> [@Dave’s Magic Magnet vs others](https://community.electricforum.com/t/dave-s-magic-magnet-vs-others/19565/2): > > The mm is a start. It removes the speed limiter allowing any speed increase available. Next step is adding a battery or switching to light weight lithium. If budget allows I offer a 40hp a.c. motor kit that will increase speed and power. 40mph easily. $1500-$2000 plug in kit. Where can I get a magic magnet for my 99 gem ? ---

@Funjohnny - 1. Are you sure you have a 99 Gem? How much do you know about it? Is this a 72v car? Or maybe a 48v? 1. What motor do you have in this car? ---

When it grenades that anemic 3hp and he gets to buy a better one. 🤣 🤣 Definition “grenades”: the catastrophic destruction of your gem motor due to an owner over revving itbwhile the end bearing fails, pieces fly everywhere, often accompanied by a flash, fireball, and lots of smoke. © @Old_Houseboater . ---

I do, but it needs to be hard-wired. Different plug. Ps. I’m not sure it’s needed. Will your car run with sensor disconnected? ---

Thanks for the prompt reply! I haven’t tried running with the speed sensor disconnected. The motor thermostat and the speed sensor are on the same plug. I’ll unplug the sensor/thermostat plug and jumper the Thermostat back to the motor controller and see what happens. ---

Hi Dave I’ve come across your name few times now, recently bought 2007 Gem E4 gets to 25mph quick then holds. Will your magnet work on my car? I’ll try attaching pic of motor & controller. thx Mike [1mge@comcast.net](mailto:1mge@comcast.net) D&D Motor Systems model 170-501-0002B manftcr date 2/2022, serial #1244. 7.5 hp, 72 volt, current 95/8, rpm 4950.

Yes, will work perfectly to remove that 25mph speed limit. Standard settings will not limit until 40mph. 2007 speedometer can be set to read 0-40 corrected speed. ---

Great thx for reply, my son bought this Gem to tinker with so I’ll pass info on to him. We’d be happy with even low 30’s as then can safely drive on more local roads here in SW FL. Were waiting on front arm bushing delivery from NEV and installing front brake pads soon. If rides smooth & don’t need CV’s or ball joints then we’ll order magnet, what’s the latest price? thx again! ---
