    Zero Motorcycle Replacement Pack

    1) http://www.victpower.cn seems to be the cheap a123 suppler. 2) The charger can be reprogrammed, I have never done it. But you can find info on the deltaQ chargers here on this forum and also DIY. 3) I would think one would just ditch the ZERO BMS, I have a newer "MX" bms here and it is now...

    Zero Motorcycle Replacement Pack

    Odd I was at zero a week back and saw a stack cells, I asked if those guys have changed to the pouch a123 cells and was told yes.... The other problem with a change in cell type is the dash on the MX. It will pull out the solenoid on signal from the BMS. Havent looked if its active or just...

    DC microgrids - from the people who brought you the USBCell

    I think its a good idea. I feel a huge number of people will be installing micro-grids over the next few years. Not just the above type of devices but going full stand alone solar or micro nat gas turbines.

    Kindle 3 hacks, run your smartphone on 3G through kindle?

    All 3g cell access for the kindle is via Amazon servers. Use and abuse the data and you will find your kindles 3g shut off. A call to support tells you your warranty is void and you will need to buy another device.

    Where does Ping purchase Cells?

    I deal with ATL branded cells a good amount in laptop batt's I've open and rebuilt over 500+. To me its one of the better mfg's of cells around. I have cells going back to 2003 that still hold a charge good and test at 85%. Even cells that have been sitting at 0.8volts for 2+ years I've been...

    how do tesla get 16A (5c) per 18650 3.1ah cell??

    How does it get 5c....cooling and burst to only 5c. "internals are quite different" as in some/all cells will get on-board circuits to take the cell in and out of the pack and or cells behind a master cell. The decay starts from the time the cell is mfg'ed. And can go to 20% depending how it...

    Go independent..have your own power station or CHP unit

    60% efficiency at 1,500watts, 12,000BTU of Natural Gas. Start-up time 25 hours! 36-72 hours of power needed just for cool down if you shut it off. Grid independent not possible. This unit needs to spend allot of time getting to temp. It also needs to off load some of that heat. If you get free...

    restricting current from a battery pack

    The motor controller is the limiter. BUT some packs have a BMS that could limit what the pack can do. But those tend to "trip" and cut power not limit it.
