Lectric | XP3.0 | e-Bike Plug & Play Dual Battery Balancer Kit install with 52V 15Ah Second Battery

[@DavidMiller-ss3nb]

What is the advantage of using 52 V rather than 48 - - power, range, or both

[@DavidFox-d8q]

I have lectric 2.0 with 48v 20amp Dual Battery Discharge Balance, I was wondering will the 52v 15amp work ?

[@keeganmmonahan]

Hey Matt it was great meeting you today on the trail. I'm definitely interested in the product. Distance means everything to me

[@ElectricAllWheel]

Hey Keegan. Check out this article. It should help get you sorted. electricallwheel.com/how-to-install-lectric-xp-dual-batteries/

That looks like a very cool trail. I really need to get back down to Tampa and spend a few days riding.

[@IiGR3ATNESSiI]

does it improve overall speed as well?

[@JV-ng7wz]

Hey, would this work/be compatible with a 36V 15AH battery I have lying around?

[@jerrylambrecht1467]

Do you think a greenworks 60v would be to much for the controller to handle?

[@cjoly2261]

Thanks

[@pickandstrum]

I thought both batteries had to be the same voltage for dual to work the xp is 48 volt.

[@ElectricAllWheel]

Electricallwheel only recommends using the system rated voltage for your e-bike. Should you choose to do this, please acknowledge all precautions and warnings outlined in the video.

[@Greatgadgetsgear]

@@ElectricAllWheel What are the advantages of mix matching voltages like this? You get same mileage advantage with same volt system, does the 52 improve power or something else? Thanks

Hey, so for 31.25$ plus shipping, I get 2 tubes and 2 tires correct ?

I just ordered your brown wall tires. What brown grips and brown seat is that in the 3.0 in the background?

[@ElectricAllWheel]

We will send you a pair of the grips. Thanks for your support! The seat is Bontrager brand.

Yes

Does it work for gotrax f2 or does gotrax uses a different controller

We are working on a cable set for gotrax but do not have it yet.

​@ElectricAllWheel Awesome sauce I will be waiting

[@blackangel75171]

Apparently, the Universal 20a kit that you used z2095 2 pin to xt60 works same positive and negative unfortunately I have to do an outside install not enough space too long wires but it's nice that I didn't waste my money I also got the xt60 extension set. also just incase someone ask I know I can shorten the wires but this is a plug-in kit and I don't want to void my warranty by cutting and splicing wires

[@scubatrucker6806]

Will this work for a 2.0 step thru?

[@ElectricAllWheel]

We suspect it will with the same precautions and understanding of what is at risk. We will perform tests in coming videos.

With this setup how do you charge the 52v battery?

[@ElectricAllWheel]

The second battery is charged through its charging port with its own charger

where in Tampa Bay are you at? Is this something I could pick up locally from you? I am just up the road in NPR and this would be great for my wifes bike

[@ElectricAllWheel]

If you don’t want to order from our online store, Tarpon Tom’s e-bikes sells our product from their store front in Palm Harbor.

[@HuggyBearHikes]

Will the bikes display show the combined batteries charge level or is it only showing for the original battery?

[@ElectricAllWheel]

If both batteries are fully charged before use, it will show them as combined

[@trikester4919]

When I purchased a Lectric xPeak I got a spare battery for it. Can you show how to hook the spare battery into the xPeak system for extended range. Thank!

[@WinkBlinkNod]

Is it not possible to put the battery in the space between the tire, the rack and the seat post? I want to try this with the proper 48v 15 or 20ah, but it’s also a triangular shape and I don’t want to lose the use of my rack like this. Is there another way?

[@davidreeves2596]

There's a video where they put a similar battery in the spot you are talking of.

[@MrLarry-gr8]

When it comes to charging the batteries, How is that done? When you charge one battery, will it also automatically charge the other battery? Or how is that done?

[@ElectricAllWheel]

Batteries will need to be charged independently with their respective chargers

Do I have to disconnect them from the balancer while charging? Can I charge them at the same time?​@@ElectricAllWheel

[@Greatgadgetsgear]

@@2008swap Great question.

[@garyderoy]

Wow. You're lucky you didn't ruin your 52v battery. Li cells won't charge if you drain them below 2.68v per cell. Lucky for you, everybody pads the low cut-off voltage to be safe (unfortunately this ruins your range). The cut-off may be 39 or 40 volts on the XP 3.0. 39v / 14 cells on a 52v battery pack = 2.78v per cell. You're cutting it awful close. My 3.0 is in the shed for the winter so I can't check, but can you change the cut-off voltage on it? I can on my Ariel Rider Kepler. On a 36v system the cut-off is probably somewhere around 30v. That's only 2.14v per cell on a 52v battery pack. It would definitely kill that pack.

[@ElectricAllWheel]

Or you allow the BMS to dominate cutoff and charge when you return from your ride. Thanks for watching!

[@garyderoy]

@@ElectricAllWheel So, how does the balancer handle that? It must shut the 48v battery off when it can't draw more voltage from the 52v pack (to balance it). So the 48v pack is effectively shut off before it's cut-off? At least it's safe. I enjoy your videos.

[@malingehring165]

you can't mix voltages!!

[@ElectricAllWheel]

We definitely agree with this principle.

[@family77866]

Actually even with two 48v batteries you could still be mixing voltages. If one of the batteries is at half charged and the other is fully charged you are mixing 48v-49v with 54v. I'm assuming that both batteries were fully charged so the difference would be 4 volts. That's probably why there was no issues. The balancer is more than likely able to handle a voltage difference up to x amount. I still would not recommend this. Anyone who does, does it at their own risk.

[@ErosVampire]

Yes actually you can unless the controller is not rated for it which it is rated for that but its not recommended for a variety of reasons mainly thermal and lane control reasons. The batteries are not single cell batteries meaning there could be 50 individual battery cells in the 1 battery which means that each battery is being discharged at different rates so your cell’s will always have different voltages. You just don’t want massive volt and amp differences because thats when theres issues. The number one thing you NEVER want to do is go past the controllers voltage rating because that fry it or worse for example it could turn into a Samsung phone and spontaneously combust
