Remember when we hooked up that 52 v 20 amp/hr battery to my rose ave, it wouldn't work at full charge but once it ran down a bit it makes the bike fast. oh and the display wouldn't work most of the time with the 52 v

[@noobygrinchz]

Do u know if a 48v would be ok?

[@biskero]

just add a splitter to make the 2 batteries in parallel, same 36 voltage, so no need to switch plugs. The 2 batteries must be at the same voltage.

[@xrumba]

Hi, I'm a girl so i don't know much lol..can you explain how you splitter. what cable or connector did you use? if you can send me a link from amazon so i can buy it.. thanks!!

How did you get your secondary battery to shut off when the original battery is shut off internally?

[@danielone06]

Hey Brian, Cool Video !!! I use Anderson Connectors for my solar panels they are pretty much bullet proof.

[@protonspring5244]

What lighting system do you use for the Z1? AFAIK, there isn't a connector for it. . just curious.

[@briandhoward6137]

I made it, light is 1050 lumens , powered by an rc car battery with an off on light switch, 24 hours of run time before recharge needed.

[@haroldc3328]

What about if you connect both batteries in parallel, but leave the battery switch OFF and then when one runs out of juice switch it OFF and the other one ON, could it work?

[@grandmaster-grouch]

its not ideal for the bms. running parallel also ups the amps that the pack outputs. to make sure you dont have battery issues. running them separately is ideal. it would allow the bms maintain equal charge across all cells. cheers

[@4SeasonsPowersports]

@@grandmaster-grouch I think you misunderstood ElTeslaDeGoku's question. If I'm reading this correct they are asking if can hard wire both batteries with a Y connector, but only run one at a time. Basically wire in parallel, but only power on one battery at at time. Effectively achieving the same concept of this video, but not having to disconnect the batteries each time you swap. Just power one off and then power the second battery on.

Hi! Interested in getting a second battery pack for my son's Z1 - please let me know if can get one by xmas to do this upgrade with him!

[@robertmotion]

Added 36v 20ah battery and still kept my mudflap in the front by just using longer screws. It has been magical. I barely use the original battery anymore and can average about 35 miles at consistent speeds of 20-25mph without worrying about “Will this drain my battery too much”....and that’s just with the “backup battery”. (Did a speed hack too, following Brian.) Also, I pulled the original battery Anderson connector through the small opening at the bottom of the controller under the seat, zip-tied them to side of frame and voila...:no hanging wires on side or unsightly wires just dangling, keeping the aesthetics of the Super73. It’s a tight fit and takes time to get right but if you are like me and don’t won’t wires hanging everywhere...well worth the effort and end result👌🏾 Anyone looking to upgrade to dual battery and you have a Z1 - invest the extra money and purchase a 36v 20ah battery (~ $346 USD)....you’ll thank yourself later. Increasing your amp-hours is key to “how long can I ride?”, so if u can afford it go with the max amp-hours which is 20ah. Z1 comes stock with a 36v 11.4ah. The difference is night and day!!! Maxing your amp-hours to 20ah, you will definitely notice increase in takeoff, speed duration, mileage range....and more importantly you will increase peace of mind. Ebike are supposed to be all fun!!! Hope this helps someone who was stuck like me. /Bklyn👑

I average about 25-30 miles on this battery alone....and can't recall the las time i used the stock battery (36v 11ahas i consider it as my backup battery. with both i cool easily do 35-40 miles. hope this helps /Bklyn👑

To discharge yes you can, but the batteries have to match ah, and when change fully they have to be within 2amps of each other or you will have major problems. But to charge them it has to be separated.

Put a wye cable so both batteries are being used at once, it’ll keep the temperatures down and you won’t have to switch later because you are already running them in parallel 👍🏾

Only if you cut the stock battery wires and add a plug,

Your link us misleading. I bought a battery from your link and found there's no charger. The pic shows there's a charger and other peoeple received a charger. The connection head is not even there. its not returnable. you need to remove that link.

[@briandhoward6137]

This is the first time that I she heard of this happening, also the link is 2 years old. Others have used it in the past and no issues. Also you can buy a charger it's a very simple task. I'll remove the link

Who did you order it from

@@briandhoward6137 I ordered from the link provided in the description. the wires coming from the battery don't have the connector attached.

I’ve been looking at the Z1, but sitting on the battery, quite literally, is giving me pause. If the pack malfunctions, it doesn’t seem like a super safe spot to be, no? Not trying to go from Mike to Michelle.

Do you think this would still work fine if I put a 30ah 36volt battery ?? Instead of the 12ah

[@briandhoward6137]

Absolutely it would, the AH on a battery is like the battery fuel tank, the bigger the ah the bigger the fuel tank , ah will only affect range
