hi tim, i am building my razor e300 scooter right now and i am wondering if i want to get more speed out of my scooter and for my motor to not burn up should i upgrade the motor to a 24volt 350 watt then the original motor and i am running a 36volt 500 watt battery with a 36volt 500watt controller will i get more performance out of an upgraded motor or just keep this mltlr
I have the same controller and a variable throttle but I’m using two 5amp 18 volt drill is series so my scooter is 5amp 36v but I’m only getting 30kmh how come I get slower than you Evan tho we have 36v and I have the stock motor how could I go faster ?
Cool mod. I have a E300, which is standard. Can I add a hoverboard battery to it? Or exchange the current batteries with 2 hover board batteries for longer ride time?
Check out my build videos, I have this set up would melt a standard controller and motor sadly its not a 24v set up. Needs a full upgrade to go 36v dude 😊 sorry
Timsalsanights aka The Caffeine Racer I be watched a few but didn’t understand. Do I need the 36v controller, or motor and controller I also have a crazy cart & want to increase its run time, I believe they have similar set ups
@@andrefinessetv2788 @Andre finesse TV going to this set up won't increase run time. Buy large Ah batteries ie bigger they will last longer. My aim in the build was faster. I have an FAQ video Have you watched this? ruclips.net/video/H2RT3yrQm8g/видео.html
Hey man! Ive got the same setup. Yiyun yk31c speed controller. I have 2 of these razors.. the first razor worked great from the start. The second....I have tried 3 different new speed controllers. Turn the key on..shows I have 40 volts charge.. twist the throttle . Nothing happens. I hooked up my original speed controll from my working scooter and everything works. Hook up the other controllers....nothing happens. I have a hard time believing I have 3 faulty new speed controllers.. do you have any ideas?
Well thats weird i have did the mod to but then with only one battery the voltage Goes from 42 volts to 36 and then cutts off it should be able to drain to 26 volts right?
Hi Tim, love the build videos, do you have a parts list breakdown available? I’m in the process of waiting on some bits to arrive from China but would love some more info!! also would you be able to help with the mudguards you 3D print? thanks, Cam.
So I got mine fully built Tim, 36v 800w controller (I added a few xt60 connections), variable thumb throttle , three hoverboard batteries (connected in parallel) and the currie 24v 500w motor (had to use an xt90 connector for this as the cables were thick!!) I took it for a spin starting with 41.8v on my display, 21mph off the bat (I weigh 13.5 stone so happy with that speed) managed to get around 3 or 4 miles on various gradients, but at 32.2v on my display it just bogged out and pretty much lost all power!! I’m putting this down to the batteries if I’m honest I didn’t listen to you and I went cheap as I just wanted to get a feel for building one of these things but I just couldn’t believe they would bog out when there’s that much power still left inside the batteries!! do you recommend anywhere to purchase good quality batteries and what sort of price should I be looking at spending? I went for Samsung 36v 4.4ah via AliExpress and I got some shocking “KEDANONE” ones delivered so I’m currently in dispute over this matter with the seller but I’d greatly appreciate somewhere reliable to purchase some batteries! Appreciate your help Tim.
@@CameronCampbellM the batteries are completely drained in this build at 31v I believe it won't be enough to power the controller and motor willbe sluggish. A good battery will take longer to get to 31v. Sadly I don't have a reliable source for these batteries to send you to.
I've been following your videos and was getting ready to do the two LION battery, controller and throttle update (not the motor) but now I'm seeing this video. Did you have to upgrade the controller on this update or did you stay with the 800W from the original build? I like that there will be less speed since I'll be building this mostly for my three boys. Please post a new parts list if you have time. Thank you.
And I see in the Comments here that "Doug green" asked for a link for the motor (~9 months ago.) And Bhakta Singh, too. Guess I'm not the only one having a difficulty tracking it down!
@@scottwilliams895 links changed stock has fallen due to covid sadly but if you do what I did and Google the motors model number it's made buy curie motor and I had mine shipped from America.
yes through the original charging port as shown in my build video. port is connected to the charging wires of the new Controller though you have to check and make shore you get + & - round the right way and that it matches to the charger plug otherwise your charger will go bang. This happened to me the ltihium packs pack alot of punch fairly dangerous if you make a mistake and short them.
@@hedialaya3230 are u using standard 24v lead batteries and what's your weight. No motor lasts forever sadly the 350w is a good motor the 500w is better doesn't get as hot 🔥
@@TheCaffeineRacer forgot to mention I have a lithium 24v 20ah, 500wh samsung cell battery. Battery bms rated 30A as well as the controller. I removed the stock connectors (to battery and motor) they melted badly and soldered directly. All is running. I definitely can use more power motor. There is a stock (black) mechanical fuse rated at 25A. So the motor needs to be rated under that
I don't think I will, I don't want to cook it, it's thermal level is good as it is with pretty good performance. Managed to snap my throttle off putting it the the boot of the car. Someone thing to be said for folding head stocks would be useful. Ride safe
@@TheCaffeineRacerMakes sense. Thanks for the videos, best I've seen covering the Razor and details needed to make a decision. I'm working on a E300 & Pocket Mod. Your battery idea is ingenious! Easy to source and perfect size for these frames, I already ordered 3. Thanks again!
yo tom im having some trouble with my skooter i bouta new contoller because i thought that was the problem i can charge it and throtlle lights up but wen i plug the motor in it starts going super fast and wont turn off
Today I just finished my build thanks for the video insporation couldn't have done it without you.
Love this upgrade series

Please do a ride out video witht he new e500 model. Also how long is the battery life on here
I will do one soon 🔜 things been mad busy this year content has slipped some what sorry 🙏
@@TheCaffeineRacer thanks for responding, looking for it. Also sorry but, whats the battery life

Which motor do you have? 500 watt motor and how much did it cost, do you have a link or part number?
XYD-6B2 is the motor made by currie 24v 500w top rpm 2600.

At wich voltage does your battery’s cutoff at? Your series about the scooter has been much help
haven't tested that in a while starts at 52v drains to 31v I believe

Sadly the parts were all before pandemic alot aren't available or if they are will cost more. Best advice don't go cheep on battery packs

Hi there is the 800w controller 🎮 from the original build as it will do any motor upto 800w which is helpful
Have done parts list in previous videos but as I use ebay items sell out fast sadly but it will suggest other parts simular
Do you have the link to the motor you used?
No sorry just the model number in the description i bought it well before covid hit, supplies changed alot sorry just google the model numer XYD-682
Cool project! I'm doing something similar. Do you have a link for where you got the 500W Currie motor rated for 28A?
Thanks!
I think the link is on my scooter FAQ video but will be old now. Its capable of taking 28A which is great
I looked at the other video, but didn't see a link for the motor in the Description, nor Comments.

Set up looking strong 🔥, which would you prefer, brushless motor or chain drivers motor
I don't like brushless Hubs but I do have a brushless motor I wanna try in it so will have a brushless motor and a chain drive
Timsalsanights aka The Caffeine Racer that’s smart, double the speed so what would be the estimated speed?
@@Abdul_-ct6pn 24mph average its pretty consistant the 350w motor is faster. 27-29mph
Also, how do you charge your batteries through your original charging port or is their another way?
yes through the original charging port as shown in my build video. port is connected to the charging wires of the new Controller though you have to check and make shore you get + & - round the right way and that it matches to the charger plug otherwise your charger will go bang. This happened to me the ltihium packs pack alot of punch fairly dangerous if you make a mistake and short them.
Still selling your mudguard?
I have just bought a e300 and I’m looking to get 30mph what upgrades do I need many thanks
a steep hill a prayer and to watch the FAQ and build videos on this channel :)
can I run this 500W chain motor with the stock controller ? Mine shows rating at 30A 24V. I managed to cook my 250w motor.
I u could over run the controller and fuse it I wouldn't run that set up
@@TheCaffeineRacer I will go 350w cause for now the 250w motor is heating badly.

Hey I’m trynna buy that back cover for the wheel but im In the us what’s your eBay name
Send me one please
I got money
Any idea if mini moto wheels will fit?
I am sorry I have no experience with those part sadly wouldn't like to comitthe spacing is type so I doubt it.
So when are you gonna run that motor at 48v?
I don't think I will, I don't want to cook it, it's thermal level is good as it is with pretty good performance. Managed to snap my throttle off putting it the the boot of the car. Someone thing to be said for folding head stocks would be useful. Ride safe

@@iiizaiah3794 have you searched for the model number founds it's wiring drawing sounds like you have the wires in the wrong orded or crossed
