dam dude , you did a clean job and pretty well thought out. i love it mist people arent like us , they dont do something creative and punch holes in a expensive bike to make it be what you want
Good concept indeed. But how many AMPS this small speed step-up converter can handle?
Also, can you please share the file for the 3D printed box?
haha , i love it , i figured most of them could go up to 60
The booster came finally can't wait to install it.. how important is that fan?
I didn't test if the fan is needed, but since it already comes with it and is also temperature controlled, then why not?
Ps, If space is a problem, I would recommend buying a cheap battery-powered thermometer to mount on the handle bar of the bike and sticking the temperature prob into the heat sink, which will let you know if the boost-converter is getting too hot while driving
just might check and make sure the motor can handle that load safely too if youre gonna do this to your bike
lol awesome dude
thanks
Like your wisdom!! how can i incress milage with a second battery , hiper e city bike 7.8 ah ,
you should never tin a multi strand wire before putting it into a screw down terminal. it makes the connection LESS secure, not more. and can lead to a bad connection, the wire eventually working loose from vibration, or in the worst case, a high resistance connection which can overheat and cause damage or even a fire. Those terminals are designed to clamp onto bare wire. they should be used correctly
Sorry to ask in the last video I had a lot of questions about connecting the cables till today I can’t ride my bike it’s down the electric bike in now a normal bike 🚲 please can you show me how you connected the throttle cables of the hyper bike step by step😢🤲🏽🙏🏽
I when and cut all my motor controller cables as you did in the previous hyper bike video after I was waiting to see how you connected the cables back but you gave a brief explanation are you were too fast to connect back, ever since I’ve not ride the bike as an electric bike
I have but like 2 to 3 Moto controller and each time I try to connect to fail I don’t know and all of these does not come with the Manuel. You know I’m really tired. Please help me.
@GamingVortex050 start with the motor wires, that has 5 thin cables, and 3 thick ones, which can be connected color to color. The included display has a specific connector that can be plugged into the controller. The throttle has a black wire for negative, a red wire for positive (5volts), and also a different color wire (usually blue or white). Finally, connect the thick red and black wires coming from the battery to the speed controller.
If I missed any details, just ask.
Could you do a larger battery capacity?
@kingomega150 Yes, a larger battery capacity should work
I gotta be honest... before I try to do all that I'll just purchase a faster bike in the first place 😂
Problem there being that the maximum speed of ebikes are limited by legislation in many or most jurisdictions.
@@SMorrisRose I'm European, French to be exact and clearly the legislation for ebikes here is quite restrictive :
- throttle up to 6kph (4mph) max
- assist only up to 25kph (16mph)
- maximum nominal power output of 250w...
So yeah, I want more power AND speed but... the DIY here would make my bike as illegal as a brand new bike that does not fit the legislation. As such, if I'm okay riding an "illegal" bike, why would I impose myself the hassle of doing such a mod ? Wouldn't it be easier and more reliable to get a bike engineered to be faster directly from the factory ?
Again, as an European customer, if I want to go cheap, I can get an Engwe Bike that goes 45kph with dual 48V13A batteries for as low as 1450€ !
Better, If I'm not on a budget, I can get a Super73 for 4000€ (yeah Super73 is way more expensive in Europe compared to the US) : it's law compliant in mode 1 but I can go all the way to off-road mode (50+ kph / 1200w rated power / 2000w peak)
Don't get me wrong, i'm impressed by the mod ! It's freaking cool but it's more a proof of concept than a real life mod (by upping the voltage of the battery, the capacity doesn't change but the range will be greatly reduced).
ex :
Case 1 -> Vanilla bike : 36V 13Ah, Controller allows 13A discharge, max speed 20mph
If I go full throttle from 100% to 0%, I can ride 1h and I will cover 20 miles
Case 2 -> Modded bile : 60V 7,8A, same controller, max speed 28mph
with the same test conditions : I can ride for only 36min and even if I go faster, I'll only cover 16,8 miles.
And that's the ideal case... Because reality is a b***h, there will be energy loss (from the voltage booster, in tire friction, in motor efficiency, in heat, etc).
And similar to a car, the energy loss will only goes up with speed, so the difference between "ideal" and "real life" range will be much larger with the 60V modded bike.
I’m confused 😕
