I have a small 48v 7ah battery. A KT 15 amp controller.
I normally use assist level 2 and level 5 for a 10% hill that is about 300 metres long.
I had done 16 miles in total and the battery voltage was showing around 44-46v on the lcd8.
As I got on the 10% hill and switched to assist level 5 the battery icon would start flashing on the lcd and the motor would cut out. I dropped down to assist level 3 and the problem went away.
Why would this happen?
Do I have a bad battery or is this because the battery did not have sufficient charge to supply the power the controller/motor demanded?
This never happens when the battery is fully charged. Shows around 54.4 when fully changed on the lcd.
