    Paralleling different capacity cells

    It sounds like the original question concerned a series pack with a lower capacity cell in parallel with a more healthy cell? In the case batteries are in series and parallel. A cell with lower capacity will damage its sister cell. For example 6s 2p with one lower capacity cell represented by...

    Meanwell NES Schematic..almost complete

    Lost track of thread...If you have a charging circuit on your BMS it might be possible to plug directly into a power supply without any current limiting modifications. The value for R55 is determined by the individual pack, every pack is a little different and should be calibrated to the...

    Re-wind of a turnigy 80/100 (Now-tutorial w/Video)

    tdejong: What size of outboard have you converted? What specs are you trying to match? I have this motor; currently at stock wind with upgraded hardened steel shaft. I am doing a conversion as well and I am curious at what to expect and if I will need to alter my winding...Why did you decide to...

    ...A new one! [low-cost dirt bike] -- second test video

    I refer to this statement along with the one that follows...it sounds negative, but I am assuming it is supposed to be a compliment. I, on the other hand, find this to be an inspiring work. Look forward to updates!!!

    ...A new one! [low-cost dirt bike] -- second test video

    lol! I think in Germany that is a compliment ??? :lol: Add one more mechanical to the list... I like the idea of mid-mounted motors from about 3 years back now, when my buddy Flo built his very first e-bike. Very ingenious use of the transmission gears inside the frame. The frame looks pretty...

    Re-wind of a turnigy 80/100 (Now-tutorial w/Video)

    I have never used that idea with the JB weld but have seen it many a time. I use LRK in my 100mph+ park flyer, so a much smaller scale and had to do lots of rewind because of wire vibration. I found a new link on high quality enamel wire, slot insulation and the "Dolph's" spray though at a...

    Thud, Have you tried a distributed LRK yet? What is that black stuff on your wires in the motor rewind pics?

    Made in Canada, eh?

    That's like asking "Where do I drive my Ferrari?" We can build a " little sally " bike if you are worried about the excess performance. Each bike is tailored to the end users requirements. This depends on local by-laws mostly and what the local police will tolerate. There is a 32kph speed limit...

    Made in Canada, eh?

    It will most likely be more expensive...its an aluminum frame and requires skilled fabrication. That assembly is the main cost, we'd be happy to provide a box of components for you to weld and assemble yourself. It benefits you more to buy the full bike though, unless you have high quality parts...

    This is an interesting crank, I believe the extended shaft version will work with this frame. The crank set is 84mm.

    Made in Canada, eh?

    Details will be posted following the end of summer. Impulse product has only been released to dealers, private security and law enforcement. We are scheduled for a Spring release to the general public and thus have been closed lip about further details. Currently dealers are ordering demo's for...

    Meanwell NES Schematic..almost complete

    hahaha was that too obvious? I wasn't sure about the etiquette on ball busting... lol I've been reading the forums for a few years, that's how I met the guys in Pickering. They finally convinced me to post, just to explain the charger mod, since it seemed that the solution was not posted yet. I...

    Meanwell NES Schematic..almost complete

    There is a thread about this guy who blows up meanwell's like they are candy...search for "sp-320-48 meanwell mod" of something like that. No sense re-posting what has already been done. I believe the mod involves swapping "R33" with a 1k Ohm pot...haven't modded one since last year. This mod...

    Meanwell NES Schematic..almost complete

    I am not sure how the other mod is intended to work...I wasn't willing to try it based on the discussion and posted results. Also I didnt quite understand it. Modding the shunt is always a last resort IMO because it is too imprecise/unreliable. This mod differs in that its a simple single...

    Meanwell NES Schematic..almost complete

    Shawn asked me to explain. The mod was based off of the "SP" mod of the same version. Based on the schematic, thanks "NeilP", I was able to find the similar voltage divider. Off of Q1 and Q2 R1k and R36K make the voltage divider to the Isense pin of the PWM module. Unfortunately they have...
