My latest build is all buttoned up with wiring neatly tucked away, and I go look at the manual for the Analogger, which I planned to plug to my CA3 for power. My pack voltage is 31s, 128V fresh off the charger, but the Analogger needs 12-100V. My CA has only pack voltage, 5V, and 10V for a torque sensor....arggghh.
Since I can still get to my CA3 and Analogger, and they already come with a nice way to connect them, is there something simple (like just add a resistor or something) to step my pack voltage down to a voltage the Analogger's internal DC/DC convertor can handle?
Even better would be that someone in the know can assure me that just like common switchers can handle a much wider range of voltage than on the label, that my Analogger will be just fine at my pack voltage.
...not good foresight that the Analogger can't always plug to a CA3. What good is a pack voltage output on my CA3? A 12V out seems much more useful. I prefer as few pack voltage wires as possible on my handlebar...typically none on my builds.
I like nice and simple and would like to log a run today. Don't you guys want to see what 28-30kw looks like?
