Did the converter work well? I had tried something similar but it didnt work. I would love to find a converter that could work in the 3.0-4.2v range so we can just run batteries in parrallel which is much simpler and less prone to failure. Plus you could have any size pack you want based on space.
I also notice the power fade a lot whrn my battery gets low and I have to run boost because lvl 1 & 2 are too weak.
Hi, I haven't tried the converter with the TSDZ2, and I only played around with it on my Bafang right before I swapped to the TSDZ2. I bought the converter because the BBS01b cadence dropped off horribly as the battery discharged ... something the TSDZ2 does not do as much running the open source firmware.
Boost converters work well when there is a relatively small gap between the battery output and desired output.
I would think there could be other issues running a lot of cells in parallel without isolating during charge, not to mention boosting this voltage at high currents efficiently would be difficult and expensive.
What is wrong with series/parallel?
What was the issue you had with your converter?
