I have an e-bike motor with a system voltage of 36 V or 48 V. Isn’t that too much power for the Cable 6V DC?

E-bike drive systems typically use a 36 V or 48 V system voltage (in rare cases also 24 V or 52 V). However, this value describes only the internal voltage of the battery system and has no direct impact on the accessory or light output of your motor.

At these ports, the 36/48 V system voltage is never present; instead, they provide a regulated output voltage of 6 V or 12 V. This voltage is what matters when choosing the correct accessory cable.

To ensure your setup works reliably, please check the following beforehand:

1. What output voltage does your motor’s accessory/light port provide?
   → 6 V or 12 V

2. Are additional consumers connected?
   → e.g., front/rear lights on the same port

Based on the output voltage, select the correct cable:

Our cables include integrated voltage conversion and work reliably with the SP Connect Charging Module and the Charging Anti Vibration Module. They convert the e-bike’s input voltage to the charging voltage required by your smartphone—regardless of whether your motor provides 6 V or 12 V.
