Wiring Harness Diagram Help!

[Gamma2]

So, I'm fairly new to working with anything above 3s and creating my own wiring harnesses. I was hoping someone would be able to sketch a quick drawing of how I need to wire my board, if its even possible at all. My goals are as follows:

1. 2x 6s 8ah LiPos in series to make a 12s 8ah.
2. Antispark killswitch made with an XT90s plug on the positive line.
3. Add a battery life display.
4. Charge the batteries as if they are 6s 16ah wired in parallel. (Is this possible?? My charger only goes up to 6s, so I could charge them separately if not.)
5. Power VESC and GT2B Rx.

Any pointers at all would be a great help! Thanks guys!

Hi

The way I would do (and have done) it would be to make a XT90 series adapter.
Or buy one like this:

You can then disconnect at the adapter and charge your two batteries with the use of a parallel charging board.

The battery indicator is, I presume, just a voltage monitor so that can be placed over the positive / negative lines after the adapter.

The VESC has a 3 pin connector that leads to the Rx. This supplies the power as well. (When you order your VESC make sure that you get this part - not difficult to get elsewhere but may as well get them together)


Hope this helps.
