Speed Magnet Proof
Hey BGW fanatics,
I'll keep this short and sweet. 2008 Club Car Precedent, 5HP AMD aftermarket speed motor. I put the 4 pole speed magnet from TahoeDave in my cart. The following photos are: 1. Up small incline in he neighborhood, maybe 8 degrees (blue ridge living👍👍😁) 2. Flat (as possible) ground. 3. ~20 degree downhill slope. If you're thinking about getting one, do it. Pull the trigger. My wheels are 10" but tire height same as stock... |

Re: Speed Magnet Proof

Re: Speed Magnet Proof
Looks good! The only thing I would worry about is the downhill speed. At 30 MPH with stock tires that motor is screaming. I would be concerned about it coming apart internally. I read somewhere not to exceed your flat ground speed down hill because of that possibility.

Re: Speed Magnet Proof
30 mph had me white knuckles. I don't ever plan on going over 25, even downhill. Too much risk involved... I feel like a crash at that speed or loss of control would be catastrophic to the cart, and myself as well. I'm just glad to have unleashed the power of the 5 horses on flat ground. I kept the magnet that was OEM to the motor so if it is too unsafe, it'll be placed back. Thanks for he info though!

Still think a $15 temp guauge with the probe (true) duct taped on the motor is a cheap and easy insurance policy. |

Re: Speed Magnet Proof
Ok I'll bite. Is this sensor a proper type:
DROK Micro LED Digital -55 to 125℃ Temperature Meter Gauge Panel DC 7-30V 12V/24V Temp Tester Monitor with Bright Blue Digital Display and DS18B20 Waterproof Sensor Probe https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00D7AEKMO..._eTZFzb9BJDWK3 Looks like an easy 2 wire install and one of the few that has a long thermocouple wire length. Also, what is a safe running temperature to know? |

Re: Speed Magnet Proof
I think ScottyB is working on a temp gauge. Maybe he'll chime in.
