@b264 either you have licensed out your naming scheme or the upcoming builds are going to be a large departure from what we have grown to expect

:smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Edit: from this point forward i will be referring to all your builds as ā€œsharpā€

That looks super clean. Nicely done. :+1:

What exactly are you doing though? You have two separate 6S packs that youā€™re going to wire up in series before connecting to VESC? Why? Do you plan to charge with balance chargers?

Edit: On a second look, thatā€™s actually 6S and 7S. What the heck?

My balance charger will only do 12s. So i need to split the pack for 13s.

I see. Charging will get annoying over time. Iā€™ve been there. Wouldnā€™t it be better to use a 13S BMS instead? With a BMS, you would need less wiring and fewer connections, which may save enough space to fit the BMS (a small, charge-only one; maybe the Neptune would be good).

Until there is a tiny, functional and affordable charge-only bms on the market, I will persist with balance charging.

And even if there was such a unicorn, I would probably still stick with balance charging.

Sure, itā€™s a lot more work, and I have to put in one more plug when I charge, but I trust it. I canā€™t say the same for any on board bms.

I have seen even the neptune fail.
