I installed this Controller on my E-Bike, and it has considerably more power than my previous 1000W controller. It does 45km/h uphill and 60km/h downhill when running it on 48V, and I suspect the top speed can be increased further when running on 72V. Torque is insane and the wheel will spin out when using full throttle while stationary (remember to definitely use torque-arms to not destroy your dropouts). As for the quality of the controller, it is alright. The body is made out of metal, presumably aluminium, and the only complaint I would have is that the voltage adjustment knob was loose when it was shipped to me. However, it was a simple fix to tighten the knob. As for the wiring, the cables themselves were in good condition; however, they came with no instructions to speak of. I had to experiment with the wiring for nearly 3 hours before getting it right, as I had no idea which cables did what. It was easy enough to identify the hall, phase and power cables, but the throttle and ignition were a bit of a hassle. In order to make the controller function, power, phase, throttle and ignition cables need to be connected. The ignition can be bypassed by connecting the positive power cable with the thick red single wire, and the throttle on this unit is the Black, Blue, Red cable. I had to cut some connectors, strip the wires, and connect them manually for the throttle and ignition, but that worked out fine in the end. The direction in which the motor spins can be changed by connecting the learning cables (the two single white cables) together and turning the ignition on and off, and disconnecting the learning cables when the desired direction is reached. Some reviews mention that the controller dies when under load, but I have not encountered this issue at all. Overall, the controller is plenty powerful, is of OK quality, but comes with no wiring diagrams or instructions at all. I would recommend this product if you have previous knowledge of wiring controllers.

petergerhards Hello, To make your e-Bike have a throttle, you need (of course) a throttle, and then connect it's cables to the eBikes controller. If you don't know where the controller of the eBike is, it is usually where you connect the battery into. You may have to unscrew the box where the controller is to expose the cables. The throttle should have a connector that is (Black, Green, Red) and you simply connect it to the controller with the matching cables (Black, Green, Red). In some cases the throttle wire from the controller can be (Black, Blue, Red) instead.
