i have finished my trailer, which goes behind ice sprint tour trike
i will be traveling the world
right now i am troubleshooting my regen braking
we have:
- golden motor edge e-motors - 2 pieces, it does support regen braking
- cycle analyst 3.1 (ca3) will do all the dirty work, including throttle - therefore in edge (android) settings i set, ie, throttle to: close 0
- lifepo4 single battery shared with 2 pcs of e-motors
i need to know:
1. what voltage will activate regen braking on edge e-motor ? need this for ca3, currently (default) setting is 0.49 volts, i tried ca proportional braking, with throttle applied, no result
2. in edge settings (android / smart meter) - regen braking enable: open or close (1 or 0) - similar to throttle settings, my logic says: close 0, ca3 will do the work
3. max ebs phase current (android / smart meter) - 20 upto 80 - my guess is, this is percent of regen braking, 20 being min 'soft' braking, 80 being max 'hard' braking
i am informed that for regen braking to work, battery needs to be somewhat empty:
- my lifepo4 nominal voltage is 48 v
- i sent email to manufacturer / seller / distributor, about no. of cells -> 16, this makes it actually 51/52 volts battery
- in ca3, i entered 16 cells for no. of battery cells
- online info says battery needs to be 80 % or less full
- ca3 shows 53 volts, when battery is fully charged
here i get stunned - my calculation are:
53 v * 0.8 = 42,2 v - or lower for regen braking to work ? man, that is 2 volts above min allowed voltage, before system shuts down; min batt voltage setting in ca3 is 40 (volts), i could set it to 39, according to currently gathered info, this is minimum for lifepo4 batt
of course i sent e-mail with above questions to the distributor of my e-motors (www.miromax.lt), no reply, in general they do not offer customer support (that is my experience), and the actual seller of my edge e-motors is totally incapable of providing any useful info at all
i also sent e-mail with question to goldenmotor.com & goldenmotor.ca, no reply
please advise
thank you for your cooperation
best regards
