    The lightest low kv RC-motor for 500w middrive

    I am trying to put together the lightest possbile middrive from scratch. Going lower diameter RC motors will in general terms meen bigger kv ratings. So I guess my challenge is to find the ultimate solution in terms of total weight (and sice) including reductions... Does anybody have experience...

    NO... That is a by my experience a bad idea, no mather how carefull you are. Go for a desent BMS system, and a bulk-charger. Problem with balance charging, is that you are running unprotected when driving. While doing this I have killed 10% of my cells over a 30-day period (I only run up to 60...

    Hello. I just recieved the beta-product. It has been tested and found working beautifully on some custom packs we had laying around in the shop. We want to mount it to our service-bike that we use to get around to our customers when service-calls is needed. If I have understood the information...

    Discharged to deep (LiPo pack w/ bms)

    Ok, I understand that I should have mentioned that this is a picture where the sense-wires are disconnected. I thought people would understand that I do not run the BMS without these. Just did not have a good picture of it complete connencted.... :wink:

    Discharged to deep (LiPo pack w/ bms)

    Oki. Little update. I am seeing some wierd behaviour from my BMS system I think. The pack is constructed of The Good-priced 4s 20C Hardcase LiPo`s from HK. Two and two put upon each other and 12awg leads soldered together into 8awg. It has a D131 80A BMS and closed off with supersticky tape...

    Discharged to deep (LiPo pack w/ bms)

    Hello. I have a little challenge in my hands. I discharged my 2P20S LiPo pack to deep for my charger to start charging it. I removed parts of the enclousing tape to disconnect my BMS. I found that all the parallels are between 3,50 and 3,66v To a total of about 72,1 volts. I figured that this...

    Arduino automated Li-Po warmer for Winter-conditions

    Thank you mistercrash. The idea of using mulseveraltipel thermistors in different places is something I will look into. Got the arduino mini R5, and realized it is TINY, and that it did not have a usb-port. damit. Also need some relays and stuff, so the project is still in pending.

    Noobie planning an Electric bike with >30 mph

    Baby steps approach would be to buy a complete 500w kit and lug it on a bike, and upgrading piece by piece from there. I would not feed a 9C that much volts in stock configuration. I have been running a stock 9c at 74 volts, and that is just about the limit before it starts arching inside. When...
