Re: 48V motor and 36V battery

Doesn't matter what motor you pick, just create an A setup at 48v and a B setup with all the same stuff except at 36v and compare the curves. Thanks Amberwolf, for the confirmation that it will work and I am not too crazy..

Can I charge my eBike from an inverter?

Can I Charge My Ebike With An Inverter? As a whole, you can charge an eBike with an inverter by plugging the inverter into a car, wall outlet, solar panel, or another electrical setup. Hook the eBike's battery into the inverter, ensuring it's capable of 1000W to power the vast majority of bike batteries.

How long does it take to charge 48V electric bike?

A lithium ion ebike battery that is fully depleted will take 3.5 to 6 hours to recharge. Batteries that still have a partial charge when you start charging will take less. In addition, the last hour or so of a charge is used to "top-off" the cells, and you don't have to wait for that process to be completed.

Can you put 48V batteries in a 36V golf cart?

It all depends on your battery bank used with this 36V to 48V conversion. can only be accomplished through installing a 48V motor capable of higher torque, or installing a 48V controller with a higher current limit (amperage).

Can I use a 48V battery on a 24V motor?

Re: Advice: 24V controller with 48V battery

The controller will take the full battery power. A very rare few have an over volt protection that will shut them down, but that's not the norm. A very rare few might be built on the 48v platform and be tuned for lower voltage, and be fine.

How far should a 36V golf cart go?

A 36 volt golf cart is adequate for 2 to 4 passenger use when you are primarily using it on flat a flat surface. The average drive time or range for a 36 volt DC system is about 30 miles on a full charge. The 48 volt golf cart offers many more advantages in all 2, 4 or 6 passenger models.

What is the difference between 36 and 48 volt golf cart?
