Hi folks,
Well I'm jumping in feet first on my first build. Picked up an Ebike.ca 9C 2806 kit and a ping 36v 20 amp.
I have an old 26" rigid steel frame with a U brake on rear as a donar.
My first questions are on the Battery. 1. When I put the battery on the charger the BMS got pretty warm. Not burning
to the touch but noticeably warm. Is this normal ? Second, The BMS was taped down to the battery. I assume, especially
with the heat produced. that the bms should be un-taped from the battery or do people leave them taped on for neatness?
Thirdly, When I tried to put a free wheel/cosset on, the casset tightened against the motor housing and would not spin
freely. I placed a 2MM spacer (washer) in there and it appears to work properly. Has any one else run in to this.
Well, thats my stupid questions for now, I'm sure I'll have dozens more as time goes by.
Thanks,
John
