    To fuse or not to fuse?

    I'm new here and I was wrong to assume that "positive charger lead" was the positive wire from the battery charger........

    To fuse or not to fuse?

    I never thought of the charger as being a danger to my battery, Thanks! I have a Surge protector between the wall and charger. But if its a cheap charger, it could potentially damage an expensive battery.

    To fuse or not to fuse?

    wow great post! lost on this part? "ballast any inductive kick" what does that mean? So with a 36V battery with a BMS they only reason to use a fuse, is to protect the bike from myself when I accidently short circuit it.

    To fuse or not to fuse?

    lol it was just the first photo i found... Everybody, the above photo is not how to do it! One blade fuse is enough! On my bike its a 40amp fues like this one below. Not sure if its better or worse then a blade fuse, although with a blade fuse its easy to remove the fuse like a key for your bike.

    To fuse or not to fuse?

    On / off switch recommandation

    Are you saying if this little DIP switch if integrated in to the BMSs circuitry correctly, it will do the same job as pre-charging circuitry? How does it prevent the inrush of voltage to the controller?

    Izip battery pack confusion

    I've seen a lot of talk about pre-charge around here. Most of the threads I've read, the pre-charge is for a bike with a high voltage battery. Would i need a pre-charge for a setup like this?

    Done, here is a simple schematic i drew up from the continuity tests. This is how a izip controller and charger interacts with the battery pack.
