    Brushed Motor, sans controller

    In a setup with a Brushed motor, no controller, what limits the amps? Is it just the motor takes what it's spec'd for (for ex 24 volt system 250 watt motor, its using a little bit north of 10 amps) or does it take as much as the battery will give it? what about when its over volted? Gracias

    Couple Questions Google can't answer

    Yea I'm looking at 80 Amps continuous, thanks for the various responses, I Was kind of hoping there was something special about that wire, as it is I'm having trouble finding even 8 AWG Silicon wire

    Couple Questions Google can't answer

    With wire gauge, everything I find talks in terms of feet, if I'm only dealing with inches do Have more leeway? I'm dealing with a 80-100 volt battery, upwards of 80 amps. Do I really need 4 gauge wire? Also is there any downside to going up in voltage, if you keep the same amps? Has anyone...

    Self Discharge LiCo low voltage question

    ok, you connect any battery to a BMS, it's going to self discharge some, even after the BMS shuts down, it's not going to stay the same exact voltage forever. I didn't ask for a critique of a specific battery, just asking if anyone has any practical experience or theoretical knowledge dealing...

    Self Discharge LiCo low voltage question

    Anyone know How much damage is happening with a LiPoly LiCO cell once it starts dipping below 2.6 via self discharge? anyone have a time frame on how long these cells would be good or a "Point of no return"

    Series /Parallel Switch, High Voltage

    So since there pretty much aren't any 16S LiPoly charges out there, and I'm stuck @ 12S with the Hyperion I was going to put a Series/ Parrelell switch set up on a battery pack to turn a 16S Battery into 8S For charging. Simplest thing I Could come up with is using 2 3 Position switches, as long...

    Anyone have any experience with these?

    Wire Question

    I've worked with a kind of wire that was really easy to deal with, flexible and "soft" for lack of a better word, and then I bought some at frys that sucked balls (damn near needed pliers to bend it) problem is I don't know shit about how wire is officially labeled or referred to except gauge...
