This controller made my Surron 197% better... (BAC4000 installation + review)

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

I put a BAC4000 upgraded controller on my Surron X! If you're looking at upgraded controllers for your e-bike, this is the video for you.
In this video:
- Why the stock surron controller isn't the best...
- How to install a BAC4000 or BAC8000 controller on your surron
- BAC4000 test ride and reaction (wheelies, settings, regen braking, etc.)
- BAC4000 review after testing the controller!
- More wheelies
Green Line Engineering (GLE) also gave me a discount code if you're looking to get one of their controllers: 5% off with coupon code LOGAN5OFF

    Hey I know this video is a year old now but I you inspired me to get a controller to use with the stock battery. However, I am having issues with the bike cutting out when I lightly ease onto the throttle. I have been in contact with support but they have been unhelpful saying I need get an android device in order for them to remotely connect to my bike. until that comes in, I was wondering if you had all the parameters for your tune for the GLE dashboard app so I can mimic them to see if that will remedy my issue. Great content and I appreciate any help

    Do you know good eggrider v2 settings for Surron stock 60v no bypass & bac4000 controller??? I have the egg Rider V2 coming in the mail, and I'm afraid when I get it I'm going to be completely lost on where to set the settings when it comes to voltage, wattage, kilowatts, throttle, etc. Do you have any references or anything??? Also, the GLE dashboard app doesn't work with my Android phone, it only works with older Android phones. That's why I'm reduced to buying the egg Rider V2 to program my bike.

    that’s weird - there should be zero delay. once you’re past the throttle dead zone, does it respond immediately to throttle inputs? It could be either your throttle deadzone making it feel slow, or it could be your ramp-up time is too long. save your current tune so you can come back to it, then start experimenting with those values

    Do these aftermarket controllers last longer than stock? My controller has a "over current protection fault" it works only when it's sunny and warm. It was very hard to diagnose. Now I learn that controllers are like tires and chains, they have to be replaced. Going in I knew that the battery would wear out. I have a second battery. But then I come to find out that controllers also wear out. So it's a 1500 dollar battery and add a 1000 dollar controller... I can buy many gallons of gas...

    Totally stock battery, no bypass or anything. Ironically my range actually went up, partially because the stock surron controller was so inefficient, and also because I use regen a lot now. I maybe get an extra 10-15% range on average. I haven’t measured top speed with a GPS yet, but my friend with the same setup said he went from 45mph->55mph

    No bypass :) They did send me their kit to try out, so may do that in a future video if you’re interested. Install was crazy easy with the right tools, it took maybe an hour. Tuning is just a matter of setting 6kw for a stock battery and that’s about it! I like EMB and electro & co, but I think GLE wins on configurability and regen which are both important to me. The App is pretty cool too 😎

But a nice in between stock and that is bypassing your stock battery. Chi batteries sell there batteries with bypassed bms it's not dangerous you just gotta not overdrawn the battery or you'll damage the cells and also not try andbpull too much power more than what the cells are rated for.
