Using KT 35 A Controller + Display on Aventure

[Rob55]

Has anyone done this?
Do the connecters fit?
Are there instructions available?

Am I correct this modification will work with an external controller mount and a splice of the battery connector?

I looked into doing exactly what you want to do. The motor has an L1019 connector on the Aventure. Rewiring that and all the other connectors to fit the KT was more than what I wanted to dig into. Of course it can be done, but that's beyond my interest or expertise at this time. Grin Tech. has controllers (with L1019) and a display too, but they are very much DIY and expensive. Aventon really missed the boat with their stock controller settings. PAS is horrible. As you know, there is long delay in assist on both the throttle and pedal.

 

[Rob55]

Much more expensive.
Has anyone used this controller on an aventure?

I have mostly installed the 35 Amp controller from electrobikeworld.com. It's weather proof and huge! Had to order different parts and wires to make it work.

Did you get this going? How is it compared to stock?

Nice work. Can you share details of how you did the conversion?

I can confirm the KT controllers work with Aventon motors. Tbh, I also did the change but reverted back to the stock controller, I didn't like the feel of it. I like the more 'moped' type of ride.

I think I saw your thread on the Level thread? Were the connections plug and play or did you have to cnage out the connectors? What was the amp on the kt controller and did it fit back into the stock location?

Yes, it was plug and play but I needed to extend some of the cables.
Got this to extend the motor cable: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08B1SGXB6/
Got this to extend the PAS I think: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B09Q8PTSDF/
The controller I got was ordered directly from China, it was a KT 6 MOSFETS Controller (06A) and it was a tight fit but it fit! I just didn't like the feel.

Thanks. What was it about the feel didn't you like? Did you adjust the tune in the KT controller?

My wife does not like the fact the stock controller feels. It surges with too much power at once, even on pas 1. Also, I was looking lower the pedal revolution to start introducing some power.

Edit:
Looking at the specs of the kt 6 mofset, it looks like it's a 20a peaking at 960 watts. The aventure is 750w an peaks over 1000 watts. Dot know if it would work

I prefer the surge! I might’ve not adjusted the setting properly but maybe I was too used to the original, this is my first e-bike.

Where you able to get the lights to work with the controller?

No, I couldn’t. I just connected some directly to the battery.
