I use a 36 volt Ping battery to power my electric bicycle. The charging steps look like this:
Photovoltaics to charge controller to battery to inverter to battery charger to battery management system to battery. A lot of steps, a lot of inefficiency.
I'd like to experiment with simplifying to: Photovoltaics to BMS to Battery.
Mr Ping does not want more than 42volts going into his little ping. I am using a 5 amp battery charger right now. I am thinking about assembling a 42 volt 3.5 amp panel out of eighty four 3x6 cells. A diode will prevent discharge.
Anyone tried this, or know if it will work or not?
cheers,
Shawn
