    battery condition

    Did you top it up regularly ? Or simply leave it for two years after topping up If the former you should be ok, prob deteriorated a little but should work. If the latter then perhaps not I'd start by checking with a multimeter that the battery reads 42v (or near enough) when hot off the charger

    BMSBattery/PayPal buyer protection warning for "extra shipping cost"

    So is that putting a 48v battery on a 36v Kit and getting the speed increase ? Risk of blowing controller goes up I presume ?

    Ciclotek

    Just a thought but when I blew a FET or two in my controller it made the motor make truly horrible noises. If you have corruson /water in controller this could short something and blow a FET Maybe a new controller will fix the issue. Not expensive to do.
