Re: Upgrade decision - need help.
So no additional torque from just the new controller vs. the stock controller?
Also have a question about the charger for the 12v leg - my automatic charger is a deep cycle/marine charger - starts at 10 amps, but when charge current reaches @ 5 amps, it switches to 2 amps for the remainder of the charge. If I just leave it hooked up, it turns on periodically to check charge state, trickles it back up, and then shuts off again. It will never be normally plugged in for longer than overnight - am I good with this charger? |

It sounds like you will be okay but better to ask somebody like gornoman who did that for more than a year. I am sure a certain amount of battery monitoring is needed to assure a balanced pack. |

Re: Upgrade decision - need help.
Thanks guys!! The info available on here to guys new the cart scene is phenomenal.
I cut some 3/16" reinforced gasket materiel (I had it readily available) and put it under the wheel wells tonight to close off the gap between the body and the battery compartment to keep the tires from throwing mud over the controller and solenoid. Hard to describe and even harder to get a pic but I'll try. Hopefully I can get the thermolin plastic formed into a decent cover over the next few weeks - my prosthetics guy dropped a sheet off last night - traded him some venison ground meat for it :-) |

Re: Upgrade decision - need help.
Pics of the wheel well mod to keep my controller protected a little more from the mud... did both sides. Why did they design a gap there in the first place?

Re: Upgrade decision - need help.
Nicely done! I remember when I got my TXT from the reseller, it had a "plug" of grass clippings on each side at that location. Never saw them until I removed the rear body shell. What a mess!
