    Small LiFePO4 batteries

    Anyone interested in the Panasonic NCR18650PD? I'm thinking maybe to get them from another supplier, who can give better price. But I need to buy something like 1500 cells lol.

    Project: Create a cheap but safe battery box

    Not sure to understand.. Overheating from battery, motor or controller? Anyway my mac motor and 12 fet controller should handle it. With such a big pack battery would barely get get warm at 1000W which is about 1C

    Project: Create a cheap but safe battery box

    Ideally I'd like to use epoxy glass sheet and aluminium, but it's too expensive. I've seen 4mm aluminium sheet with epoxy glass sheet shipped to france over 50gbp. Wood is free lol

    Project: Create a cheap but safe battery box

    It's a 2*9s + 2s zippy compact. I had a dead cell in one of my zippy compact, so I extracted the cell and divided the pack. They are all 4AH cells with 3 in parallel. I end up with a 74V12AH pack, which should be enough to do 20km on my 1000W continuous Brompton bike :rolleyes:

    eMezzo conversion continuation

    Jerry, I've seen on your signature you are now using Konion pack? As you are looking for the most lightweight setup, why don't you try these new Panasonic NCR18650PD or LG ICR18650D1 cells? They are at 230wh/kg so 2 times lighter.

    Project: Create a cheap but safe battery box

    Battery pack is 130x150x150mm: I'm thinking to maybe use aluminium to have to less bulky and safer in event of fire? What about 3 mm aluminium sheet I would weld?

    Hello all, I'd like to create a battery box for my 74V12AH Zippy compact battery pack. I've already created a box for my A123 20AH battery. It's all wood made, quite strong but a bit bulky and not very safe: As you can see, I used 3 custom steel tie to compress the cells...

    Back to track, complete brompton maintenance

    My next battery pack will be some LG or Samsung 230wh/kg pack. I'm waiting for some test from endlesssphere before purchase. It will divide the weight of my pack by 2 with 1000wh for only 5kg. I probably do most of the time between 20-30km. But because of the motor power, I usually use at least...
