Hi, I am looking into purchasing the 2500 watt LightningRod mid drive kit found here: http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=57720
I will be pairing it with a Lyen 12 FET 4110 MOSFET MK2 found here: http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=17683
I plan on running a 16s3p LiPo battery setup using batteries from Hobbyking. My initial idea was to use six Zippy 8s 5800mah batteries and carry them in a small camel pack style backpack. 1000 watts of power and 14 pounds is quite reasonable I think.
This is my first foray into building batteries and there seems to be a hell of a lot of information. I know that it must be done right and handled and stored with care so I dont burn my apartment down! I plan to store and charge my batteries in a metal container on my balcony to mitigate fires. That being said, I would like recommendations on which Hobbyking batteries you would use, what wiring harnesses I should use and where I should get them. I assume there must be some prebuilt harnesses out there for hobby batteries. I also need to know what battery charger I should buy to charge up my 16s3p battery.
Any other relevant information would be fantastic.
Thanks again!
