Not to hijack the thread, but how would you beef up a T2 to 500amps? Ive never heard of this before. ---

Rodney, I think maybe we are saying the same thing, just with different terms and words? @diymatt was trying to put together a spreadsheet with the various controller settings and tweaks for performance because there doesn’t seem to be any kind of a list / map out there. All we seem to be able to find is bits and pieces scattered around. I have a spare controller that just came back from R4F, but I haven’t hooked it up yet. Is there a list somewhere with recommended settings for various useage patterns out there? ---

@lnwo Hi Dave, I finally got around to installing my magic magnet on my 02 GEM. On my GPS, the speed still seems to top out at 24/25mph. Any ideas? Thanks. Ian ---

If MM is working correctly speedometer shows 16mph at 25mph. Increased speed is available from 16-25. If Gem will go no faster, it needs taller gears, higher voltage, of field weakening. @Old_Houseboater knows all about the older cars. My guess it’s a battery deficiency not allowing another 5mph. ---

Thanks, yes speedometer is showing 16mph. Batteries are 3-month old Trojan 1275s, so hopefully not the issue. @Old_Houseboater, if you have any thoughts I’d love to hear them. Thanks. ---

Adding a Magic Magic magnet enables the car to utilize the bit of reserve power that is built in to the basic program. Usually 3 to 4 MPH. To gain additional performance the controller has to be reprogrammed.

Anybody interested in buying mine? I bought it this past July and only used it for like 3 days. Paid $125. Nothing wrong with it, just sold GEM. Will take $100 shipped to anywhere in lower 48! ---

Wait a week or two. If it doesn’t sell I’ll take it back. I don’t list them on Ebay anymore per an agreement. It would sell quick. ---

The mm can be adjusted with dip switches to correct speedometer. It is normally set to 1+3. A couple of them have the switches locked into the standard setting. Rather than replace the switches, I discounted them. ---
