60A constant discharge for 1000w Bafang BBSHD

[Frank123]

Will a battery with the following specs work with the 1000w 52v Bafang BBSHD- I am scared that 60A constant discharge current is too much? Nominal Volt: 52V Rated Capacity: 40AH Max Constant Discharge Current: 60A Peak current: 120A

Amps are supplied on demand and are variable. The spec is a max for your battery, it will supply only what the motor pulls.

Voltage is constant and not subject to demand.

60 Amp at 50 volts would be 3,000 watts, not likely you will be pulling that, at least not for long.

Thank you for the clear explanation

The new 52-volt BBSHD’s are capped at drawing 28 amps, well below that battery’s 60-amp max capacity. This 28-amp rating cannot not be changed unless you reflash the controller, which will void the warranty, and if not done correctly, can fry/brick the controller.
