The controller was not the issue, it is the battery's BMS tripping at about 3-4 amps (it should be good for 70). The controller was just self limiting to 5 amps which gave very similar symptoms. My problem now is I have to front the expensive return shipping on the battery and no new battery is coming my way from Luna, they just plan on refunding my battery purchase and then I'm on my own to find another. This whole process will tie up any money I have to buy another battery for weeks, not to mention waiting then for that to ship. Because they sent me a bum battery the whole project is taking weeks and months rather than days. So I redact my kudos to Luna at this point.
