"Edge" 1500W DD hub with 35mm wide stator, thin laminations, aluminum core

If you want to experiment, try the 18-FET. The Cyclone is tiny, but not sine wave, so a little more "buzzy" during acceleration. The scooter 18-FET controllers might be sine wave, but very large.

the ideal controller for this motor is the 9 X 9 tiny layout of the Cyclone controller, but with 3077 FETs, and a sine wave control chip. No nobody makes that combo yet...

Nothing wrong with my old 17-Ah pack, but...just ordered a 24-Ah to see what all the fuss is about...

here is some notes from last ride
Update: The awesome Luna mighty 52v 24ah GA triangle Battery
Today is the day That I have been waiting for, really happened by chance I had some spare time and great weather 84 Deg.
went for the long ride to check out the system the results
Total distance 54.3 miles all motor no peddling
top speed 35.6 MPH
average speed 11.7
when I left battery at 58.7V
when I returned battery at 50.6
used 8.1 V and 17.4 ah
WH per Mile 17.1
Pulled 50.14 max amps
The set up performed perfect lots of hills and stop and go traffic
This battery is the bomb and the awesome edge 2600W DD no noise no gears to shift the sine wave programmable controller is sweet also
I think it could do better with a 24 fett set up instead of the 12 fett that I am running the controller is wasting energy in the form of heat
cheers Billy

Just some thoughts on the Edge with the Luna 52v 24ah battery
This is a awesome set up for performance and distance
The only draw back that I can see is the recommended sine wave controller 12 fett It gets warm to a little hot when pushing
the 50 amps continuous that the luna Battery puts out
I have made a few changes I removed the controller from the bag and placed it out in the open air
I will see if that helps if not there is a 18 fett version of this controller that I might try
Don't get me wrong under normal riding conditions it is ok but when you set it on hi mode and push the 2600w that the battery will do
it warms up too quick for my taste so I will try this new set up and see what's up
yesterday did a 54+ mile run all motor and it had battery to spare when I got back
I love the motor but I am totally impressed with the battery
any one wanting this kind of performance and distance this set up is well worth the dough
about $1500 for the gear to get it done Motor/battery/controller/throttle/cycle analyst
Cheers Billy.

Wow just in time they are out of this pak now.

[calfee20]

I got the battery yesterday about noon. I went straight to the barn to mount it. I used the free triangle bag and some 2 foot wire ties that power grid workers use. The wire ties support the battery inside the bag so I shouldn't have a bag failure. The bottom rear of the bag rests on my upside down BBSHD and I cut up a water bottle bracket to locate the bottom of the bag laterally. Three point suspension.

Today is cold and rainy. Tomorrow will be cold but there is a hike and bike in town on the path that borders my farm and the hike part is on a neighboring farm. I will do the bike part but not the hike. I am not fond of hiking or the wood ticks. Then it will start raining Saturday afternoon and turn into pouring on Sunday. Monday will be bleah but Tuesday things should finally turn around here. I will head out west of Providence to a path I haven't tried. It should be a few degrees warmer out there, mid 70s. The path is also 20 miles one way so I will try the longest trip on the bike yet. I will have to find a lunch stop at the half way point and then stop at Somerset Creamery for the first time this year. If the weather hold I will visit a different path every day next week I can't wait.

Dudes greetings just a little up date on how the mighty Edge 2600w DD with the Luna Big battery is doing.
Tried something different today went off road the wife's big idea, travelled 6 miles very gnarly much worse than a off road mountain bike chores
very muddy very bumpy jolt your inners out stuff, steep wet climbs path was full of holes and logs the mud at times was soupy.
Not much fun for me with a mountain bike with Hook Worms on it but the wife likes to see If I can ride other than on the asphalt at 65 years old.

The bike performed power wise very well on mode 3 it was un useable mode 2 a little better but not much still to much power
mode 1 seemed to work.
But I noticed that the controller was getting very warm I believe it is because of how the controller is set up
even on mode 1 low power it is still reading on the CA 50.1 amps, it is limited to 50 amps and it is getting it all.
I have not even set it up to receive the 70 amps burst it already wants to lift the front end and in mud it will spin the rear tire.

I tried to adjust the perimeters on the controller but it would not accept my inputs and customer service from the vendor is not their
I have tried 3 times with no help,
I don't mind that I will just change where I spend money and move on
But what concerns me is the 12 fett that was recommended It just is not enough for this Battery, Make no mistake about it gentlemen the Luna 52v 24ah is the Bomb accept no substitutes.
SO I will find a 24 fett sine wave that I can program the way I want and see what that does
I am also asking Luna if they can make me a 72v 33ah triangle out of the same cells as the 52v 24ah it would be a 20s 10p set up
That will probably be the next evolution along with a controller that can handle it
from what I have seen and read the little Edge 1500w will handle 4500w I know it handles 2600w no problem
I love the set up and with a few more tweaks it should be even more awesome
Cheers to all Ole Billy

C20 dude I am getting stoked you are almost in battery heaven
I am thinking about getting another 52v 24ah battery and run them together for 106v
Tank bag style

[calfee20]

No I only have a vanilla BBSHD but that may change soon. It shipped yesterday so I should see it soon. With my 11 amp hour slim line added in I should have no less than a 75 mile range. No more range anxiety.

[Green Werks]

c20 when you get the big battery stick it on the charger and give it a full charge
then enjoy is your controller set up for 50 amps?

[calfee20]

No my order status is awaiting fulfillment. I ordered a couple of short wire extensions with it. I hope the $10 wires are not holding it up. I will have to shoot off an email.

[Green Werks]

Well I just ordered that big triangle. I got a rent check I didn't think I would see this year. I haven't had a financial planner in more than 35 years. I still have to try to keep myself in check though. That hub I was talking about would cost $1000 with a cycle analyst and the wheel build I want to try. Then a second BBSHD so I have a complete second bike. There is another frame I have been thinking of not to mention the trike I want to try.

Yeah I am keeping myself in check.

C20 Did you get your Battery yet how do you like it

[Dale H]

If I get hit and survive it, I will own their @sses you can believe that!!! I try to be courteous, get over when I can and all, but this was a two lane road I commute on almost daily, or every day I get to work anyway. First time this has happened since I moved from Trenton Ga. Then today I took a different route and while making a left I cut it a little short in front of, get this, two cops! They never batted an eye and I just kept cruising, thanking God I didn't cause a scene!! Getting tricky out there, gotta watch every thing I do. Be safe folks.....

[Green Werks]

That's great news Bill, glad you are now happy with your setup. I'm still cruisin around at 30mph on the flats waiting for this 1000 watt to bite it so maybe I can get a bigger one, ( justification to the financial consultant in this house lol), just hate that the hills here are so hard on it. But I still use it everyday I get to work, as long as it isn'r raining. Had an idiot in a car ride behind me today for like a mile, he could have passed at any time, suddenly starts layning on his horn, passes and nearly cuts me off. I was doing 32, speed limit is 40. Some people just don't get it . At least he didn't hit me..... Ride on safely man, later

Dale the world is full of ass holes avoid them at all cost if you get hit skip calling the ambulance just call your lawyer then you can buy any ebike you want

[Green Werks]

C20 welcome to the club you will never go back now 50a continuous 24ah is the bomb the only way to fly
tell us how awesome it is when you get it hooked up
Bill
