6389 Motor with 14S Battery

Hi guys! I want to run a higher capacity battery with my single 6389 brushless motor. I already have a 14S4P battery that I would like to use. This is going on a custom electric scooter I built. It needs lots of torque for the uphill off-road stuff. I will get the appropriate Trampa VESC for that voltage as well. Will the motor handle this ok? Thanks again.

No problem: 52v 16ah Samsung 40T HIGH Current Lithium ion E-Bike Battery | Bicycle Motor Works

Specs: HIGH Current 14S 4P pack with Samsung 21700 40T cells

16 amp hours

Dimensions 12” x 4” x 3”

30 amp continuous output. 70 amp continuous.

This company has great feedback on eBay and one of the few I can find in the US that sells 21700 40T custom cell packs in the form factor size I needed.

A 40T pack should be able to do 120A continuous, so its probably not constructed with high currents in mind.
