I can't send the video but didn't realize what the display was telling me. When the battery is on and the display pressed it show 8h and a flashing carlike engine management symbol. Someone on Facebook and another site online said this is an error code for hall sensor. Any thoughts?

It's at 54.6 v

Hello again Nealh! It's fully charged. I can't make this out. The instructions say the brake sensors don't need to be fitted for everything to work, but I ve just watched a YouTube video of someone with a dillenger kit not having magnets on the levers. Then his mate put it near lever and...

Hi, can't get my newly installed kit to work. Throttle doesn't work. Haven't ridden it because l ve contacted the supplier. Only clue is when l turn display on, it lights everything up then goes to a battery symbol with no bars in it flashing, and a carlike engine management light flashing in...

Hello again, so put my project on hold and bought a dillenger 1000w hub kit so l can ride something. I ve been thorough and l can make it do anything. I haven't ridden it at all, because l assumed l turn battery on, press bar switch and press thumb throttle and bingo. Nothing. I ve checked...

Hi nealh, thanks for reading. So like a car, the battery pack would draw most current on climbs, starting off etc? What amps would it draw flat out? Impossible to say?

Hi, had a few questions answered so thanks for that. I understand the fundamentals of battery building but here's another one that l want to grasp. An 18650 cell for example has a spec of 3000mah and a continuous discharge of say 10. So if it's made into a pack of 5p it becomes a 15ah battery...

Yes that was my understanding of it. BMS built-in or charger that balances

Thanks for the confusion. Balance leads to what? I ve been told a BMS will protect the battery and get a cheap charger

Thanks for the advice. You've lost me on the last section. I know the fundamentals of it all. I ve just discharged a simple 5s on my clone b6 and that seems ok. Doesn't want to know when charging though. So my cheap batteries are crap or something wrong with charger. Think that's made me go for...

Ok l see. I assume lipos have a BMS so didn't know why they had balance leads hanging out. Why don't they when you're told to be careful with them.

Forgive my lack of knowledge. So a lipo would have a BMS, with the leads on show. So surely they would be plugged into a charger?

Yes l ve just read up on this charger. I do have uses for it so it wouldn't be a waste of money. What l don't understand is how a basic charger works with a battery with BMS which has been recommended. Can you still plug the balance leads in? Getting confused here

I think l ve found the charger Hi, think l ve looked up this charger correctly. So what type of connector does a battery need to fit this? All good research!
