BFSWXO2 36v (10) upgrade

[INSJBLM]

I'm looking for your help with a new bike build. I've found a bike for $150 that's missing the display, battery, and thumb throttle. It has 0 miles on it and the missing parts were taken for use on another conversion.

I currently have a new 52v 20ah reention dorado Samsung cell battery with a 40a BMS that I could use for this build, but I'm leaning towards picking up something smaller on sale.

My goal is to build something economical that is more capable than what's speced by Magnum. I'm looking for specific component recommendations (controller kits) and battery specs to bring this to life.

The must-haves are waterproof higo connections and plug-and-play with limited programming. I'm not looking for a GRIN type conversation.

Thanks for your help

Best bet is to find a Magnum display, but there are none on their website. If they don't sell them, you can get a KT controller/display with main harness and Julet connectors for around 100 bucks, I'd look fr 25A, and you probably have to put it in an external case. Might as well get the brake levers and PAS sensor too. They're cheap and they should have the right connectors. Better to spend 10 bucks vs splicing connectors.

I don't know much about Dorado replacements, but name brand cells are a must.

Grin is too spendy for me.

I have been trying to find a good source a KT waterproof controller display kits but can't find much, I'm looking for something in the 17 a range so I can fit it in the frame also wondering if I need to stick to 36v or if I can go to 48?

Any suggestions?
