    Any way to slow my scooter way-the-heck down?

    let's see ... yes, you are right, i heard back from the seller and the levels do indeed refer to PAS. good call and catch! as to the halls: i don't think i have them connected at all, and at this point, i hate to go looking back into the wiring if i can help it. also: i am not at all...

    Any way to slow my scooter way-the-heck down?

    tried the limiter wire. it slowed the scooter way down, maybe even too much. at the same time, the throttle dead zone increased to about half the total, if not a bit more. i'm 7/10 flummoxed. ordered some more pots to do as TC suggests above, though if the motor isn't using halls, i'm not...

    Any way to slow my scooter way-the-heck down?

    i'll see about the halls. and will see if i can get at the limiter wire today. maybe order a new throttle from amazon, too, and see if that has an effect.

    Any way to slow my scooter way-the-heck down?

    could the problem be my motor has bad halls, which is does, and the controller/led is made for both hall and without hall and i'm operating without halls? man, i am totally lost, not to mention confused. and dazed.

    Any way to slow my scooter way-the-heck down?

    okay, this is what i ended up getting. cut the ground wires on the throttle, attached the ends to the middle and righter-most connection points. it does somewhat help the take off to be a bit less herky jerky, which is nice, but the top speed is still the same, way too fast for me. was the...

    Any way to slow my scooter way-the-heck down?

    no other throttles but i ordered the trimmer pot so we'll see how that works in a few days. thanks ....

    Any way to slow my scooter way-the-heck down?

    thanks for that. i'll try the white wire limiter and see what that does. meanwhile, if possible, could you give me an amazon link to the appropriate resister ... and perhaps to a different throttle that i might try?

    Any way to slow my scooter way-the-heck down?

    so, yes, the controllers are different, as is the LED. as to being cheap, could be but the package i linked to has been used successfully by people here. one thing i'm wondering is why the three speed modes are not working -- they're all the same. is that a wiring issue i can correct? i just...

    Any way to slow my scooter way-the-heck down?

    it's a bafang motor, one of the so-called jump ones, connected to this: 24V/36V 350W 6MOSFET ebike Electric Bicycle Brushless Motor Controller with LED. seems to me the resistor idea is the cheapest and easiest solution. what resistor should i look for, if indeed that's the way i should go?

    Any way to slow my scooter way-the-heck down?

    i replaced the motor on my ebike -- it had bad halls -- with an identical motor, along w/ a new controller. has the same battery. but now the thing goes like a bat out of hell, no matter i choose slow mode or fast. the moment i give the throttle a nudge, the motor jerks a few times then...
