    1600 x 18650 cells - Recycled

    Hey, I am in Calgary as well. I would be interested in a few packs to test. Do you have any pictures of the packs and/or cells?

    N.E.S.E. the no solder module

    No worries :D . Yes, at 0.3mm it saves time. It took about 2.5hrs for the base and 1.5hrs for the lid. I used my own settings mainly because they're optimized for PETG (almost no stringing). My printer is very "primitive" compared to the newer ones but hey, it works well enough for my needs...

    N.E.S.E. the no solder module

    Hi All, I recently bought some hardware for the NESE modules and I am very happy! I received the hardware in just 2 weeks (a totally acceptable timeframe for me) and I live in Canada. The hardware was well packaged. I then printed the modules in PETG on my older 8-bit 3D printer and even...

    2011 Zero XU - Battery replacement options?

    Hi Boulter, Nice work! How much would you charge for such a battery? To be honest I am not a huge fan of 18650 for an electric motorcycle as there are only a few cell types that are up to the task & can last a decent number of cycles without major losses in capacity. As for li-po..no thanks...

    2011 Zero XU - Battery replacement options?

    Hi All, I own a 2011 Zero XU. The bike is basically new with 80km on the odometer, 50 of which I put on the bike. I bought it from a dealership that used it as a demo and then let the battery die and never touched the bike after that. The original battery of my Zero has the molicels 26700A that...

    Kawasaki KE100 conversion

    Very interesting build and nice bike! I would buy it from you if I was in the US. I want to build a similar bike with a Motenergy motor ( this is what I have http://www.electricmotorsport.com/pmac-ss-me0201014201-pmac-motor-24-72v-6-hp-cont-19-hp-pk.html ) running at 72v . There is decent KE100...

    Spot Welding Battery Packs

    Shortened the electrodes and put everything in a box. Now using a 3s2p sony konion pack with a 1ohm power resistor to charge the cap (1 second) and it works beautifully. I am practicing and getting better with the welds. I ordered a voltmeter to see the cap voltage and will put on a relay to...

    Spot Welding Battery Packs

    Yes but I was able to find only partial info. Reading 1 page with the correct info is much easier than reading 40 pages and try to guess what is the best way to build a spot welder .

    Spot Welding Battery Packs

    Thanks Silentflight. Crossbreak uses car batteries and NO cap. I use a power supply AND a cap. The approach is different. The system works for both but you will have to change some stuff (arduino/attiny code for sure). I used a rockford fosgate capacitor 1F, bought on ebay for about 60-70$...

    Spot Welding Battery Packs

    Welds are getting better. The burned area is from the previous welder with the SCR and 10AWG cables...I was making big holes and no welds...Now it's much better. In this photo there is an unsuccessful weld as the cap was not fully charged. the other welds are strong :D

    Spot Welding Battery Packs

    Here is the schematic of my board. I simplified the mosfet part. They are all in parallel and I use 1 gate resistor (1k) and 1 pull down resistor (10k) on the gate in total.

    Spot Welding Battery Packs

    Hi Everyone, I finally built a spot welder following crossbreak's own build. There is still lots to be improved but it works. Instead of arduino I used an Attiny85. The mosfet driver is the mcp1407 and the mosfets are IRFB7340, I only used 5 of them because that's what I had availabe...

    Another BMSBattery charger problem...

    It is my understanding that Kingpans have a different schematics and use better quality components.

    BMS Battery Alloy Shell Charger Problems

    If you still have the warranty, ask for a refund and buy a new charger from another brand. I tried to fix mine and it looks like all the main power side is blown. Too expensive to repair and even if you do, it can blow up again.

    KU123 100V Mod: success!

    I am currently using my latest modded one at 72v nominal (84v fully charged). Peak amps about 40. IRFB4110, beefed up traces, changed caps with 100v ones. Been using this one pretty heavily for a few weeks now and no problems so far. I did not increase the amps..I don't need more for now.

    Considering open source Cycle Analyst/APM

    I guys, I am still working on a circuit to integrate a sort of low voltage alarm into the open source APM/CA This is what I accomplished today using a cell-log: UQhINgC-qhQ

    Considering open source Cycle Analyst/APM

    @ Pendragon I use the same ACS758 in my project. I bought the 100A unidirectional but looking back I would go for 50A bidirectional to monitor charging and eventually (when I will implement it) regen. I don't know what kinda current you get on your controller but I ger 44-45A peak on my most...

    BMS Battery Alloy Shell Charger Problems

    Hi Dnmun, Did you find out why those chargers fail? Chinese fake components or wrong components for the task? I am trying to fix my chargers with stuff I can recycle from power supplies, but I think I have to order the diodes from a supplier as the ones I have will not handle the voltage. I...
