As compared to the AGM 18ah I started with this DIY Headway pack is awesome.
Only ride about 1 1/2 miles round trip a day.
BMS may cut the output about every 10-12 days.
AGM batteries died at half the trip after 16 months. Charged after every trip.
Pedal some, just for looks. LOL
I have been waiting until BMS shuts down output to then charge.
Is this OK for longevity, or should I charge at a given voltage.? Or every (daily) trip.
Cut out is around 51volt, off full charge is just above 55volt. (If I remember right.)
Thanks.
ps. longevity of cells, therefore pack is only concern. 32 mph on a bicycle is plenty fast for me on these local streets.
