Bought one from ebay, very cheap, 50 dollars.
Perfect scooter (best handling, firm on the ground, nice speed,neat battery capacity,etc).
This a Tutorial on how to make your lime-S scooter the Best in the block scooter (>40km/h scooter..)

How to change it to an EVEN BETTER scooter:

1) Get the scooter:

2) take out the garbage: Scooter controller, display,etc:
Image
Image

3) Buy a 350watt scooter motor controller with display controller: 40 dollars:

4) Cut of the original cables from the original controller because they are going to be used in the Hall sensor cable to the motor.

6) Use the following schematic and connect all the wires from the motor, original scooter throttle button, lights,etc.

The only cables to use are:
-3 Motor phase wires
-5 wires from the hall sensor from the motor
- Positive and negative wires from the battery (use the original connector from the original controller to connect it to the battery)
- Display connection --> directly to the display connection
-Accelerator --> connect to the original throttle switch on the handlebar.

PS: for the lights, the controller has 36V output but lights are 4.5Volt therefore you need a stepdown converter 36V to 4.5Volts (very cheap 3 dollars on aliexpress).

7) buy a box which can handle all the wires,cables,etc (3 dollar box):

I have cut the inner side of the box and rounded it so that it fits nicely over the fork handle. See the pictures to know what I mean.

8) Alter the controller so that it enables maximum speed:
Change the internal shunt in the PCB inside (you will find it in EVERY motor controller)) and put it a much thicker one.
This will bypass the speed limit and power to the scooter to enable max speeds of up to 40km/h (25mph)...

9)Enclosure all the cables, controller inside the box and .. voilá..
Here you have the finest and most powerful scooter on the market:

10) Program the Display Parameters on your scooter motor controller as this:
Press "+" and "-" button for 3 seconds to enter parameter settings:

Choose:
P1=2 (brightness level of the display)
P2=0 (km/h) or =1 (mph)
P3=36V (battery voltage)
P4=0 (sleep time=0)~
P5=0 (NO Power assist mode)
P6=8 (8 inch wheels)
P7=30 (normal number of magnets)
P8=100 (max speed)
P9=0 (Zero start)
P10=1 (NO pedal assist, or maximum power on start)
P11=24 (Boost sensivity)
P12=5 (max boost strength)
P13=5 (Magnetic steel disc type)
P14=20 (max amps to motor)
P15=29 (minimum voltage allowed)
P16= used to clear odometer recordings (reset kilometers made)
P17=0 (NO cruise control)
P18=100 (100% display speed)
P19=1 (No gear enabled)
P20=0 (Protocol Nº2)


Now on the Display use "+" button to set the Throttle (THL) to 2 or 3, 3 his high speed 45km/h!!..
The Scooter is So fast it is difficult to believe..
Faster than any scooter I have ride on :mrgreen:

Here you have :-)
Have a nice scooter!!.

Hello all,
I bought it in Ebay, I think they sell them on auctions when they want to replace with new models.

Yes, I will put a video for you to see the speed 😊

The box: any box will do, I used those for electrical use, take the back of it and cut a circular hole with the diameter of the pole (handle bar).
I will post pictures for you to see.

In case you u need to know how the battery is like as I did, I bought it with a broken battery.

I replaced the internal 30 amps fuse and way to go, a new battery was born !.. 😁

here are some more pictures of the Beast :mrgreen:
I have read that many people are saying that you need to have a 500watt motor controller, or a 350 watt motor wheel to get good speeds.

This original 250watt wheel has a lot of torque and allows me to get 45 km/h on it, the power is unbelievable.
Dont bother to change the wheel.
Any 350 watt motor controller will drive your scooter faster than you can think of(or drive. 😁)

The trick is to bypass the motor controller.
Other than that is purely unnecessary.

Here are some pictures with the paint color, the scooter all in pieces and the box showing how it was cut.

This week I will try to make a video for you to see the speed 😉
