The torque comes from the current (amps), speed from the voltage.
With all that in mind, what is the best way to get the most torque out of a Q100H geared front hub motor? Or maybe a better way to ask that (if I am understanding correctly) is how much amp's can a Q100H handle? Do any of the bottle battery built-in controllers have amp adjustments to get more torque?
