I'm thinking of adding a few more cells to my battery pack to increase the overall working voltage.
I have tested mine between 30V-44V.
44V being the maximum i can get my pack charged and everything ran fine.
I found the LVC was at 30V using a variable power supply, but was reluctant to find the higher voltage working point above 44V.
If the controller is not protected, the higher threshold might be when something gets irrepairably damaged and i don't want to chance it.
JohnP seems to have sold quite a few kits so i am wondering if anyone out there has spent time fully tested the working voltage of these controllers and motors and can tell me if there is a high voltage cutout feature.
Thanks
