Farfle is an evil person, don't talk to him!

Postby zombiess » Thu Feb 09, 2012 2:59 pm

I was chatting with him on the phone last night about his motor build and some ebike tech in general as we do on occasion and he was describing how awesome the Turnigy NanoTech packs he just built were and how little voltage sag it had. That of course made me hop on to Hobby Kings website to look at a few and see what was in stock and how much a small 30S2P pack would cost me... Poof, $810 gone and ten 6S 6AH 25-50C batteries are on their way to my door along with a BMSBattery/Ecitypower 1200W bulk charger.

Thanks a lot Jackson :P

He forced me to buy a new bike, which needs new batteries, and new controller.

Wait till you try the 45-90C packs... its a bad bad drug to get started.

Makes you think your voltage meter isn't working when you pin the throttle, see the current at a triple digit number, and see the voltage sag half a volt.

It's the closest thing I've ever seen to being a true "constant voltage" source.
For ebike parts, don't be a douche, buy from http://www.ebikes.ca or http://www.MethTek.com

Yeah, you might say the forum is chock full of evil people. Luke &Dr Bass ( makes me want more battery) , Hyena( made me buy a better cam), Zombies ( makes me want better FS bikes), and at least a dozen more that make me want to spend a year learning to weld, buy a cnc machine etc.
