    Advice required please for throttle plug connections.

    I have recently acquired a new 36v controller complete with S866 lcd. The controller wires all appear to mate up correctly except the throttle. I attach a photo to help demonstrate what I am writing. The plug on the right comes from the throttle and has red, black and white wires. The plug on...

    36V Powabyke front wheel conversion. Advice needed please.

    Many thanks Nealh for your two replies. I cant believe the difference the Lithium batteries have made. The Yose pack weighs in at 8lbs the old Powabyke lead acid battery pack weighed in at 1st 12lbs. Win Win all round :)

    36V Powabyke front wheel conversion. Advice needed please.

    Thank you for your reply WheezyRider, yep, I meant the metal bars on either side. They do make pedalling the bike slightly awkward giving a bow legged feel. The new battery pack is quite narrow in comparison to the old lead acid battery pack and there must over an inch to spare either side of...

    Help required to wire up LCD S866 display if possible please.

    I have purchased, possibly in haste but had a voucher available that was near an expiry date, a S866 LCD unit ( photo attached showing S866 and plug). There are no dedicated plugs available in my controller to plug in the LCD unit, the attached photo shows those plugs and connectors presently...

    36V Powabyke front wheel conversion. Advice needed please.

    Many thanks saneagle for your latest reply, I will measure the battery box tomorrow and see what options are available although I have been looking at 36V downtube battery packs which appear to come with their own dedicated downtube bracket.

    36V Powabyke front wheel conversion. Advice needed please.

    Thank you for your reply, unfortunately there is no mention of amps on the controller ( please see my reply #11 ). Having said this I did keep a copy of my receipt/invoice which does mention Rated Current 31A. Hope this is helpful.

    36V Powabyke front wheel conversion. Advice needed please.

    Thats great saneagle, many thanks. It has given me some figures to work with and research. I will however be back with my findings asking for re-assurance that the battery pack it find is suitable ;). Just to confirm your suspicions I enclose a couple of photos of road test short while ago...

    Many sincere thanks saneagle and WheezyRider for your replies. I really appreciate both of you taking an interest in this thread and trying to help me ;). The lead acid NP12-12 batteries aren`t that old probably three months at most, I replaced the original Powabyke batteries when I first...

    36V Powabyke front wheel conversion. Advice needed please.

    Many thanks for your continued help and advice in my posts. The batteries are 3 x 12V NP12-12 which are still producing nearly 39V without having been charged for the last couple of days ( see photos ).

    36V Powabyke front wheel conversion. Advice needed please.

    Thank you for your reply, there are no hall sensors. I dis-connected the plug from the old Powabyke wiring when I removed the old controller ( see attached photo ). The instructions for the new controller seemed to intimate the bike would run with just the motor wires connected together with the...
