    Ping battery - 48v 20AH - 14 lights on BMS

    Yes, after 4 or 5 cycles. These two cells are the last to come up but I do see all 16 lights.

    Ping battery - 48v 20AH - 14 lights on BMS

    It takes several hours to initially charge the pack and start seeing some lights. After 3 or 4 cycles all the lights on the BMS finally lit up.

    eZee conversion with Ping batteries... Advice wanted.

    No problem. This probably happens more than you think. Scared the crap out of my daughter who was holding the needle nose pliers at the time. (Now she won't come into the garage when I'm soldering :)) Made the pliers a liitle shorter. But the BMS and battery are fine. BTW, on my battery, one of...

    eZee conversion with Ping batteries... Advice wanted.

    Actually, I also didn't ask until after I received the battery and 2A charger. I figured I would need to charge at work and after my long commute the 2A charger might not charge the battery enough to get home. Now I have 2 chargers. This is not so bad since I can leave the 5A charger at work...

    eZee conversion with Ping batteries... Advice wanted.

    This is similar to what I did. Justin and Zev at ebikes.ca suggested that the stock controller may not be able to handle the nominal 52V in the 48V Ping. Based on their recommendation I upgraded the controller to the 35 amp Clyte immediate start. I run the controller at 25 amps. Additionally, I...

    Ping battery - 48v 20AH - 14 lights on BMS

    I imagine this is true. Once balanced it should stay reasonably balanced. What I found disconcerting was 2 leds unlit. When I see a bunch of lights I really only feel comfortable if they are all the same. All lit and the same color, all unlit, or all flashing. Seeing 14 lit and 2 unlit did not...

    Ping battery - 48v 20AH - 14 lights on BMS

    After almost 24 hours on the charger 2 leds remained unlit. I removed the charger from the battery. All of the leds started flashing apparently randomly. I did not reconnect the charger. I let this go overnight. When I checked in the morning there were 2 leds flashing. These were the same 2 that...

    Ping battery - 48v 20AH - 14 lights on BMS

    Then why are the BMS lights flashing all over the place when the battery is removed from the charger. What is the BMS doing? Or not as the case may be :)

    Ping battery - 48v 20AH - 14 lights on BMS

    As a followup - the 2 leds remained unlit after almost 24 hours on the charger. I took the battery off the charger and let it balance overnight. When I checked in the morning there were two leds flashing. All of the others were out. The two that were flashing were the two that were not lit...

    Ping battery - 48v 20AH - 14 lights on BMS

    Hi all, New to the forums and just starting my new ebike. This is a version 2.5 battery. After ~9 hrs in the charger the light on the charger is green but only 14 of 16 lights on the BMS are lit. Normal? BMS bad? Bad cells? Help!. I sent and email to Ping and I'm sure he will respond but I...
