    Enertrac MHM motor repair

    Hi all I recently pulled apart my EnerTrac motor to replace the bearings, which had developed a grumbling. I had a symptom of vibrations that could be felt in the pegs after about 30mph to about 40 then from 55mph onwards. The vibration felt like a resonance. UelJ_UatCQk After pulling apart...

    Deep Discharge of LI Ion LMO Cells

    All the cells are clamped together so hard to see which is puffed without dismantling the pack. In the end I scrapped all the cells (££) not worth the risk.

    Deep Discharge of LI Ion LMO Cells

    Unfortunately not, they are out of a Nissan leaf and the datasheet is not publicly available

    Deep Discharge of LI Ion LMO Cells

    Thanks all Some cells are at 2+ volts, and I suspect those would be OK. Most of the other are at 0.4-0.6volts (due to the way the balancer draws its power) its a bit of a pain! I may drag it out of the garage, to somehwere more safe and see how it goes. Some interesting reading here...

    High Voltage high current DC power supply

    So far, its still going well! The fan is really really noisy, and even when its 5degrees C, seems to ramp up quickly. I max it out at 25 amps @ 100v (240V input) without any issues.

    Deep Discharge of LI Ion LMO Cells

    HI all I have a Vectrix VX1 with second gen Nissan leaf cells. Unfortunately, the BMS froze and dragged them down to a very low voltage (pack measures at 40 volts now instead of 150 volts). I can revive these batteries by slowly charging cells groups at 500ma and monitoring the voltage...

    Kelly Controller setting at low battery

    Yes, you need to set your min voltage setting higher on the controller.

    Motor noise assitance

    An update. I did not swap any of the hall wires when I did the phase wire testing. Fany has indicated I should do this as well. When my mental health allows, I will try this.

    Quality of Kelly Controllers

    I agree completely. If I set 100% it should allow the maximum rated current of the controller...... not blow up at 65%

    Motor noise assitance

    Hi all I have a Kelly KHB on the shelf. I had some time today, so I swapped out the Kls96601-8080i for the KHB. However, I couldn't get it to run correctly. I tried every combination of phase wires but this was the best I could get: https://youtu.be/MKL0c_9dNIM The motor was very grimbly...

    Sevcon Gen 4 Size 6 questions

    Of course. I run a B2B company and we do not work with businesses below a certain size. I do not expect them to make a product then walk me through how to use, implement and configure it, step by step. Its more about having access to official documentations and a large comprehensive...

    Sevcon Gen 4 Size 6 questions

    Thank you very much. That is a bit of a shame. You would think they make documentation available to anybody who buys a "dev unit " to potentially use en mass in a finished product. As I have said in the other thread, I think the only way I would entertain this controller, is if I had the...

    50KW controller with field weakening

    Fair enough. Its a good price for both the items, but I am in the middle of moving so cannot take a risk on something like that at the moment. Especially considering I have a Kelly KBL sitting around that will likely give me the power levels I want, but without field weakening (and cool throttle...

    50KW controller with field weakening

    That is not a bad idea. However, its a steep learning curve for me. I have quite a bit of experience with electronics, but all quite basic. I have done some cursory research and it looks like fitting the whole power stage and brain board etc onto the bike will be quite difficult. I will give it...

    Sevcon Gen 4 Size 6 questions

    Hi all Looking for this for my fazer project (116v, 400+amps) I have done some reading around, and think that if I can get assistance from somebody for configuration (on the bits I get stuck on), I can make it work. I am sure the answer is yes, but can this controller: Run My Enertrac...

    50KW controller with field weakening

    The problem is, that during regen, I allow cell voltages to go to 4.19 per cell. At the moment I charge to 4.15v per cell with 28S (116.2). I may be persuaded to use a sevcon as it seems like it would work. Could you give me assistance on programming?

    Update on my Fazer 600 conversion

    Yes exactly that. You may find that the controller you are using has a maximum voltage that is much higher than the 72v nominal. You could always just not wire into one of the 4s modules but you would be carrying around a battery that you are not using.

    50KW controller with field weakening

    Thanks Tony, I will ping them a message and see if they can do something out of the ordinary. The KHB controller will require tank modifications, which I am reluctant to do if it doesn't give me more top speed :)

    YZF600R Thundercat EV

    Any thoughts on the controller you are going to use for the 28S project? I am currently stuck looking for a controller that can support the power, ideally with field weakening.

    Yamaha FZR-8000 Genesis

    Lots of good progress. I wouldn't run the controller at 100% on either phase current or battery current limit. It WILL let out the magic smoke at that setting.

    50KW controller with field weakening

    Hi all!!! I have now been on a few test runs of the Fazer build (https://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=1553731#p1553731) It is power limited by the controller (20kw), the motor can easily do 30 or even 40kw peak for brief periods. I am looking for a controller that can handle this...

    Update on my Fazer 600 conversion

    I would have much rather gone with a sevcon, or something that actually puts out its rated output without blowing up. I have a battery voltage of 116.1 when fully charged, which I think is right on the edge of the sevcons voltage range. I have a kelly KHB12101 which can do 500 amps continuous...

    Update on my Fazer 600 conversion

    I was doing some server maintenance, was down for 35 mins. Should be working now.
