Electric Motor Kit For Upright Trike

[HMS_Dave]

The regs are 250w continuous Peak power can go above this for short periods,
It is the controller that limits the power not the motor . A 250w max power system would be worse than useless .

Most 36v controllers are rated at 250w but with a current limit set around 15a max current limit (fold back current ) so that makes 540w max power a normal everyday viable power output.
The 15mph +/- 10% limit is the only realistically testable part of the specification.

Ahh I see, Thanks for that Emma.

We have just fitted this to a tadpole , 48v 12ah 250watt with torque sensors.
Impressed so far and an easy fit for under £700 from Woosh.

lots of support if needed

report below but try Woosh on line.
They will advise on fitting if you send a photo .

+1 for Woosh being helpful. Their website of kits is here: http://wooshbikes.co.uk/cart/#/category/uid-3/cd-conversion-kits

Emma, which cables did you have to extend, and how ? The TSDZ2 kit as supplied is suited to DF frames with BB and Handlebars in "expected" places. Of course, recumbents are very different.....

to put the display low on the boom for folding we increased the speed sensors 3way cable by 80cm and the 5 way remote switch by 80cm as well . The Battery leads needed an extension just under 100cm to give enough slack for folding . The hardest part was trying to find 4" of straight 22mm bar to weld up a display mount whilst living 1/2 way up a welsh mountain

SO - did you use extension cables , or did you splice the 3-way and the 5-way cables yourself >

extension cables are not available, Woosh did supply the cable and l spliced them all , we tidied it all up using spiral wrap
