Title: Linear Regen
Post by: Mikebf on January 10, 2019, 06:04:52 PM

New member, converting my trials bike to electric. Really cool to see a number of other doing the same thing.

I was wondering whether the regen functions as a switch or a linear input? I am looking to use it to simulate engine breaking effect.

Hi Mike and(https://i.imgur.com/evDSMvT.png)to the forum.

Most of the GM controllers only have a basic On or Off switched operation for the regen.

To achieve variable regen, you would need to have a controller that is designed to support it, along with some form of brake lever (or thumb throttle) with a variable voltage output signal to control it.

As you will no longer require a clutch lever on your converted bike, perhaps this lever could be adapted to control the level of regen in conjunction with a controller that supports variable regen.
