AXE4844 install today, clarify Fuse, and another Q

[eminence_front]

Hey ya'll. Happy saturday.


Seeing as how it doesn't appear it's ever gonna stop raining here in Texas, i went on a little mini shopping spree this week on the bay and Amazon.


I have a 2000 EZ Fleet car that's still on 36v.

I plugged up my AXE4844 today to program it, and noticed the brake current setting from the prev. owner was set at like 80%. Seems a little aggressive, for plug brake current. Should I maybe consider 50/50 ?


Also, It was a used controller so I didn't get the high-current inline fuse I see them shipping with new. Anyone know of a reasonably accessible retail outlet to pick one up ? Or can I hit Grainger or something for this ? Prefer not to waste the weekend waiting on a Fuse.



Only other thought I had, was concerned with current draw on the stock motor. It's pretty much just going to be a servicable motor until I can get the cart rewired this week and I'm not overly concerned about saving it, but I left the max current at 400. I've seen +/- on running big tires on these stock motors with 400A and obviously it's not long for this type of work.

Anybody buy these used motors or take cores for credit ? I don't have a use for it once my upgraded motor is in.


Thx, and thx for all the help I have been able to gather on my own from past threads and search. I can't thank everyone directly so I'll thank the community experts (you know who you are.)

Thanks.
