    It doesn't matter as the charger will adjust down as required. I usually use 5A as the setting, but as the Accucel can only output max 150W, 4.6A is about the practical limit and the charger will only pull this while the highest cell is below 4.18V (if aiming for 4.20, or 4.08V if aiming for...

    Yes. No, just keep balance charging until all cells read about the same. Yes, but you need to hook the low cell via it's balance leads to the main charge leads on the Accucel. You MUST get the polarity correct. You will need more equipment though, so just balance charge the whole pack...

    GT's Curious Custom build

    kmxtornado and NeilP (and all those that have viewed this), thanks guys :) This is my first build, so there is room for improvement. It's my experience (as a software writer) than the second build is over the top so I'll try and reign that in for my next one :lol: The problems that I had with...

    Starting a Build From Scratch - Looking for Input

    Excellent, as I'm planning a similar thing but you're at least 2 sketches in front of me (but I have all my parts either ordered from CRC or already in the shed :D ). Watching with interest & good luck 8)

    Wires on E-Bike motor

    Why don't you just ring or email e-bikekit and ask which controller you should buy from him to suit the motor you bought from him :?

    Hi Tony, I have 11.6Ah capacity (2x batts) and charge to 4.10V which reduces the capacity to about 10.8Ah. I have a round trip of 15km and use up to 5.8Ah depending on weather conditions. Approx 25% I use >5Ah, approx 10% <4Ah, so about 65% is between 4 and 5Ah. Based on this, you would get...

    10th Dec: Melbourne Australia ride and social chat

    Thanks guys, it's always nice to put a face to someone whom you've been communicating with :D :lol: x2 (I couldn't even SEE the Aprilia, let alone the sticker on it!) Ok, a better day than I thought :lol:

    ArduEbike - Arduino Ebike projects

    Thanks Mike, it makes sense if the code is complex, has many different contributors or wanting to maintain a history of code changes.

    Tony, I use the same charger as Sam (I just bought 2 is all) and I mainly "bulk" charge but still plug the balance lead in. I last balance charged on the 21st Sep and since then, the worse deltaV is 19mV and the best is 6mV Just wondering why you need the third battery? You only have a small...

    Hey guys, sounds like everyone had a blast. Could I be a pain and ask that someone puts names to faces for those that couldn't get there? Cheers, GT

    GT's Curious Custom build

    Hi guys, well ordered some 24AWG for the balance lead rewire. Also attached the chain guide: Just need some good weather now to make the wire cover and it's finished :D (well, besides some tuning anyways)

    Hyena's e-bike builds (now with HD video)

    :D Reminds me of the bundy bear "drop bear" ad, with the Swedish(?) blondes :lol: And while we are slightly OT, we had a huntsman the size of my open hand in the house once, the mongrel reared on it's hind legs ready to pounce - lucky for me the missus killed it with a rearguard action, aye :lol:

    GT's Curious Custom build

    Hi guys, a couple of updates Firstly, I made some elastic straps with zipzap on the ends (velcro) to hold the phase and hall cable to the fork. The elastic is about 20mm wide, and provides a cleaner look than using cable ties. There is a drip loop at the cable entrance to the axle. Also, I...

    Controller: E-ABS, Energy Feedback...???

    I have the exact label on my controller. With the e-brake activated, I get no regen so I'm thinking it means the controller is not regen enabled

    #$%@$#@ <--- (insert favorite swearword here), IT WORKS !!!!

    This looks good, well done mate. These current sensors are the ones I use, and available from the US (more applicable to Arlo1 though)

    Thanks for the wrap AJ 8) Have had a few laps around the block to test the settings etc, but no full ride yet. I'll update the work log rather than cluttering this thread :wink:
