Default Re: Cart #2 build

Here are some pics of the nearly finished product. Took it out for a test drive and ran very slowly. Had plenty of power when you hit the pedal, even chirped the tires on smooth concrete but wouldn't go over about 10 mph. I charged up the batteries last night and will try it out again at lunch. If I am still having problems I'll post all the pertinent data to see if anybody can help.

Looks great. Not a criticism, but in my state, in order to be street legal, the original warning label on the dash must be visible.

Mine's not street legal, and I've never had a problem, and most neighborhood buggies aren't, and neither County has ordinances. The state defines a street legal buggy, but it's up to each local jurisdiction to allow them.

Still running very slow, 10 - 11 Mph, after full charge so here's the data:

Series motor, newly rebuilt by Plum Quick
Less than one year old batteries, properly maintained.
Pack voltage 37.9 Each battery 6.2
400 amp Alltrax controller
4 gauge wires
HD solenoid
HD reversing contactor

Nothing getting hot or even warm for that matter after test run. As I said before it seems to have plenty of power when you hit the pedal but just no speed. Could this be in the plunger adjustment in the ITS?

although Plum Quick rebuilt it.....HOW did they rebuild it? what I mean were they to do the Bandit upgrade? or of their other upgrades, or something custom.....OR were they going to do a stock rebuild......you didn't say.

Sorry for the confusion. This is a new build. Nothing like the one in my sig except this controller, solenoid, and reversing contactor did come out of it. As far as the motor rebuild I think it was just a stock rebuild but with the controller, wires, etc I thought I would get around 18 mph???

Didn't go to 48 on this one. Is 10 - 11 mph really as fast as this thing should go?

it should be a little faster, but that's about it...... I too have a series cart.....which is why when I totally redid my cart.....I went with a completely new high speed motor. and still being at 36v.....I'm at 27 mph.

Rules are really lax here in SC. I don't think there is anything about labels here.
