I can be patient! Just knowing it's a possibility is huge! Thank you!At this point, if we dont get the Helios out, we may not even have a business !
We are working with a provider for the BBSHD - but probably Q4 at the earliest for any new controllers.
Cool. Same reason I like when people buy BMW. More work ($$$) for me
All I see on their website is conversion kits. I already have a motor. I just want a controller. An integrated controller. Not interested in tacking anything else on to the exterior of the bike. It feels too cluttered as is.Since X1 controller isn't available at the moment..
Have you tried HPC?
High Performance Electric Bikes Made in the USA
Hi Power Cycles manufactures a complete lineup of high performance electric bikes made here in the USA including the Revolution, Scout and Titan. We also offer custom made in the USA battery systems and complete electric bicycle conversion kits. We are the leaders in bike innovation and technology!hpcbikes.com
I believe they have integrated 2000W controller and externally mounted 2500W controller.
https://www.california-ebike.com .. I have spoken with Tom and Doug both. They run a good business.
Yeah I contacted Luna about getting their controller. Their response "have to buy a bike or at least the motor from us to get the controller"Luna has their Ludicrous V2 controller for the BBSHD but I’m anxious to see what Pushkar comes up with. May have to do a Watt Wagons Buzzraw X
Interesting, I know of several people who have purchased just the controller.
I have too but that was also a couple years ago. Must be a new policy
.
That's 1560W, you need more ?Ok thanks for that image
Frankly I'm not interested in trying to convince someone to sell me something, they apparently don't want to sell. I'd rather wait for Pushkar to develop something.
In the meantime since I have some time to kill before there is a WW BBSHD X1, anyone on here know about cracking open some hardcase batteries and switching in high amp BMS? Seems I hit more and more road blocks the deeper I dive in to this endeavor. Turns out my dual 52v batteries only have BMS with peak 30a
Well I have that newer bbshd controller firmware that caps max amps at 28 not 30. Also the controller has nominal voltage of 48v (I have tried changing those settings with a programming cable and the software but it will not let me alter it). Not really certain but I'm under the impression my motor is somewhat neutered by the controller. My goal of getting a stronger controller to increase power now had a new curve ball as I found out earlier today my batteries' BMS are rated for 30a peak. Which from my understanding means even if I get a better controller I'm still being held back by the batteries.
Are you running the batteries in parallel? If so the amp load should be spread between the two batteries.Ok thanks for that image

They would have to be parallel right? Running them in series would equate to 104v. You bring up a good point I had forgotten about. Thank you. 2 batteries in parallel each with 30 amp peak discharge equals 60amps peak discharge. I'm back to square one again! Ok @pushkar whenever you are ready I got some money set aside
I would start out slow, say 35 amps and the increase it gradually. I like to keep a 10amp buffer for any spikes that may occur.They would have to be parallel right?
