    Tim. You gotta do a 100 percent to dead test on mode 2 with dual motors the whole way. I think that’s the way most people would ride the King GT. I know that’s what feels good to me more 2-3 is good. Thank you. Keep up the good vids.

    Hi Tim, I did a comparison of range with single vs dual motor using a different scooter and found that the difference in range was negligible. The benefit of using dual motors is that it places less strain on the motors and provides better top speed and hill climbing performance whilst achieving very similar range to using single motor. A number of other people have conducted the same test with their scooters and arrived at the same outcome. Nice review as always 👍🏻, jealous of the hot weather as it’s winter here in Oz. I personally don’t like the horizontal thumb throttle as it isn’t as ergonomic as a vertical thumb throttle, trigger throttle or twist throttle.

    • @TimsElectric
      @TimsElectric  2 роки тому +1

      @Daney Zidaney I think you're right...the physics of it makes sense to me ...that the difference would be negligible if any at all. ..however sharing the load with the other motor would for sure take some strain off the single motor and of course keep the temperature down on the controller...I just didn't like spinning the tires at every stop sign :)
      I think I can adjust the P settings to get it to be less robust off the line...and also if I can figure out cruise control I'll do it again and go further :)

    You can set cruise control on automatic or manual. Automatic is when you hold trottle more than 3 sec in same speed, manual is hold speed steady an hold minus button 3 sec
    That you can set in advanced meni when you turn on scooter in first 10 sec hold M you will enter in advanced meni. If you wait more than 10 sec after turn on scooter then just will reset trip.

    Yeah the acceleration as set up from the factory in dual motor mode is insanely dumb, especially in "2". Gotta modify those "gears" under assistant mode to be less intense. Also yeah you gotta set up cruise control and other little niceties in the advanced settings which are a bit tricky to get into.

    @christopherhiatt9236 5 місяців тому

    I picked up a Wolf King GT Pro in October and had been skeptical of their range claims. I took a ride in the Silver Comet Trail that goes from Smyrna, GA to the Alabama State line. For this trip I left Smyrna and went to Rockmart, GA then returned to Smyrna again. Once back I rode around locally a few more miles. I begrudgingly kept it in ECO mode the entire trip. I left with 82.4v in the battery and returned with 67.9 with 85.1 total miles ridden. Based on voltage I'm guessing another 10-15 miles could be squeezed out. I'm also 220lbs.

If I can get 90 miles with a little left I'm going to try the full trail ride from Weaver, AL to Smyrna, GA. That will be about 92 miles. Once back to Smyrna I'll keep riding locally until it shuts off. I'd love to be able to say I broke 100 miles on a single charge on an e-scooter between two states.

    @UchihaSumairu 2 роки тому +2

    The only down side is this scooter doesn't save settings for you after power down... It's so dumb as I'd love to stay in power 3 all the time with a lower "low end" power. This way acceleration is less terrifying with dual motor. Well that and the rear suspension but you can upgrade it for heavier riders for like 20 dollars or something.
    I have the red and black one. I love this thing. You can hit pretty high speeds single motor power level 2/3. Slower acceleration but that isn't always a bad thing. If you really wanna go nuts change it to dual motor 2/3 and hit 50 mph pretty consistantly. and 0-40 is fast as heck especially on 3. 4 and 5 you have no need for unless you are going 50-60mph. It feels VERY safe the entire time even at really high speeds. Usually on other scooters even the Nami it feels wabbly at high speeds. this doesn't.

      Dual motor or single motor makes almost no difference to range in practical terms.
      Also in dual motor you have less wear and tear than in single motor as the energy is distributed between both motors.

      It's not recommended that you go to a dead battery...it can cause lots of issues.
      I'll be doing another one very soon...next time fingers crossed it'll be close to 20% :)
      Cheers

      @@TimsElectric Hi Tim, with these modern scooters, you can't actually go to dead battery, 0 volts. The battery management system have a safe battery cut out voltage of around 3.0v per cell, and won't let you go lower than this. As you start getting close to that voltage, the controller will start to reduce power. This give you a warning that you're close to shutdown. And then once around the 3.0v per cell, all power is cut to the motors. So you will have 0% of usable power left, or display show that the battery is flat with the bars, but this is not a dead battery/0 volts. Discharging below 3.0v is where the damage happens, and the BMS and motor controller won't let you. Cheers!

      Me personally I have a full face with a flip up front so when going in shops I don't have to take the whole helmet of , I bought mine for £49.99 of eBay , all safety certified (called Vader) only a cheap one but will protect my head better than a cycle helmet , stay safe .
