i did buy the bike at the price i expected. it is a very quiet bike tbh, much more quiet than i expected. I have not yet put it apart in any way or form. is it easy to unplug the original battery? so i can take it out to get measurements of how i need to build my own battery.
Mixing a low and a high voltage battery in paralell is dangerous, in series you just create a total higher voltage with unknown balance and internal resistance, and i think that's rather stupid. either paralell or serial connect 2 "identical" batteries, or make a completely new battery is what i think is the only 2 really viable options.
I am going to follow your thread to if you keep posting your results with the kelly controller!
Check out my friends videos at diving into the inside of the TS motor, an operation to resurrect a broken original TS battery and more:
Did a nice run tonight and I am pretty pleased how it drives, i constantly pushing cars when driving away so thats a good thing, top speed is good but could be better.
The regen function is really good, i brake only this way, hardly pull the brake lever.
The controller was showing 80km radius, i drove 55km tonight and the battery showed still 20procent, so around 70km should be possible with my setup, I have to say that i pull up with full power every time and have driven top speed.
I noticed that in the last part of the drive the bms killed the power for one of the batteries for a brief moment, so I had to play with the throttle a little bit to prevent this from happening, meaning I have to reduce the power output a little bit.
For the rest its a blast to drive the bike this way, it a fairly cheap upgrade giving you way more driving fun and a bigger radius for less then half the price of a new original battery.
That is nice, 55,9 km and still 20% to go, and you are pushing a lot more current with that kelly controller compared to original too!
Out of curiousity, what is your topspeed now? and what do you think made the bms trigger? was it low-voltage cut-off or high amp cut-off?
