I just wired up my new controller and sometimes when I turn the bike on like once every several tries the motor will randomly spin and won't stop until I turn off the bike. Turn back on the bike and the problem is gone, repeat this and like I said every several tries sometimes it will just...
I see. Yeah I don't want to do anything crazy at all.. I literally just want to connect a battery to a controller without dying or anything catching fire lol, not funny those things could happen but yeah
I plan on drastically reducing the amps the controller supplies to the motor. Probably like 35amps max. I don't need any higher as 35 is more than enough torque
Yeah I know working on the controller positive and negative is fine, no voltage. Just a little worried about working on the battery positive and negative. I guess I could cut one wire at a time from the battery
I mean it's a 72v battery inside of wrapping inside a bag that was professionaly made. I'm not messing with anything besides trying to replace the connector to the controller.
I bought some XT90s anti spark with pigtails. Soldering isn't that hard. The only thing that scares me is messing with the battery end, what happens if I accidentally touch positive and negative from the battery? Asking since I need to cut off the XT60 end and make XT90 end.
So my battery and my controller have 2 different connectors. Controller is using ring terminals and my battery is using xt60. How do I go about connecting them together? Xt60 male and solder my own ring terminals on the end or? I have no idea how thick the wires are, battery seems like 12awg but...
72x80=5760 peak watts. I am wondering if that's fine? Obviously if not going full throttle for crazy amounts of time.
The biggest down side would be draining my battery faster from acceleration?
You don't take a motorcycle off-road or on sidewalks/bike lanes. But yeah. I just want to cruise around on back roads/some off road and in the city. Bike trails as well.
