I need some help with mine bro .Brentford area
What width and thickness of nickel strip are you using on that nw 21700 pack? Those look pretty beefy nice dude
Each series connection has 11 strips of 10mm x 0.2mm nickel ⚡️ it’s serious over kill as we are only pairing it to the mini sabvoton 72v 45A but always nice to have the extra amp handling even if it’s not used 🙏
@@KiloVoltBikes Yooo dude .. I was thinking about getting their Trike, and upgrading the crap out of it. It should be fun. 3 wheels = 3 motors, and a lot of space to add a big battery. What do u think bro?
@@fightsandfinance7570 sounds like an awesome plan , We have seen pics of the 3 wheeler Citycoco’s but never seen one in person . Would be interested to know if it’s still hub powered
Wow, I’m chatting while watching, and those series connections are basically dangerous
We are shocked that this is the factory standard pack 😳 60v 35a via 2 strips of rusty nickel plated steel
@@KiloVoltBikes I wish this wasn’t true
@@KiloVoltBikes in any case, that’s why you do what you do. Thank you brother for taking care of that fortunate client 🙌🏽
@@bricklithium6865 we think exactly the same - Better battery = more fun
@@bricklithium6865 🙏
Sorry not to sure if this might be or if it is off topic but i got a question.
My bike as the one your modifying won’t go past 30mph not to sure if I’ve pressed something and the system accepted it as a code if some sort because it is locked there and it used to go 60 now it’s half that like on a safety type mode for kids.
Can you help me brother, I’d really appreciate it any info on the matter would be perfect!
Not sure without seeing it - depends on the make and model
Recognize this guy is the future
How much for that battery you built? Sent to Las Vegas?
Thanks for the comment . Please send us an email to . Sales@kilovoltbikes.com
That battery wtf!! That scooter won't know what has hit it when you finish with it 🤘💯
Honestly can’t wait to see it moving 💨
Someone gave me a Citycoco fat tire scooter and I would like to have it service , but no one does that work here where I live. The scooter runs, but it quits working after 15 minutes. I unplugged all the cords and now I want to put it back together and I don’t know how.
Any recommendations?
Do you have any idea of what needs to be replaced?
Thanks in advance!
Where are you based . If the scooter fails after a short time I would think it’s something to do with the battery . If you can remove the battery and send it in to us we can repair it for you
@@KiloVoltBikes Thanks, bro. I am located in the US. After a lot of work and research I just decided that it is not worth my time. Thanks again!
@@Leo_Arango where are you at? I'm in Las Vegas
@@armenvegas Thanks, man. I gave it away because I ain't got time to deal with this. It was a tough decision... I tried to find a place or someone to fix it but no one wants to work on these scooters because you can't find parts or it is less expensive to buy a new one.
Will these 60v hub motors take 72v long term?
Yes they will - Motors have a KV which is basically a point at which any extra power will be converted into heat - this motor is well within its KV still as the motor doesnt get hot and the rpm increased from 60v .
If there was no increase in RPM and the motor started getting warm then we'd have a problem
So it will perform with more torque...My 60v 12ah....fully charged stops suddenly..then after powering it off for a minute and power's back on fully charged again....Only go's of under a load...with me riding in it..
Cool video Tosse mate see you soon mate 👍
Yo i did the same thing. Lol
Hey brother do you have a fb? If so what is it? If not what’ other platform I could contact you

Ah will be sweet with the sabvaton
Can I put a 72v battery on the stock controller...
No
Kilovolt Lithium
😉
Q for you mate, I have a 72v E-Scooter battery that shows full charge on fase tester, and only works when power cable is connected. Theres 2 controllers, one front, one back.. spaghetti junction the wiring is. The power cables coming from controllers are very rigid, and it only runs when charger cable is connected. Can you help, im absolutely banjoed on this!! Dont know if battery is knackered, or both controllers are kaput. When charger is connected, it almost immediately switches lights to charged, but wont switch on, on its own power...... only with power cord. Agggggggggghhhhhh 🥴
I would say it’s probably a battery issue if it all works plugged into the charger
@@KiloVoltBikes Thanks mate 👍 Is there a booster charger that can bring levels up? Or is dismantling the battery the only way forward 🤔 Ive been trying to fool the BMS by leaving lights on, and the charger works then. But can't tell if its charging battery, or just powering lights🙃 Is there a way i can check this. Big thanks for taking the time to read this 👍
Hi, i am using Sabvoton controllers, it's good, and i would like to test far driver controllers now, seems to be better specs, do you know this controllers ? have you an opinion ? thx :)
the fardrivers are extremely powerful controllers - we are going to do a Sabvoton Vs Fardriver video soon
@@KiloVoltBikes I will try it soon also :) on Sur-ron
Bon travail good job 👍
First thing I noticed only two series connections
The battery we pulled out this scooter explained using only emojis = 🤮😩🤣
Damn you know your shit .
Thank you sir
You must be in my head or summat i been looking at them debating 96v dualtron or 96v moped with 8kw hub
We will make sure we take it for a decent test ride and review how it performs
@@KiloVoltBikes heres a tip fella jaguar i pace 12× 60ah lg chem pristmatics 3s 4p config so im going to get 2 modules for 24s worth, charge at 1c 60amp discharge 4c 240amp very little heat out of them.
I can get mine £600 im sure if i had a matching order id get the 4 modules for a grand.
@@ianhill20101 they sound like the freelander cells LEV46 cells , prismatic cells which come in modules ect . They are great for when you have enough space to fit them in . This floor pan for the scooter is only 85mm deep so not much prismatic cells that would squeeze in . We have a super bike and a quad coming soon that may feature such cells
@@KiloVoltBikes look forward to seeing your superbike effort ill keep you in my loop fella keep the building strong, lloks like you habe a blaze and a blast in that shop good times enjoy fella im blazeing away nw soldering lol.
Sabvatron, lol
ooooooook **thumbs up**
@@KiloVoltBikesyou got some sick rides dude
