    Battery and controller swap on shop bought bike?

    I've fitted a few 17A controllers for that reason too. The 20A one comes in different sizes. I have one that's the same as the 17A one.

    If you have a KT controller, you can have a legal throttle with P4 =1 and C4=3. That way, the throttle gives 4mphwhen not pedalling and 15 mph when pedalling. It works like a boost button. You ride along at level 3 or whatever you want, then when you press the throttle, it goes immediately to...

    LcD Display

    You need to do all the settings to get the pedal sensor to work. It shouldn't be a compatibility issue.

    Bloody Trump! He's got a lot to answer for. It all started the day he put his name down for president, when he changed from being the most popular guy in the USA to Hitler. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have had to Brexit, and his people wouldn't all be so much better off at our expense...

    Help! Samebike PAS not working in higher gears

    You need to establish at what speed it cuts out. Is it consistent or is it a different speed each time. You need to test with at least a bit of load on the motor, otherwise it'll overrun.

    You can't scan for it. It's done over the Internet. All such household inverters are connected to the Internet. You can control them yourself from your phone or laptop. All anybody needs is the login credentials, and the manufacturers always have higher level credentials so that they can login...

    Handle bar riser

    You can make just about any bike comfortable if you get the right stem and handlebars. You can use a stem riser ti increase the height of the bars to get a more upright position. I've had to change all my bikes because my neck gives in if I ride in the looking up position.

    Battery and controller swap on shop bought bike?

    He has a 20A controller. You can turn the current down in the settings, so he has his set to 15A, which he seems to be happy with. If you have the space for installation, it's better to use a higher powered controller at lower power than a lower powered one maxed out.

    Gaffer tape or Super Glue?

    I hope you didn't replace it with the exact same type. I see they have a different version that uses a different structure than two tubes. Did they change it because of failures? Anyway, it looks like a pretty clear case of hydrogen embrittlement in the heat affected zone, which happens during...

    OK, 15A is about as high as you can safely go, so get the PSWPower one. It would be best to get the type with block connectors, not the moulded waterproof ones because you might need to re-arrange the motor connections, which is impossible with the moulded type.

    Which controller kit do i buy?

    Have I got this right then: You've somehow managed to jam an 8-pin connector into a 9-pin socket, it's giving an error code and you're wondering why??

    Which controller kit do i buy?

    You can't plug a 9-pin into an 8-pin. It has the wrong number of pins. I must be misunderstanding something. Can you explain?
