Thank you so much for this video. He correctly captures the anxiety and emotional rollercoaster involved in an EV build. The vid also demonstrates the challenges involved in making an EV build video that makes sense to both beginners and veterans of the home EV world. For example, he first checks resistance across the contactor, then doesn't say why or what the result was (at 1:35) (Or whether it's a PWM contactor used on Netgain builds) Then he says lets turn it on and hope it doesn't explode (2:00) Eventually, using an app he gets the motor spinning and all is well.
I'd love to see an update, hope it's been a lot of fun to ride. Can't believe you went down to 1 seat though! looks like the perfect cruiser for you & the wife, or you, the wife, and the baby :) Nice build, congrats on the success
Ive been wanting to get into my already tuned kelly controller as my low voltage is set at 68 so i can only get a quarter use of ny battery it only charges to around 82ish and only get to ride it down to 68 before it shuts off i know its not safe to lower them down to zero but im goin to at least run it down to 30/40% dont see why that would hurt its a 72v tuned electro and Co kit on a highly modded razor
How are you planning to balance the rear wheel? We've got an 8KW we've just put a tire on and are mounting on an '04 GS500F. None of the dealers or shops around know how to balance a hub motor and I don't want to go over about 30mph/50kph until it's safer to do so. Only credible way I've seen so far is to put some weight on and see how it changes, followed by lotsa rinse-'n-repeat. Nice video and project, btw. Looking forward to seeing ours run as well.
To my surprise, I haven't had any out-of-balance issues. But I haven't gotten it up to full speed yet. If there are issues at higher speeds, I want to try these balancing beads: www.common-motor.com/balance-bead-kit-honda-cb350-cl350-cb360-cl360-cj360-cb450-cl450-cb500-cb550
Hello friend, I have a KLS7212ST controller It is limited to a speed of 18 km/h I want to unlock unlimited What should I do ? Just change the motor rpm?
Hi, I have a hub motor from QSMOTOR D3000W-MH10029. The controller is from Taizhou Shengton Electronic JSH1-3000, can anyone give me a tip on how to program this controller?
Good question. I expected the rear wheel to be very unbalanced, however at all speeds there is no vibration issue from the rear! The normal means to balance a spoked wheel will not work with the wheel because it won't freely spin on a balancing stand, which would use gravity to spin the heaviest part of the wheel downward. So to balance a wheel like this, you could get these "balancing beads" that go inside the tire. While its spinning at speed, the beads will naturally travel to the side of the tire that needs more weight and will balance out the wheel. www.common-motor.com/balance-bead-kit-honda-cb350-cl350-cb360-cl360-cj360-cb450-cl450-cb500-cb550?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAkp6tBhB5EiwANTCx1EZIu2XpaHzlavIVtmtz3LooG7Zrk7k8ysY_g8Ivh5rXbytru9JPGRoCR1gQAvD_BwE
