Hi.
So what is the current design thoughts on battery box? Primary objective is plan for LiPO fire. 2nd priority is weight consideration.
Wood? Plastic? Aluminum? Steel? Immerse in mineral oil like steveo suggests?
Let's assume LiPO fire is a certainty. How would you design it to minimize damage to surrounding material? Would install a fire suppression system be helpful?
EV traction pack is roughly 310 V, 12 AH. Using Turnigy nano-tech 6S, 5.8 mAH battery packs. Charged to 4.1 Vdc per cell. 4 packs paralleled first, and then connected in series.
Charge using Elcon bulk charger. Balance using RC battery charger every 10 cycles. Fire suppression is ABC fire extinguisher plumbed to battery. Manual activation.
