    A FRESH START

    My batteries are Turnigy 5000mAh 6 cell 20-30C discharge 22.2v I have used two in series and another two in parallel but lately just one series pack The parallel arrangement often gives preferential use of one series set and as they get older one cell discharges down to less than 3.8v on one...

    A FRESH START

    After bad experience with two bafang BBSO2 motor kits, controllers and LCD's,I've decided to start again from scratch. I'm looking for advice from forum members to decide which mid drive kit to buy. I'm looking primarily looking for reliability for use on road and mild off road use, not down...

    Just checked voltage at 5 pin connector to lcd With alignment arrow at 12 o'clock and numbering anti clockwise, I get 40 v between 1 an 3 and 1.8 v between 1 and 2 Back to over voltage, I only use two 5C LiPo's so fully charged voltage can only be 2x21 v If the fuse you refer to is an inline...

    Thanks for your swift reply As I said I connected the Andesen black/red fixed pairs of connectors as I have for three years. It is difficult to connect red to black. Looking at them now one black and one red of the set I used on holiday, is lightly pitted, but you say this would be the result...

    ARE HIGH WATT 36V BAFANG MOTORS BEING PHASED OUT?

    Thanks Pete, I think that's the wisest way. 45v batteries are ridiculous cost I'll get the postage under way

    ARE HIGH WATT 36V BAFANG MOTORS BEING PHASED OUT?

    Thanks Spanos If 350w motor puts out 600w, what do 500w put out Cannot find 500w motor from BMS Swapped LCD's around and first one is fried, but if I buy the replacement parts and motor is fried, that's £140 down the grid

    ARE HIGH WATT 36V BAFANG MOTORS BEING PHASED OUT?

    After my abortive ebike sale I now find myself in a dilema of how to proceed. (See my post of 23 April 2018, if you are bored) I have had trouble locating a 36v 500w controller (CPU) and even complete 36v/500w kits, and I'm wondering if these higher power motors are being phased out for 36v...

    BAFANG BBSO2 MOTOR PROBLEM

    Cheers that's great With the motor out as at the 6 minute point on video, could I test the motor windings by applying 36v to these leads. As posted the other day my dilemma now is to replace controller and LCD not being sure the motor is OK This morning the sale was cancelled with compensation...

    BAFANG BBSO2 MOTOR PROBLEM

    Yes with hindsight I did'nt emphasize the risk of making the wrong connections to multiple sets of batteries. Charging with my GT Power is pretty fool proof if he does'nt short the batteries and they won't be on the bike. But absolutely right about the cadence but in this case I don't think that...
