I was wondering if anybody had issues with the programming of their BBS02 unit. I managed to program it with an FTDI adapter on a couple of occasions but I think I might have damaged something on my last attempt as I unintentionally shorted a pin. Now when I short the P+ and switch pin, I get a...

I might not have explained this well enough - I want to charge it to 4.2V but the charger wont go beyond 4V. The lipos are brand new and I dont beat them hard at all, but I do want as much capacity from them as possible. I dont balance all the time either, only when needed but whether I use the...

I recently changed my HK Lipos from 6 4S packs to 2 6S packs. While I was using 4S I could charge all of the packs with my 80W RC imax B6 clone charger using a parallel board but now with 6S, my charger is struggling to balance the packs, even when charging one at a time. The cell voltages...

Thats a great idea, thanks! Another question / option was to maybe go for a hub motor solution. How does lets say a 1000W hubmotor with a 48V battery compare to a middrive 750W Bafang? Can I expect similar power for getting up hills?

I am using a 750W BBS02 on my MTB with a single shift 9 speed cassette. The battery is a 48V and with that combo I can climb anything that hits me. Now I want to build my wifes bike and was wondering if I can go with the slightly cheaper 500W motor and still expect some decent climbing...

Finished.

This is still a work in progress but here is my 3D printed housing for 6 Hobbyking Lipos. The 3D design in Fusion360: The current status (sprayed and ready for batteries and electronics) Follow this link for the album with inbetween steps: https://goo.gl/photos/bgUM4aiQ5jn7HECEA
