I have a 48V 15Ah sunthing battery. The motor and controller came from EM3EV. The problem I am having is the heat. The controller gets so hot that I can't touch it. I just burned through my second plug on the battery. What is causing this problem? I think the motor size fits the battery size (I think its a 500W engine) Could it be the result of not having wired my bike with the right gauge wire? The wire I used to wire the bike up is a different gauge than the wires coming off the battery...a smaller gauge. That might account for the plug melting, but would that also be the reason for the controller getting so hot?
Thanks for your help
