bikeelectric said:I have been using the 2 amp 48 volt charger that I purchased in the group buy and it has been working fine. I am curious - how high an amperage can you put into a Headway 48 volt 10 Ah pack ? Is the limiting factor heating of the battery pack ? Or what the BMS will handle ?
Spec sheet says you can charge up to 2C, but I would be surprised if you didn't get some heating at that rate. I think DocBass said he was charging at 1C and didn't see any heating. So 10A or less should be fine. Closer to 5A if you want to be conservative.
