    Upgading from 24v sla to 36v lithium

    Wow a test ride with my bbs 36v battery jury rigged was a revelation.Like a new machine compared to the 24v sla.Flew along and peddled with ease up steep inclines, that would have blown my kneecaps off with the 24v. With my bbs i just use the top PAS 4 an 5. So apart from a volt meter for...

    Upgading from 24v sla to 36v lithium

    Thanks d8veh that looks ideal. i can change connector ends easily enough.i wonder if it has the wires to add a throttle.The missus loved the one on my bbs01.Knowing her shed prob never use the PAS.

    Upgading from 24v sla to 36v lithium

    As d8veh suggested earlier.As having no multple PAS it may be better to get a replacement controller with this function and also connections for adding a throttle.Can anyone point me in the right direction for an inexpensive one of the correct type. Its a 200w brushless rear hub motor, runnning...

    Upgading from 24v sla to 36v lithium

    Your right on both counts . i did some tests.With both reds connected together it works perectly.Leaving the thinner ignition out,nothing.I havent tried temporarily fitting the other bikes batt for a test ride yet,but the wheel is certainly spinning with 50% more power /speed. Several places...

    Upgading from 24v sla to 36v lithium

    Thanks d8veh.The missus will only want one level of assist...MAXIMUM. If thats an ignition wire ,its activated by the switch on the battery ,which is the bikes on off switch. Just the way they designed it i guess.If i buy a 36v batt like the one i bought from eclipse bikes,which has a on /off...

    Upgading from 24v sla to 36v lithium

    Thanks d8veh for the advice. So far so good .Ive go a few final questions before deciding wether to fork out on a battery. The pos an neg are obvious as ive noticed the 2nd red to batt terminals is a bit thinner and for some reason has a spade connection halfway along it.So do i just tape the...

    Upgading from 24v sla to 36v lithium

    Its quite a small diameter about 5" maybe the brushless type? The controller has nothing printed on it,just a small metal box 4" x 2.5".A group a 5 thin wires and a group of 3 thicker ones go from the motor to it as well as the PAS sensor wires..3 thick wires come out to battery connections, a...

    Upgading from 24v sla to 36v lithium

    I fancy a little project for my missus.Before i converted my mountain bike with a bbs01 i used to poodle about for years on an old electric bike someone gave me.Its a dutch bike, totally the look that a woman wld like (used to sometimes feel a bit self conscious). It has a 200w rear hub,20...

    Bbs01 power cutting in out at startup

    What sort of tweaks are valuable furdulike.Ive read so many threads on what to change it makes my head spin.I thought the kit performed well out of the box.But then i read its factory set to this 'keep current' 60 % and some say 20% .But people say it will climb hills much better set at...
