Did you ever get your parts, and if so did they fix the problems?

For charging I have a ~12 volt and a ~54 volt charger built for this chemistry. My only concern is equalization while each 12 volt battery has it's own internal bms, the 4 is serial do not. I'm thinking I need some sort of equalizer/balancer but not finding any on the market for a 54 volt pack. for...

Old Shimano “333” hubs are weak and problematic even for pedal-only applications. It took at least a few months, but the one I was using on SB Cruiser to give me sort-of-usable pedal-only gearing started self-disassembling, even with only applying torque thru it to begin rolling the trike forward e...

If the motor did not have a controller before, and was simply switched on/off by the handle, then a controller with a throttle will allow you to control the startup surges, etc. (keeping in mind that if you start it up in the middle of high grass or other highly loaded situation, it will still draw ...

We are using a ESP32 to generate a DAC signal of between 1-3.6V This is sent to the Kelly Controller which has a TPS input choice of 0-5v or 1-4.5v Our signal works on either setting If you send a 1v signal to a controller expecting 0v for "off", then the controller will never stop trying to run th...

Good riddance, and a good motivation to do the work to adapt a product that actually has customer support, an open-source and more reliable OLED design, the esteemed Justin Le's Cycle Analyst. All too happy to support Justin instead, be able to use a shunt as a couloumb-meter, and use hardware swit...

Hi Amberwolf, are you planning to weld up a bakfiets frame yourself or will you get a tradesman to do it? If I ever do it, I'd build it myself like I have the rest of my bikes and trikes in the last decade or so. :) Dude, are you interested into taking orders ? Beeing looking for sometimes now for ...

FWIW, I'm one of those people having a harder and harder time getting up from any non-standing position. THe closer to aa "upright chair" sitting position I'm in, the easier it is, so that's why I use the seating style, height, and position I do on the SB Cruiser trike. As long as desired speeds are...

It would be great if you could override PAS by twisting the throttle. Well, it wont' do what *you* need it to do, in taht it doesn't override any limits, but the throttle *does* override PAS, in that if you engage the throttle at all, higher or lower than the PAS output result, the CA's throttle ou...

Above done a bit ago now. Sorry to all for disappearing; since returning to work after my two-month illness leave, I've been wiped out every day after work, just collapsing in bed when I get home after feeding the dogs (and sometimes myself), then getting back up to work the next day, rinse and repe...

I replaced the front tyre with a Schwalbe Marathon Plus as I was concerned about getting a flat and looked great. Rode great for a while but then the wire reinforcing split out the side and caused a flat - twice - so I gave up on it. No experience with that specific tire, but whenever I have had th...

I used to use a regular digital camera to video CrazyBike2's rides to various places around town, just to get some of the crazy / stupid things drivers do on camera so others could see what I had to deal with...but because its' a big cargo bike, I didn't get much of the behaviors compared to riding ...

Who sells hub motors with L10 connectors Besides Ebike.ca? in the USA? If you look at their connectors page, you can see the various types they use, and links to the connector companies themselves. That extra information on the connector itself may help you find other products using it. They do sel...

There's this from last year:

What happens to the battery voltage when this occurs?

Does anyone know if it's possible to set different speed limits for PAS and throttle? Not directly. You could create a preset for throttle use only, and a preset for PAS use only, and different speed limits/etc on each, and switch between them. The switching can be made automatic-ish by putting a s...

Or just power the CA off the "ignition" line to the controller. That way whenever the controller isn't getting power to it's brain, neither is the CA.

I don't know the specific answer, but these may help you (if you havent' already gone this path)

What exactly are the kP and kI settings for?

What other settings are related to them, and affect how the system operates when those two are changed?

I'd use the online chat at Mouser, Digikey, etc., and show them the pic and ask them which of their switches would replace those. I'm sure they can find you one pretty quick.

Before you change the controller, you can first just try setting your minimum throttle in the CA3's Throttle Out menu just a hair above what it takes to activate the motor.

The austin air unit is very basic and only has 3 speeds. I am considering replacing the motor drive with a PWM controller If it's like every ohter "three speed" motor I've worked on in wall-powered fan systems, then it's an induction motor with multiple windings, and the switch just engages them in...

I checked the no load Watts again and it is like you said, it goes up to around 200 watts as the rear wheel is spinning up then goes down to zero and stays there. I don't recall saying anything like that. So to be clear, the motor previously took 250 watts to spin it with no load. Now, something ha...

It's a 24V-10AH battery. I've had the bike for a few years and it worked fine. Then it *does* have a "riding range". Or at least, it did, when it "worked fine". When I just tried to ride it the other day is when I noticed this issue. Does this mean that the answer to the question: "Did it always ge...
