Ok so a totall newbie to brushless motors. The hub has to go thru a motor controller , the three phases connecting to the same colour phase connections (in most cases). Battery power is supplied to the motor controller and not direct to the motor. The hub is unsensored so means it's operation...

Spend more time researching and understanding battery configurations, have a look on endless sphere battery tech sub forum for some good info.

You need knowledge to spot weld parallel and series grouping of cells, tbh if you are asking how to configure such a battery build one is best not to start at all. As it is you have displayed lack of knowldege or understanding. 13s is 48v yet you have said 52v !!! 52v is 14 in series.

The hub is an older style brushless hub, it is an unsensored hub. The three phase are std and if the motor runs roughly or backwards one simply swaps the wire sequence if colour to colour sequencing doesn't work.

Woosh bikes in Southend , superb CS before and after.

I had the same PM as I expect will dozens of others.

In southern europe it pays to have solar where the sun shines more. The difference living at 38 degress longitude compared with 51 degrees for the UK.

From last nights program 25% of drivers deliberately close pass cyclists, an admission of dangerous driving as it is premeditated.

Battery storage needs to be huge for any winter use. It is handy from spring to Autumn as the sun would replenish them during the day with good sun for off grid, following the night time usage. LFP 24v x 280ah is 7.168 kwh in my area with a near 2kw array for my spilt E/W azimuth the battery...

One needs to work out the kwh one use per month or as a daily amount for the year. Over the last couple of years my usage has been approx. 6.8kwh per day for electric use, so an average per month requires approx. 204kwh. I have been more wary of prices and cost of energy and last month...

As an example where I live South facing isn't possible but if it were I would get the following results. The first figures being 35 degree angle at 180 facing and the second figures vertical/90 degree angle both using 1.2kw array as an example: Jan 40/44 kwh. Feb 50/47 kwh. Mar 80/61 kwh...

Was it me to linked to this one. PVWatts Calculator (nrel.gov) Also this is another one. Solar Irradiance - calculate the solar energy available on your site (solarelectricityhandbook.com) With the pvwatts calc open it up input your post code top left, use the map to pin point your exact...

Imv either a cell bank or two are shot or cells in a bank or two are shot, which ever it is they are bringing the pack down.

Ones suspects as with most media, when it comes to car vs cycles it will car biased.

What a drive rshould do and will or does do is far form what actually happens. As the latest panarama report goes 1/3 of drivers simply don't give a s**t about cyclists. As I have told the wife, if I'm severely injured or killed by a vehicle she makes sure she sues the ass off the offender and...

Fire is unlikely dismantling unless one was really silly and used a metal tool and dropped it across the battery shorting cells out . For a fire it needs something more dramatic to occur usually a charge or discharge fault or major impact. I have deliberately punctured old cells and not seen...

I shall watch as I also saw the BBC news item, of interest was one of the last clips where a car didn't stop at roundabout. Said car took out the cyclist but from the clip although the car should have given way to cyclist from the right, the cyclist did him self few favours by what I saw...

Both will be 2 wire generic type, as log as one wires the polarity correct then simply change the mount rail over as already mentioned.

The main thing is if not using said battery for a while, try and leave it at approx 60 - 80% charged.

A few simple numbers. My current price for elec is 0.35314p per kwh. A 1600watt pv array supposedly will producefor my flat roof 1321kwh of energy. Using those figures would equate to £466.47 in energy cost for electricity and say for a 3k outlay one would break even in 6.5 years. Come April...
