100 W
I have this 48V 1000W kit from ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/48V1000W-26...-Conversion-/371289491857?hash=item5672940991
I want to see how far I can push it.
Opened up the controller, it has 12 fets labeled 80nf70 and the big caps are 63v 470uf.
photos of the controller innards can be found here (not my pics but same exact controller) https://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=68634
looks like the fets are rated 68v and 98a? http://www.st.com/web/en/resource/technical/document/datasheet/CD00276203.pdf
Let's say I wanted to run 16S lipo and modify the controller to increase the max amps to around 35-40. Could it be done? that's around 2200-2500W peak.
solder on the shunt for more amps? i can monitor amps with a wattmeter wired up to my bike
Beef up the phase/power wires in the controller and going into the motor? I doubt I could fit anything thicker than 12 or 14 awg through the axle, but I haven't checked it yet. I have some 10awg wire to use everywhere else.
how do I adjust the LVC/undervoltage protection if I want to go to 16s?
i think i will have to do some cooling mods on the motor. holes in the motor shell and insulating varnish sprayed on the inside? beefed up phase wires?
I realize I could just get a new controller but I'm kind of interested to see how far I can push this controller/motor in the name of SCIENCE.
