Sign me up.

 

[neptronix]

Not interested since i'm not a lifepo4 fan, however i think the idea is quite brilliant and you should go for it..

 

[agniusm]

Thanks. I dont have the price at the moment mainly because i am negotiating block price with companies. It would be not a big deal if i ordered 2000pcs but on smaller quantities the price goes up (up to 4$per block) which makes the kit totaly unatractive. After i will negotiate the price, will post it here and then its a matter of couple weeks till shipping. cheers

P.S. Moumting plates will have copper pads for blocks on the cell side (not visible on the drawing) and builder will have a possibility to solder blocks on to the board further easing buid proces.

 

[Spacey]

Interested for sure.

 

[ambroseliao]

Add me to the interested list. This would make building a pack drop dead simple.

 

[agniusm]

Forgot to mention (did not included in the sketch), there will be threaded brass rod going through top plate and sticking out 5mm. This will make things easy. The Builder will acquire 2 bullet connectors desired gauge but not less than 4mm (75A) and solder those strait on to the rod. After the pack is finished and top plate is on, they will be screwed in and you have easy unplugging neat terminals. Those who need beefier terminals will be able to use these:

with 4mm nut.

Looks good, interested. Like to hang under my top bar ? How's your running ? And your setup ?

Mine is running fine so far. Its couple of days yet so early to say. Mounting options is up to you


If possible state configuration you need the kit for , i will run perhaps 4 kits at first and ship them to lucky once, and then everybody will get feedback from them, after there is satisfaction, i can start making larger quantities.

 

[spkpn]

Id be interested in a 2p set up..

 

[texaspyro]

A 4S config would also be highly useful. 4S of LiFePO is a perfect match for replacing 12V lead acid batteries.

 

[Timmey]

Nice kit, we've been doing something similar to build our 102s1p A123 pack for a Formula Student Electric race car.

 

[docnjoj]

I am interested in 12S configuration please. Thanks
otherDoc

 

[adam78]

I would be interested in 8s and 10s config.
thx
Adam

 

[agniusm]

OK, so i can tell that standart sizes are not standart at all I will include 4S in the availability list, so if you need 10S you could get 6s and 4s, 8s - 4s+4s, 16s - 12s + 4s etc if that works. Remember that all that custom stuff ads to the price and i cant make infividual stuff in one peace quantities unless someone wants to pay top price. Friday going to firm to negotiate PCB prices. cheers

 

[Frank]

This sounds like a good idea - have you actually built a prototype yet?

 

[agniusm]

Partly yes, i used similar on my e scooter, link in signature. This thou will be more advanced, easy to build with all parts included. Tidy BMS connectors etc.

 

[agniusm]

Layout for different configurations. Sizes are:
4S- 34x160

6S-48x160

12S-90x160

18S-132x160

24S-174x160

30S-216x160

Same size top cover with cutout on the right side for connector.

You wont be a guinea pig!! All will be checked before shipping. Me risking big time on this Changing thickness of blocks to reduce weight and cost: 45x6x3

Those interested, please PM me configuration and how many units you will need, i will try to reduce my risk in buying material i need. I will list unit and shipping prices when arranged with 3rd parties.

Thank yo

How about one for 28 s . Thats 100v charged for the a123 packs. Will 100v caps and fets take the 30s version, I wonder.
I personally would like one for 40s also.

You will get 28s by using 24s+4s, 40s using 30s+6s+4s.
You cant possibly make a product for everyone, sorry about that.

And please, keep it on topic. Cheers
