I noticed as I began throttling it up as usual. The power started skipping all over the place and it is skipping or stuttering in power flashing between green, yel;low and red. Power surges one moment, off the next then back on again while I hold the twist throttle. The batteries are about a year old sla's.
If I get a LifePO4 battery pack for it, I have seen the tie-in wiring job. Seems pretty simple but I do worry about the battery catching fire as I garage the bike at night. Have considered the Ping LifePO4 battery maybe 36volt and longer amp hours for range. Is the sputtering power a sign my battery is dying out? Thanks all.
PS, the Pedal assist never worked on this bike from the getgo. Also I discovered if I put the sla pack on the left side and flip the switch there is no power to the left side, only the right side.
