w MAC/BMC

    Awesome photo that is exactly what I needed to see. I'll try the motor sensored and sensorless, see what I come up with and report back here.

    Bypassing a brushless 600w MAC/BMC

    Well, I managed to extricate the original hall sensor wires that I had nearly destroyed. My version 400W bmc/mac is arranged much like your 600W version with the exception of their being two wires per phase instead of four. I still need the planetary reduction that comes with the lashout...

    Bypassing a brushless 600w MAC/BMC

    The reason I assumed it might now work is because sensorless controllers still need the stator to move in order to send pulses through the phases. This motor is attached to a freewheel and the stator is immobile. I hope that makes sense. Hold that thought about the motor for sale, I want to...

    Bypassing a brushless 600w MAC/BMC

    Have you tried running the motor sensorless? When I disassembled my 400W BMC the hall wires were so damned flimsy I tore them apart trying to solder to them, all I have left is the phase wires.

    MAC 6Fet Controller with 9 Continent Motor

    I want to pair up a 6-Fet MAC controller with a 9C 1606 motor @ 51.8V 25A. Before I get this controller and start frustrating myself with the phase/hall combinations is anyone already aware of the proper combo? Thanks, -J.W.

    Q85 250W motor current load issue

    I recently bought this motor and laced it into a 700C rim, the no-load current at 40V nominal was 0.7A on my Turnigy WattMeter.

    iCharger on the Blink

    Well, that was a short-lived fix. The iCharger quit after charging my 10S14P LiMn pack for one hour at about 250W. It shut down and now when any charge program is set it shuts off and stays off for a while, before it at least restarted :roll: .

    iCharger on the Blink

    Any updates on the blown charger? I just blew my iCharger this afternoon, definitely smelled like cooked mosfet's. Not wanting to spend another $125 + shipping if I can spend $5 and fix it I opened it up. There are 6 mosfets on the rear panel of the PCB: Five of them are IRFB3205 and one...

    FalconEV 19" triangle bag.

    Indeed he could. If Hi-Power Cycles would restock their large bags I'd be buying them for certain, between them and FalconEV they are the only ones to produce a quality canvas bag with the dimensions we need. I was emailing one of the owners of Hi-Power Cycles and they will not be stocking the...

    Aotema Kits.. Please Help

    Hi Dogman, Is the controller on that link sensorless? It looks like a great deal for my 400W BMC/MAC motor, I just removed the internal controller guts and now everything is ready for a sensorless controller.

    Giant DH Team, Cromotor, 18fet Lyen, 111v Lipo

    Very small world indeed, I grew up on Iris Street just beside the Ikea. Only rarely do I see an ebiker and they're never on anything as interesting as yours just the expensive bolt-on kits like the BionX. I do have a few bikes and I'd love to ride with you but none of them are going to keep up...
