Hello, had a question about using power tool batteries in series to test a 72v 150a controller... I'll give a brief overview of my situation.
Bought a non working electric street bike for cheap to see if I could get it going again. It runs off of a 72v li ion battery. The battery meters at 50.4 v and I'm sure tripped it's low voltage protection and won't let the bike turn on.
I'm willing to just buy a new battery for it but I'd like to make sure the controller and motor are working before I waste money on it.
My thought was to connect my four milwaukee 18v 6ah batteries in series with wire for the sole purpose of seeing if it turns on and spins the motor. It will not be used to try and ride it.
I just want to make sure I'm not going to burn out my batteries doing this as they are expensive and I use them for work.
Appreciate the info and hope to be around here more as I work on this bike.
