Fuse the charge port

Put shrink wrap around any bullet connections so they can’t vibrate loose

Use small cable ties to keep XT60 from vibrating apart

Derp. You right. The modules are sold as 2s3p, I’m using them as 3s2p

i’m going to put sandwiches in there :wink:

the goal for this set up is light and short range, more of a low to the ground push board feel, we’ll see.

Come weigh in! Lets diversify our battery-buying portfolio as a community, and find out who has the goods! As cells become more scarce and expensive these days, we need all the options we can get! (Without sacrificing quality of both products and vendors)

what variable charger options are there?
as in a charger that can go between lets say 4 - 20 amps for different packs?

i am charging my pack for the first time and i see lots of people have an app which shows each p group and how much is going in
i am using the llt app recommended by apex customs. is there a different one i can use?

Xiaoxiang BMS on IOS

ah
the android one is rubbish

12s8p p42a
what should i set the voltage cutoffs and overcharge to on the llt app?
thank you

The default should be fine

3v and 2.7v seems quite high
though you could go a little lower then that still

also should it attempt to charge till 4.25? i thought it should be 4.2

Here are some of my setting for my 12s8p P42A

Some of the settings will not even do anything because it is bypassed.

any recommendations

balancing battery now
does it make sense that my charger keeps going on and off? also that the voltages on the app go weird while it happens?

I know of a good place for 10a chargers…
Apex customs… Just so happens that i hold that part of the stock here. :grin:

they sell good stuff but their chargers are expensive maybe though

Yep, thats the LLT SmartBMS opening/closing the charging circuit as it balances. Kind of dumb and annoying, but there you go.
