1000 watt ARCHON X1 CONTROLLER

[IOUZIP]

I am not able to find reviews of people who have compared the stock M620 motor to a 1000 watt ARCHON X1 CONTROLLER upgrade. How much better is the acceleration? If someone could point me to some reviews that would be great. $1,000 for the upgrade is pretty expensive. I have a new Luna X1 750w and want more climbing power.

@IOUZIP - Did you even bother to use the forums search tool (or Google?)? A forum search on “Archon X1” results in 10 pages of search results...
Else please read the info from Innotrace...

Better acceleration would not be the reason for the Archon controller.

@IOUZIP, I found a big difference between the stock M620 and the Archon X1 Controller. The acceleration is quicker without feeling jerky, and the range is almost double what I use to go on a single 52v 17.5ah battery. Here's my review regarding the range: https://electricbikereview.com/forums/members/iouzip.39915/

The X1 has the M600 which is less powerful and the controller will not work on it, also I am not sure you can purchase the motor and it will fit.
I believe that Pushkar is working on a Innotrace solution for the M600 but I am not sure how far way it is. It's rated at 500w and 120nm from Bafangs website, yet Luna says up 2000w and only 95nm which makes no sense.

I noticed the 2000w on Luna's website and thought the same.

The Luna X1 has a $300 upgrade for the motor when you purchase the bike. Have you reached out to Luna to see how they can help?

I don’t think they change the controller I think it’s just programming. From other threads I have read it’s not a winner. Very uneven and hard to ride.
