Motherfucker!*
Nov. 20th, 2008 01:19 amSo I'm in the process of finally re-assembling my EVTAmerica R-20 shitmobile. I put the new controller and DC-DC converter in, wired up the 13+ connections to get it to talk to everything, then tried to put the two batteries that sit next to the controller back in.
They don't fucking fit.
The new controller is basically slightly bigger than the old one somehow, possibly just in that the wires that stick out the front have some kind of black plastic strain relief or plug assembly that sticks into the battery bay at *least* an inch. It may also be longer overall, I can't tell, because I don't have the old once as reference anymore. Here is a picture of my unspeakable agony.

I have already sent off a message to the worthless fucks at EVTAmerica's tech support asking them what the fuck is going on. I look forward to text in my inbox that magically makes the problem go away without the intervention of a hack saw.
And *not* for use on the bike...
