    Molicel P42A, Sony/Murata US18650VTC5D in 14s5p battery packs sounds like a good deal?

    I pulled the batteries out of the 2 packs I bought. These are molicell batteries? Are they missing the sleeve that is normally wrapped around them or is there some sort of metal shell over them. It's so easy to short this battery out. Can I clean the old welds off and spot weld onto these?

    The metal blades where the battery connects to the robot is what's holding it in. I used a pry bar to pry them down through the slots and then worked it slowly out pry on the corners. I ruined the blades though.

    Fat Bike High Power Motor options (3000W+)

    This is wicked! Though it's pretty expensive. I was looking at this one and it seems like a good option. I did not realize that QS Motor sells the 205 with an option for 175mm dropout. I think I can put a 5 or 7 speed freewheel on it, though he claimed in the email that he has not heard of...

    The Final Form?

    The reason for the fat bike frame is simply this, I want a 7 speed freewheel on a QS 205. As for the tires, I have no comment because I have never used 4" fat tires. The plan is to try 4" tires first, but the rear rim that I am lacing to the motor will be 65mm so I can fit smaller sizes if I...

    QSMOTOR,0.5-12kW Electric Hub Motor & Mid Drive Motor Manufacture China

    Thank you for the reply, what is the best way to talk to somebody about buying this motor? I sent an email to your address but have not yet seen a reply. Also, is the QS 260 also available with a 175mm dropout?

    Fat Bike High Power Motor options (3000W+)

    Hey guys, I've been looking for a motor to put on a fat bike frame with 190mm rear dropout. It seems that NBPower sells one on AliExpress, they replied to my email claiming the 5000w motor is 50H, can produce 120nm of torque, and the 3T version has a kv of 11.9, 4T version has a kv of 10.5...

    Grins All Axle V3 Fat Bike Motor

    https://ebikes.ca/blog/post/45mm-fat-deposits.html What do you guys think about this motor? 45mm magnets, 205 or 212 rotor diameter (not sure which). Maybe it will be rated around 2000 watt? In the motor simulator, it might be comparable to the XOFO DD45. I have the QS 205 on my fat bike...

    Finding the correct spokes and rim for the QS 205 hub motor

    Following up on this, I used M3 washers to keep the spoke heads from slipping out of the flange holes. Wheel works great on the regular 13/14ga spokes, though I want to try and put a 7 speed freewheel on this motor. It's only meant to have a single speed, so i need to also put a spacer on...

    Finding the correct spokes and rim for the QS 205 hub motor

    Hello guys, I got my hands on the QS 205 hub motor, and the flange holes for the spokes are 4.2mm in diameter. I want to build it into a 700c wheel, my ideal tire size is about 700 X 47c. I am going to build it using the Sapim single butted 13/14ga spokes bought from ebikes.ca, I already have...

    Dual motor setup with a Kelly KLS motor controller?

    EDITED: An update. The answer is no, the Kelly KLS motor controllers are not torque based controllers. When throttle is applied, the controller appears to map that throttle input to a desired wheel speed and not a desired torque. There does not seem to be an option to change this. I read...

    Any tangible benefit of upgrading from L10 Baserunner to Phaserunner controller?

    You can use the motor calculator to find out what Inanek mentioned, but instead of using thier preset motor controller options, select a custom contoller instead. Then set the controllers phase amps (90 for phaserunner, 70 or baserunner), and heres the key part, set the battery amps to whatever...

    Place to share Grin controller configs/tunes?

    Hey I read that article and thats awesome that you got it working. I had the same problem with my front motor cutting out at a faster speed. It was interesting because my motor would start to hum and make a weird sound just before the controller faulted out. I learned that this problem is...

    Dual motor setup with a Kelly KLS motor controller?

    Hi amberwolf, thank you for the helpful links. I have a pair of front and rear ezee geared hub motors bought from ebikes.ca about 6 months ago, I'm not sure how many amps those motors are rated for. I have the pole pairs set to 80 and did run the autotune process for the phaserunner, then...
