    Good job explaining everything, you made it very clear. I upgraded my 36v mx500 a little bit ago to 48v but I used 15ah SLA so it doesn't have much ride time. Next step I wanna grab up a lithium battery maybe 20ah I want to get some more range out of it but don't have too much to spend. Thanks for the video. 👍

    Great work and thanks for the detailed video as well. So far, we've done the lazy upgrade path of slapping a 48v 20ah Ebike battery into our MX650 and are just punishing the stock controller and motor for now- the bike still rides awesome compared to stock, but yeah, we see the future and it's a brushless motor and real controller. Razor Gang for life!

    • @BRichSolution
      @BRichSolution  3 года назад +3

      That's a nice way to upgrade in steps: go to 48v battery and when the stock motor burns up then replace with 1800w brushless. Here is link to before and after speed test when I put 48v battery into a stock motor (SX500 with 650 motor) ruclips.net/video/kRvYAI1hdc4/видео.html

    This was incredibly helpful--thank you so much! I am all done except for one issue: the battery comes with a separate charging cable, so do I have to hook up the controller to a charging port? Am I not just able to charge the battery with the cable as it was sent?

    • @BRichSolution
      @BRichSolution  3 года назад +2

      You can do one of two things:
      1. Use the stock charger the battery comes with and route the new battery's charger port out of the battery box
      2. Wire the new battery's charge port to the controller and buy 54.6V 1.5A Charger with XLR Plug amzn.to/3nlOk9A so you can use the stock charge port.

    Hey B, great video. I'm hoping you can help me out. I have the same motor you linked, 1800w, 48v. I'm just about done with my build and getting ready to ditch the stock razor batteries and just order the 48v-14ah with charger. But I see that the battery's maximum continuous discharge current is 30 amps and the Motor's Controller maximum current rating is 32 amps documented on the site, and says 33 amps on my controller. Either way, from what I understand, the battery's max. discharge should be higher than the controller's max. current rating and this is not so with this motor and battery combo. Is this a problem? Is it enough to worry about? If i stand in a pool, lick my finger, stick my finger in a socket.... will I feel better?
    All joking a side, I'm learning about stuff I shoulda known long ago but I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on the battery and want to make sure I get the best bang from my buck. I see you addressed someone's concern about the 1200w battery with an 1800w motor, which was a concern of mine also. Not sure I understand, but would it be better to find one rated for the 1800w motor?
    Thanks ahead for any insight. Love the vid. Now I want dirtbikes instead of this scooter....

    • @BRichSolution
      @BRichSolution  3 года назад +1

      I understand your concern, but that 1200W is guide for this battery specs. Ideally you'd want a battery with a 35A BMS, but the 30A BMS battery is sufficient as it appears the BMS restricts amps to 40A in real life. The reason why I know this to be true as when riding I do not notice a performance hit unless the voltage is below 45V (riding for over 60 minutes) in high speed (pulling 1800W). Hence, 1800W / 45V = 40 Amps. When I start to drop below 47V I typically only run in medium or low gear (this is why I like the 3 spd throttle) to preserve my range. That's why I like having the 3 spd throttle and volt gage on the handlebars.

    The 48v/20ah battery on Ebay mentions powering up to a 1200w motor or less. Is that anything to be concerned with, like perhaps increasing degradation of the battery, or will it be able to handle the 1800w motor? It seems like it should work fine, considering your other videos of it working well, like the 6 month check in. Just a little worried before I start investing in this project.

      yes motor is bolt on, but you do have recess 2 protruding screws on the back of the motor. see video at 2:22 for details. the screws are easy to recess as the motor back plate is aluminum to it drills out easily

    Where did you wire the Electric Lock (red and orange) to? And I'm not using a 3 speed throttle, so do I leave the 3 speed connector on the controller alone?

      E-lock is on/off switch; see video at 5:17 If you do nothing to the throttle it will remain in middle gear; if you want it to stay in high speed wire black to blue wire on the 3 speed harness 5:38
