The R&T turned out so nice that I gutted my Tomberlin today. Putting in either the same 48v Ranger controller or 72v Zone. Leaning toward 72v. I have one dci charger left and a bunch of cheap Sevcon s4 80v. Stay tuned. Good Tomberlin motor and controller will be for sale. Tomberlin uses ge sepex controller much like a Gem. Our Gem kit and pcb should make it near plug and play. ---

2 hrs in. Bolt battery prep with 400a smart bms and speedometer. ![MVC-012F](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/6/6e02a4e93b0f1c950f67657ed2e0eb896bc7f36c.jpeg) ![MVC-012F](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/f/f5f57edfb0f22a1b8ab327ceeef70115fef8a44e.jpeg) ---

Another 8 hrs to get it right. New model uses non-standard lead sequence for 16s connected to 20s bms. ![Screenshot_20200515-205403](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/3/3d61631f3a3c20709ac3b49bdc70c12f0e0c1db3.jpeg) ---

If you do enough projects, sooner or later, one will fit. The length of 16s Bolt, flange to flange, is exactly the id of my battery frame. Within a 1/16". ![MVC-012F](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/f/f5f57edfb0f22a1b8ab327ceeef70115fef8a44e.jpeg) ![MVC-013F](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/e/e2866d92a5e0da6b9ee1a04fcdb0ef8321ee44b4.jpeg) ![MVC-014F](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/c/cfee3c85390d777411714f9a66fdbcbc92e1f34d.jpeg) ---

No speedometer first try. App was set to a huge rolling radius. Set count to 23 and tire to 485. Speedometer works perfectly. @MikeKC You will need to do the same. Seeing the large numbers that were default in app, there is a slight chance that speedometer will work without using my scalar pcb. However connecting a 6โ€™ wire directly to encoder output canโ€™t be good. ๐Ÿ™‚ My board has a couple inch leads and has a high cmos input impedance.
