    1996 Kawasaki EV600

    AussieRider, Thanks for the input! I am experiencing as we go and I'm trying to be as diligent as I can be with the knowledge on here and a few other forums. What's one thing to keep an eye on. I have been looking into the battery pack build as I am ramping up on the build, but have to tear...

    Good setup on your wiring. Hard to follow a little bit, but if it works for you!

    1996 Kawasaki EV600

    Not too excited about the brushed motor, but it was all I had. I picked it up from a guy in New York, had it shipped here, and tore it out of the trike he had built. I am big into bikes and motorcycles so I wanted something more in my realm. He basically had all of the bits including the chevy...

    So I have been doing some work on my wiring diagram, mainly for my low voltage setup coming off of the DC-DC converter. I basically dumbed a cbr 929 wiring diagram to the basics for the lights, turn signals and other bits. What do you guys think of LV setup? Any concerning issues with it...

    1996 Kawasaki EV600

    Here is some mock ups of the bike. I have a cardboard box in place of my battery along with the fairings and controller on the back. Looks rather concealed for the most part! I have to angle the battery a bit to fit between a frame brace and under the tank that I have. The tanks doesn't go with...

    Evgine Company

    Has anyone came across this company? Watched a YouTube video from a subscriber and he walked through his finished product. Extremely impressed with his use of ALL OEM bits including the transmission, AC and other interior electronics. He claims to have the same power rating or even a bit more...

    1996 Kawasaki EV600

    I have some updates. Last weekend my grandfather and I went to his shop and welded and placed the motor in the frame! Huge milestone as anyone may know! I have some alignment left and right play on the shaft along with motor mounting alignment up and down for chain tensioning as well as the...

    I am building something similar but with a '96 zx6 frame. I am using a 106 V setup with LiFePo4 and I am using a Delta QuiQ 1000 Charger I had with the system I picked up. Only thing is you would need to load some algorithms to the charger to hand your specific voltage...

    1996 Kawasaki EV600

    So the build has started! Here are some of the components I have and will be working through: Motor: K91-4003 Motor At 96V Continuous rating: 7.3 kw (10.0 hp) Peak output: 21.3 kw (29.0 hp) Controller: Curtis PMC 1231C-86XX BMS: ZEVA EVMS3 with 3-12 Cell Modules Integrated...

    I have uploaded the changes that were recommended. I do believe my key switch and kill switch are wrong and would like some help for this configuration: I am wanting to turn on the EVMS which has the internal precharge resistor needed, but not turn on the main contactor. I would like the kill...

    Really Need Some Advice - Wiring Diagram

    Had some much needed time to revise the wiring diagram. This is the more crucial of the 2 diagrams as I am still working on the accessories (lights, blinkers, stop switches, etc.) What is everyone's thoughts on the matter? A few concerns I had and couldn't find the answer to: - The charge...

    What details do you have on the battery pack? How was it constructed, strip dimensions, materials, bms ETC.

    Battery Pack Design

    Another individual on here mentioned the 10A per P-Count would be to the absolute max for the used cells I have so I would keep a bit below that resulting in the 150 A continuous rating. Not looking for huge speeds or anything, more or less a commuter and the ability to actually achieve a...

    Really Need Some Advice - Wiring Diagram

    Yes the battery would make sense! ha What drawing do you have of this complicated set up for the key switch? Could we almost have 3 key switches turning on and off the individual processes? 1 Keyswitch for the pre charge only, 1 Key switch for the contactor to close for the main motor and...

    Battery Pack Design

    nuxland, I saw you have 4AWG wire for the ends of the battery packs. How did those do? I was intrigued on how you curled the ends of the copper around the wire and most likely crimped those or? I would like this pack to be able to be removed for other projects if need be or even if I wanted to...

    Battery Pack Design

    The charger that came with the package deal is a Delta QuiQ 1000. I am going to have another individual I met online to download the algorithm for this battery pack. He was actually insisting going with this configuration to meet the algorithm perfectly. I saw you have 4AWG wire for the ends...

    1966 Bridgestone 175 DT Conversion

    I am considering doing something similar for the battery pack where you have them folded. How was that experience and did it feel unstable when folding them? Also what pointers would you have for the first timer battery pack builders out there? What BMS did you go with as well as thickness and...

    Battery Pack Design

    I am currently reading your build as we speak. Very impressive build and intuitive to the nonwelding portion. As far as my fabrication abilities and the sources around myself, I won't be able to go to that extent hence the reason for welding the nickel strips. This is my purchase of the ZEVA...

    Battery Pack Design

    So the series connections just have to be able to handle the 150A I am wanting to achieve is that correct? Your 600A burst is a lot of amps and I wouldn't nearly touch that with the pack I am building unfortunately! Could I double up the Nickel strips I have purchased to help with the amps or...

    nuxland, Great Build and I didn't come across it in my search. I will definitely go through it thoroughly and see what you have done as a guidance! As far as my construction with the 4 packs of 8S15P resulting in 32S15P overall, what connections between the bus bar and the nickel strips would...

    amberwolf, Yes those are the conditions and logic behind what I am wanting to do. I do not want the precharge resistor to be charged the whole time and would like the ability to keep that off. The wording of the wiring is a bit confusing and would greatly like the rough drawing whenever you...

    Battery Pack Design

    john61ct, thanks for the feedback and makes sense with what you're saying. Break them out into smaller pack and connect them in a sense. I like that idea and then I can "fold" them accordingly to the pack dimensions I am needing. To note, I am using the individual cell holders for some...

    Battery Pack Design

    Since I have 32S15P, at 10A per cell based on the P-count, I would be pushing 150 Amps, is this correct? Or would it be pulling the 500 amps as my controller limits it? Also, I was reading the sandwich thread and you mentioned simply having copper bus bars on the ends to connect them rather than...

    I appreciate the feedback, spinningmagnets. How would you conduct a pack this size for the motorcycle use? You mentioned 2 16S packs, how would that look between the 2? Have a connector? I believe my controller limits a 500 amp current limit. This is from the Kelly controller 1231 I have.
