Where did you get that HiGo adaptor from and what about the 4 extra pins in that connector if the battery only has 2 conductors? Are they just left open/unconnected?
I have the Joysi version of that triangle battery on my bike. My bike triangle is so large that I was able to fit a shark style battery pack and mount underneath it. I was only able to put one bolt in the battery mount so I had to daisy chain some zip ties around the lower battery. On the Joysi battery I had to get creative with the lower Velcro straps to get them to loop around the bottom of the frame but they also help hold the bottom battery in place. I have those 2 batteries in parallel using the T connector version of the wire you're using and those are hooked up to the controller for the rear motor. I have a 3rd battery pack on the back of the bike that's hooked up to a front motor kit. I want to get a 4th battery pack to parallel with the rear battery but I don't enough money right now. As it is I can squeeze about 40 miles of range out of my setup. My bike tops out at about 31 mph. Just a little heads up, with your 2 batteries in parallel, the 73 battery will still power the bike even if the other battery is not functioning. I would suggest that you turn the batteries on individually and try them out to make sure that they operate independently before you assume that they are both functioning in parallel.
you can use a 48v charger to charge the 52v battery and it will make it the right voltage when charged. the big NO NO is using a charger of higher voltage than the battery. NEVER do that but a slightly lower voltage charger is safe.
Thanks again for all your videos, truly giving free knowledge and help. My 73 Rx has a 48volt 20 amp hour custom battery from Brick Batteries, he made me a wire harness to parallel the stock and custom battery. Hooked it up, no work. There is no on and off switch on the Brick battery, so I believe the constant power is the problem. I'm going to make a on and off switch for it. And make sure the Rx battery is on first, I think that's the problem. If you think of anything please give a shout, thanks again, ride on, John from All Well Coffee.
Thanks for the support brother! Yes definitely that’s your problem you have to have the stock battery on first⚡️⚡️⚡️🔋🔋 also make sure you turn off the stock battery last when you’re done riding….. don’t forget your bike shuts off after five minutes.. so if the top battery shut off and the bottom battery is left on…. Before you can turn on the top battery you have to let the controller reset for about five minutes🔋
@@SHREDDIEMCSKATE that is what I thought. You are the man.. In like two weeks I am heading down S.C. to my parents place.. would love to meet ,maybe take a ride.. later .. ALL WELL .
So what happened to utilizing the Battery Blender from Spark Cycleworks to fix the issue of running two different battery voltages at the same time on the bike and getting longer range and power on your e-bike
Quick question. Can I run a 72 v battery and the stock battery on the rx ? Without upgrading the motor? Or what’s the biggest battery I can use on a rx ?
One of the things of the things I do when I need range and too lazy to match the voltage, I power up with both. After the screen lights up and gives a reading I turn off the main battery. Screen goes out but I am able to still throttle.
How do you know your extended range without actually measuring it? I hooked up a 52V, but the computer doesn't know there's an extra 52V / 18Ah battery connected in parallel. WOuld love to find a way to get the range meter to work accurately again.
I’ve done 64 miles on this set up…. And remember if you’re doing a 52 V battery the 73 has a 48 V so charge that 52 V battery up to 54.6 V…. I’d recommend getting a second 48 V…. Always go off you voltage
@@SHREDDIEMCSKATE , but your controller display still reads super low lie mine does right? I drained the 52V battery to match the 54.6V on the stock then connected it. Now I just charge with the Super73 charger only so the 52V won't get charged up to 59 again until I change the controller out. I probably got another 1-2 mph on the to speed, but dying for the range in miles to display the actual range with 2nd battery.
@@SHREDDIEMCSKATE yea, I have a 52V 18AH in parallel with the 48V stock battery & I just connected the fully charge 52V (59V) down to 54.5V by connecting it to a heat lamp lol After the voltages were equal I powered up the bike with just the stock battery (otherwise it won't turn on and you'll need to wait like 5 min for the stock controller to reset if I forgot to disconnect the new battery before starting) After it's powered up I connect the new battery (XT60) and I actually get a 2 more mph on it running flat. So, for the record, your range display still shows the original miles after adding the battery?
Controller is probably programed to only handle a 48v battery (54.6v) I would open the controller and see what the capacitors are rated at. Most of them are rated at 63v and should of handled your 52v battery. You can try to change out the capacitors to a 100v and see if that works. I did that with my rize blade and noticed that the controller has a set voltage at 61v.
you should use that battery blender youll be able to use both at once just used mine for the first time way better speed less voltage sag and longer range
@@Catamount19 i have a juiced hyper scorpion added three 52v 20ah batteries i run them all at the same time i was able to keep a steady speed of 34mph with minimal sag i commute 46 miles to work and i made it with 49.9v of battery left its pretty freaking sweet
@@SHREDDIEMCSKATE yeah dude it saves me a shit ton on gas, cali gas aint no joke. i ride to work then charge up at work and ride back home i do it three times a week. it takes me about an hour and 45 mins in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon after work.
@@SHREDDIEMCSKATE heh I have big plans for a build like this. 1)mid drive added 2) belt drive chain ring for reliability and no oil on my fingers when the chain fails off the gears 3) Internal geared hub for more torque(check it out so awesome) 4) 2 20ah 48v triangle batteries and if I’m crazy enough the 15ah on top like the super73 style has. 5) only problem would be the hole in your wallet :(. But the range and power would be beast like.
Love your videos , you are the guy that made me want a RX . And I got it , love it for sure. Now we are on battery's, getting one made for me from brick . Would love to get one of them battery blenders , please let me know when that are available. Thanks man . Keep up the great work. Jon.
I’m still trying to get the battery blender to work with the RX…. I have to make a special cable for it to work…Hopefully I can get one made soon🤘🏾⚡️🤘🏾
@@SHREDDIEMCSKATE yes... I willing to spend $3+ but if can’t hit 40mph after mods then it ain’t worth the price tags. There should be a customizable options like dual motor or battery.
it won't give you more top speed because the motor shaft has its own top speed that you are already reaching. you'll notice that once you hit your top speed, your power consumption drops slightly, because maintaining that top speed isn't as difficult as accelerating up to it. but once there, the motor has literally zero torque. throw all the watts you want at it, it can't spin any faster. however, a 52V battery WILL affect your acceleration, big time. also, you don't really want to be using two dissimilar batteries in parallel like that. if either battery drops in voltage compared to the other, very high amounts of current will flow from the high V battery to the low V batt. this is a situation you do not want in the vicinity of your reproductive parts. you should look into installing a schottky diode or replacing the controller so that it can take >52V input.
It's Crazy Super 73 Kills Your Warrants If You Try To Modify There Bikes Like You Just Done .. It Make You Not Want To Buy There Bike . Because If You Blow Out The Controller By Mistake Your Bike Is Trash . They Not Gonna Help You At All .
they will definitely help with the controller if something happens just don't mention you did any modding and definitely don't go posting your modded bike and tagging them

Did you ever get that battery blender??👀
If so could you make a video on the install or link a vid if you made one already plz?
