Have you measured this things amp pull from the battery so we can see the wattage? You can just put a clamp meter on the pos or neg wire from the battery while full throttle it. Put the clamp on a "MAX" setting too you can drive around then see the max it pulled & at 10:15 I think your videos are good for what they show. All I request is the above, otherwise you show all the info that is really needed. at 14:20 that is a good test if you fully open throttle with a clamp meter too
@chrismakesstuff119 күн бұрын
I don't have a clamp meter, someday I will probably invest in one but for the time being, specs are just based on the component specs. Honestly, those can vary from batch to batch of components, and sometimes manufacturers can over or under state the actual specs.

"VEVOR's Warranty Fail! I'm sharing my disappointing experience with VEVOR's Brushless Electric Motor. Despite their 12-month warranty, they've failed to honor their commitment. After reporting the issue, I was met with a series of unhelpful responses, including being told to seek local assistance and offered a paltry compensation of AUD 56. I've been patient, but VEVOR's lack of action is unacceptable. I demand a replacement unit that functions as advertised, not a refund. If VEVOR doesn't provide a solution within 48 hours, I'll take further action: File complaints with consumer protection agencies Share my experience on review platforms Seek legal advice for breach of warranty Don't let VEVOR's poor customer service and warranty issues go unchecked! Share your own experiences and let's hold them accountable for their actions. #VEVOR #WarrantyFail #PoorCustomerService #GoKart #ElectricMotor"

The temperature should be much lower. You should never see smoke or even bubbles. To get a good strong splice you need to push the belt against the plate to form a bead and then stop pushing and hold the belt still for about 15 to 20 seconds. This heats the belt deeper. Then when you join the belt push gently. If you push too hard you displace the hot material and you end up with cold rubber at the joint. This will cause a weak splice. Also this belt is only good for about 1/4 hp. Not the best choice for that lathe.

@gg-gn3re20 күн бұрын
Well the "door lock" switch is the key in the throttle, that literally just needs to be shorted to be on. So you can use any on/off switch. Then the throttle is 3 wires, but there's no telling what resistances it is set to, for example: on one motor it can be like 10 to 1000 ohms and another could be 2000 to 4000 ohms it really doesn't matter. When you are designing the internal components to read the resistance sent by the throttle you can just say 10 ohms = 10% power OR 1000 ohms = 10% power it doesn't matter at all so the compatibility can be all over the place. So to be compatible you need something that is similar range I guess They usually are pretty similar so when you buy a separate one it should be "suitable for most" of them

Technically you don't have to solder, but I'd suggest it on anything that moves like a vehicle. Solder has less electrical resistance and won't rattle loose.
@gg-gn3re20 күн бұрын
definitely solder the connections, do not just use tape lol these bullet plugs used are good for <15 amps (prob 10 most) so be careful before using them for something like this 30-40 amps use the "battery quick connect 50amp" ones they are ugly 2 plug and grey. OR a MC4 connector for solar which are good 30-40 amps. I don't know of any better ones, unfortunately most connectors are terrible for anything over 10 amps.
