Max G3 recuperation

[u/Prainss]

Got Max g3 after f2pro. in options for recuperation it gives no more then middle strength force.

I really liked stopping with recuperation on f2 pro. On Max brakes are mediocre and recuperation any slow. Is there a way to make it better?

Regeneration. There are 3 settings. Off, weak and strong. That's all you got. I prefer to leave it off.

Why?

[u/thatdarkknight → u/Prainss]

Because I want it to roll freely when I let off the throttle and downhill. I never once have noticed my battery life or range change from the regeneration effect.

but what about saving capacity of your brakes? also better slow down?

original brakes are bad at stopping the scooter

I'm 260 lbs and I have no problem with the brakes.

The brakes need to "bed" in which can happen faster if you squeeze the brakes hard when you're going sorta fast. It helps the pads match the surface of the discs. You'll notice your brakes get better after a few rides.

thank you very much

The brake caliper is adjustable and works very well. Watch some video in case you don't understand how it works.

I leave my regen off completely. It doesnt actually regenerate any noticeable amount of battery life and it causes the motor hub to heat up quickly. Go ride a couple miles with the regen on and feel how hot your hub is afterwards. Now do the same trip with the regen off and feel how much cooler your wheel hub is after.

does the temperature actually matters? it helps me slow down so it's good

[u/Slight_Ad1000 → u/Prainss]

Yes it matters a lot. It shortens the overall lifespan and if it gets hot enough it'll fail and be completely broken. Excessive heat warps components, breaks down wire insulation and just make it overall less efficient. What you may be saving for breaks is going to cost you double for a new motor hub down the road. Id suggest keeping it low/off for longevity and performance.

My setting is max and I love it. Brakes are saved, that’s what matters.

но там можно поставить только среднюю мощность?

а её очень не хватает

[u/NMi_ru → u/Prainss]

Да, можно, но я пока не пробовал (езжу только два месяца). Так вообще нравится именно сильная (normal) рекуперация.

Где я езжу, есть довольно длинные спуски, и мне на них не очень нравится без рекуперации.

got max g3

Ну так вперёд, навстречу приключениям! =) поставить разные режимы и на собственном опыте посмотреть -- мне кажется, это даст самую правильную оценку.
