Hi.
I have a converted bike with a 48v 500w BPM motor, a 20a sine-wave controller with a kt-lcd3, and a 48v 20ah battery. I only converted the bike a month ago and all the parts are hardly used so far. During the last week that I've been riding, the bike has cut out power for a few seconds when going up hill. It has only happened three times so far, on separate occasions. The LCD stays on and doesn't show any error message, but the power just cuts out and then goes back on five seconds later. It has happened when going up hill under load with the wattage at or near its maximum, which is over 900w.
Does anyone know what the cause of this could be? I suspect maybe it is the battery. Perhaps a loose connection? Or could it be the controller cutting power momentarily due to the current being too high?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
