    Thanks d8! Using the cyclamatic as an example, would you splice in the booster pack before or after the controller?

    Yes, not sure how the controller deals with it either. Will do the search you recommend.

    Still on the idea of a simple booster pack... I found this on youtube. You've probably seen it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAKgDdc ... _&index=39 This guy added a booster back and literally just spliced the pack into the wire that runs from the battery to the motor. I'm assuming he is...

    Me too. It's gnawing at me...more performance just a bit of solder away...

    Got it. Thanks. Sounds like the best action will be to buy a new 36V battery and controller and give it a try.

    Thanks! Really appreciate the detailed answer. For me it was more of a question of could it be done vs. should it be done! As is often the case, "could" sounds like it doesn't make sense! You know, it's interesting. I picked up the Cyclamatic, used, for around $300 US. Almost brand new according...

    The batteries I want to use are 3.7 amps so you are right; could be a fuse blower. I can regulate the voltage down. Need to think about regulating the current down as well?

    Hmm..how would it be different than the voltage/amperage that's being fed from the charger? My thought is to use a connector that's identical to the current charger connector, then positive to positive, negative to negative. But, seems like that would be to easy.....

    I have a question. Would it be possible to build a booster pack that plugged directly into the charging port of my 24v Cyclamatic battery? The 3 prong plugs are readily available. Recognizing that it wouldn't be as efficient as directly adding cells internally to the existing battery pack, it...

    Thanks! Will do. I'm new to all of this but have been doing a bit of research. Sounds like your battery died a progressive death? I'm sure you've seen the threads discussing 36V battery packs that are a direct plug and play for the Cyclamatic. Sounds like the motor will easily handle that...

    Wondering if anyone can direct me to an online version of the instruction manual for the Cyclamatic Power Plus. I just bought one used and want to ensure I'm charging it correctly etc. Thanks!
