Hello guys. I took 3x4S instead of 2x6S because of their size. My frame is 55mm wide and 6S wouldnt fit in. No other reason to choose 4S :)..Some people mentioned that these Multistar packs are "shit" and that 10C is unreal. But those are RC geeks who need these super high C rates. Their price...

...I havent put a single statement here, I only ask about possibilities but nvm. Thanks for tips.

Thanks for a tip friendly1uk. I think the disadvantage you mentioned about cells not discharging lower than 3.5V might turn into advantage in my case. I want to be nice to these batteries. I will have 16Ah pack for mostly 2x 12km runs with first 3-5km being downhill. I dont mind pedalling a...

Thank you for wiring diagram, this I will need that for sure. But thats just one part...the other one is: how do I get wires out of the bike? I dont want cables (JST-XH) hanging out of my bike. I would like something like: I just need to simplify the connector so I can easily plug and charge...

Anyways - I have found a charger you know for sure and might work: http://www.hobbypartz.com/75p-1220-charger.html But I cant help myself and I still consider internal balancer/monitor much more comfortable way to go. If I used this charger I would still have to find a way to connect 3x4S...

You guys already convinced me lipo arent a bad way to go, so I dont mind investment and Im not thinking about going different way later. There a a lot of problems in getting batteries from China: 1) very long shipping times 2) taxes that will make the battery maybe even more expensive than if...

Not about being fancy, this box would be inside the frame anyways. I just think its very useful. ICell looks good, but its just a monitor without balancer and again - only 8S. Maybe I dont understand what you want to say, but Im pretty sure 8S battery monitor wont be able to monitor 12S setup...

Any news about model 3 Neptune release date and estimated price? I might be interested in testing it on my build :)

Ive just found Speedict Neptune Lite which sounds like what I need (except I wanted to use iPhone for this). There is a thread about it here: https://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=73354&hilit=speedict+neptune They mention model 3 which has GPS and speedmeter and will be able...

Thanks for response guys. I want things as safe and simple as possible and if you could tell me about better BMS/charger/any other protection, I wouldnt mind spending money for that. I thought this BMS can do all the stuff. Considering Battery Medics/Cell log - I dont want to reconnect anything...

These numbers are pretty convincing. Thank you very much, gonna order this right now :). I will post my ride when its finished - there are couple more problems I need to solve :roll:

Hello wesnewell and thanks for your reply. I am from Czech Republic - prices of batteries are ridiculous in here. I have no problem going with 12S build, I just thought the bike might be a little lazy. Everyone says go for 13s or possibly 14s. I wanted to use 3.92V because Ive read that lipo has...

Ah you again drunkskunk :)..you have to be really patient to reply to my dumb post again. I already mentioned once in my other post - I have 55mm wide frame which can store batteries. I had serious trouble looking for affordable 18650 solution and I am not into point welding at all. I would like...

Hello again guys, after hours of reading, googling and crawling internet Im here to get some tips again. Ive finally decided to give a chance to Li-Po. Ive found this (currently going for super-cheap 45€ in EU): http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=66309 My...

Any comments about this please? :)..I've heard that combination of serial/parallel makes the pack more resistant to single cell failures. Could you guys approve this? Hope you understand what i mean :)
