April 18, 20197 yr Hi all, Please help me! I have a freego raptor (24v) which I use for my daily commute. The battery is not performing like it used to and tends to run out now just before the last hill on the way home. I have access to 36v 13ah battery from a conversion kit I bought before i got the raptor and it is still in good order. I was hoping I could use the 36v rather than shelling out on a new battery. As the controller is located inside the frame I am not sure how to get at it to see if it will handle 36v. So the questions are; Does anyone have any idea where in the frame the controller is mounted and how you access it? Does anyone already know what controller is in a freego raptor and whether it would be rated for aa 36v battery? I guess this may push the speed beyond legal limit so i am hoping that i can limit the speed somehow through programming the display / controller.
April 18, 20197 yr If the controller already has a speed limit, changing the battery to 36V won't change it. I never heard of anybody trying a 36V battery with one of those bikes. Most 24V controllers can take a 36V battery, but there's no guarantee. If it does blow, you can get a normal 36V controller and LCD and run the wiring external to wherever you mount the controller. Alternatively, you have to remove the 24V controller and check what components it has.
