Stock vs upgraded battery

Run TORP on the pack that came with your bike, and go further whenever you are ready.

Your stock battery

Every TORP controller keeps talking to your bike's stock BMS, so it safely unlocks more power from the pack you already own than other controllers can reach, with its built-in protection still active.

An upgraded pack

A higher-voltage 72 V or 80 V pack lifts the ceiling considerably, on the TC500 2.0 and the TC1000 2.0. The controller stays the same either way, so the battery is an upgrade you can make later.

SurRon Light Bee, questions

TC500 or TC1000: which controller fits my SurRon Light Bee?

Both fit the SurRon Light Bee with the correct bike-specific kit. TC500 works with the stock motor or a TORP TM25. TC1000 also supports the TM40 Pro. With the stock battery and motor, both controllers have the same quoted power, so choose with your future setup in mind.

Can I upgrade my Light Bee controller without replacing the battery?

Yes. TC500 and TC1000 work with the Light Bee's stock battery and motor. Available power depends on the battery, motor and settings. An aftermarket battery can unlock more power; it is not required just to fit a TORP controller.

Which TORP motor upgrades fit the SurRon Light Bee?

The TM25 and TM40 Pro are the TORP motor options for the Light Bee. TM25 works with TC500 or TC1000; TM40 Pro pairs with TC1000. Check the battery requirements and estimated output of the complete setup before choosing a motor.

Compare TORP motor specifications
Is installation plug-and-play?

TORP kits use the stock connectors for the bike they are designed for, with no cutting or splicing. Choose the kit for your exact model and follow its installation instructions.

Read the installation guides
Are the upgrades under warranty?

Yes, TORP controllers and motors come with a 2-year warranty.
