10 W
I'm building a 2wd ebike at the moment, with a bafang/8fun SWXK5 in front, and a bafang/8fun SWXH in the rear, identical winds and gear ratios, both will be oil cooled and run well above rated power, and as such I want to install a temperature sensor.
However CAv3's only have 1 temperature sensor pad, and the rear SWXH has cabling through shaft and so adding a sensor will be difficult. The SWXK5 on the other hand has a large bearing and through face plate wiring, and will be easy to add a sensor to, and so I would like to just be able to install a sensor in the front and call it a day.
I would assume heating would be equal (or the front would heat slightly faster, due to the lower mass and lower surface area to radiate heat outwards), and so monitoring just the one motor would be sufficient to ensure I don't cook them, although I don't have any experience with 2wd bikes, or the contention that might be experienced.
Can anyone with some experience chime in on the issue?
