Hello members of Endless Sphere!
TL;DR is below
I'm having a lot of trouble with those stupid speed limit functions in each controller. :? When I first bought an e-bike conversion kit with a motor rated for 48V and 1000W, it came with a controller which had a 20mph speed limit integrated, and there were no output wires which I could short or disconnect to disable the speed limit. The ebay seller from whom I bought this kit claimed the motor could easily reach 28mph (45kmh) on full power without peddling, but it can't since the speed is limited to 20mph. This annoyed me, I've been searching for ways to disable the speed limit since I got my kit and invested a lot of hours into it. (Removing the controller from the bike, opening it, trying something (short x with y, disconnect a from b etc.) put controller back together, install it into my bike again, test it, remove again etc.) Recently I bought a new controller which had a lot more output wires, and I was sure there was a way to disable the speed limit on this controller before I bought it, since there were so many wires and features etc.. Now I tested out everything and the most I managed to achieve from this controller was setting the speed limit to 23,5mph (38kmh) with the 3 speed function (I set it to 120%), but I'd love to have the speed limit completely gone, and have more freedom.
It's obvious that the speed is limited, because my motor always stops going further than 20mph / 23,5mph, even when I'm peddling as fast as possible (The more I'm peddling the less wattage is consumed by the motor. I have a wattmeter installed to monitor it constantly.) If anyone here knows or owns controllers rated at 48V 1000-1500W with an easy option to disable the speed limit completely, it'd be nice if I can get some recommendations and links. Thank you.
TL;DR: I'm searching for a good 48V 1000-1500W controller (with Hall Sensors) which has an option to disable the speed limit, or better, does not have a speed limit at all.
Greetings,
