I find that I get the most consistent results by powering the LEDs from 12V with a 510ohm resistor. Also saves me from having to redo any wiring from the switches.
I just found a treasure trove of XB-600 related work over at visforvoltage forums and it looks like you can get 30mph at 60v and 36mph at 72v. Probably even better for me since I'm at the low end of the weight scale.
All I have to do to increase the output of the controller from 70amp to 95amps is shunt a few connections on the controller itself. This will save me $40.
If I want to go up to 72v I would need to replace all of the mosfets.
Based on the experiences of others I probably do not need to replace the DC-DC converter either. I am still going to be replacing the stock voltmeter, speedometer, and turn signal relay though.
All very good news because now all that is left for me to purchase is an extra battery and a new charger.
