holy cow man! I built a battery super similar to this same different cells but still Li-ion, and I used the Grid cell holders to space them out but used the exact same copper bar method so that I could have screw terminals on a Li-ion pack. It is also for my electric motorcycle I built for my senior project in college. Great minds think alike!

Hahaha, I never thought I'd use these words to describe a battery, but this is a thing of beauty! Very nice explanation on all the thought and engineering tradeoffs that went into building it.

You did a much better job at pulling the strips off the cells than I did my first few go arounds tearing cells down. Ill have to try the chisel method!

Cool project, if you plan on using more powerful motor battery consider the BMW I3 and look for a wrecked one as carbon fiber frames can't be realistically be repaired. Each NMC chemistry module is 48V × 8 per pack = 384V nominally rated as 360V. Stock motor specs of 125KW (168 hp) and 250 nm torque (180 ft lb) that could theoretically have significantly higher output for 5 to 10 second burst mode. Breaking down battery specs.. 125,000 motor output ÷ 360 nominal pack voltage = 347 amps 48 volt module × 347 amps = 16,656 watts ÷ 750 watts per hp = 22.208 hp capability per 48v module

Why did u say the original nickel wasn’t capable of the full current output of the cells? At the terminals it gets thin as it comes to a single tab but going between the cell groups there’s a lot of nickel. I have three of these packs and want to put out the max current. Depending where I look I’ve seen them putting out maybe 250amps and I planned to see my esc to that limit. I plan to dremel off the plastic at the terminals and solder a copper strip there and call it done.

@JamesBiggar

11 ай бұрын

Being able to output 250A doesn't mean they should be. The cells in each pack can't even handle that kind of continuous current without risking serious damage, especially with the factory bus bars oriented as they are. The M50lt's are only rated for 14A continuous, 20A peak. 14 * 11 cells in parallel = 154A. At 72V nom, that's only ~11 kW. My bike motor can do 12 kW continuous, hence part of the reason why I broke down 3 modules and paralleled 5 more cells together in each string so the larger pack can handle at least 220A. Refer to the cell spec sheet and bare in mind that max power is not sustained power. But this is just the cells. One of a few reasons why a battery built for low load demands needs to be rebuilt to handle high loads. If you consult a nickel strip ampacity chart and do a calculation on the cross-sectional area, the factory nickel can't handle that kind of current without serious risk of a fire, either. More heat also means less efficiency. Heat is energy, and the more energy wasted creating it, the less you have to play with. Electric powertrains should be kept

I wouldn't be worried about it with 5P, especially if you're pulling current from the middle of the pack and the load is equal to or lower than the max continuous rating for the cells. The original modules that I used were suitable as they were because the load from the bots wouldn't have overloaded the top cells. They just would've degraded faster than the others over time. But the top cells would have been overloaded in my bike for sure, which necessitated the switch.

I wouldn't pull more than 40 or 50A through it. I haven't measured its exact thickness, but I know it's no more than 0.2-0.3mm between the cells, and the main bus bars 'might' be 1mm, and I don't think they're pure nickel or copper (or nickel plated copper). They're very stiff, not soft like nickel or copper. They could be nickel plated steel. You'll want to double check and measure their thickness because that will tell you what the pack can handle - the bus bars would've been built for the current the pack was built for. A 1mmx10mm pure copper strip can handle 49A. Bare in mind that the og modules are built so that the top cells in each series string are taking most if not all of the load vs spreading the load with the reversed bus bar configuration that I used, so they're at a lot more risk of being damaged from overcurrent and are going to degrade sooner than the rest. Each M50 LT cell can only handle 10A continuous and 20A peak, and being in a series connection together, the top cells will each bare the full load, not together. Ie: if you want to pull 50A from the pack, then you're probably going to pull close to 50A through each cell between each series connection at the top. With the arrangement that I used, that 50A load would be spread out to almost every cell in every string so that each only has to deliver a fraction of that current because it's forced to flow from top to bottom through all of the parallel connections to enter and exit the pack instead of just flowing across the top through the series connections. I would personally rearrange the bus bars so the pack lasts longer, but I think if you keep the load under 40-50A then they'll probably be fine as they are. The original bms can't handle anymore than that, so the conductors likely won't either, and I definitely wouldn't push the cells beyond that without making some changes.

Triangular? Not sure what the benefit of trying to pack a triangular battery into a rectangular robot would be. Triangular batteries fit better in triangular spaces. If you mean a staggered cell spacing in the battery to pack them tighter, then there's also a good reason that isn't usually done either. Packing cells too tight causes more heat buildup and lower performance efficiency. Some cell chemistry doesn't produce a lot of heat and others do. This is the type that does. The space gained by staggering cells is marginal compared to the gains in performance efficiency. The space available in the bike can accommodate a battery 3X this size, if I had a budget to build one. So space isn't an issue in this case.

Besides the obvious fact that an Ant doesn't have built in forced air cooling to counter their fallacious current ratings, which would make them larger like this Daly? Because I don't trust companies that don't rate their gear properly because they want to give the impression it's more powerful than it actually is. A 250A Daly is rated for 250A continuous and 400A peak, as advertised. A 250A Ant bms is rated for 250A peak, not 250A continuous like it should be. Understanding how much surge power a device can handle is helpful for design, but in reality no device works under surge power constantly because conductors and components can't sustain surge power for very long. A few seconds at best. That's why electrical components are rated in continuous current because that would be the normal operating condition. Any device pushing peak for too long is doomed to fail, so rating devices on it without explaining the difference to the avg DIY'er is stupid at best, dishonest at worst. Early marketing didn't clarify that with Ant - you were left to guess until push back from consumers and regulators forced them to start posting continuous current rating. When a company is intentionally vague to artificially inflate ratings in the consumer's minds, that's a giant red flag for me. Especially when they're claiming peak values that are twice what their competition's is, from bms' that are smaller than their competition. It doesn't add up unless they're using space age material with different properties than standard conductors that only they have access to. Which I highly doubt. I don't want to deal with a company like that.

This is a decades old debate that no one will ever win. I try not to use solder when it's not required, especially on lugs. The connection as it is is superior to a solder joint in terms of conductivity, since solder itself has a higher resistance than copper and any used to connect a lug to the bar would increase the resistance in that connection just as it did when I soldered the copper wire to the nickel. Not a lot, but if it doesn't need to happen then there's no sense doing it imo. Those screws and epoxy kill two birds with one stone, the same as solder, without increasing resistance.

I have to disagree with the conductivity part. A mechanical connection when looked at under a microscope makes very small connections due to surface linearity not being perfect. Solder is not a perfect conductor, but because of the sheer volume and the way it alloys itself to the metals that it solders too creates a higher conductive connection than a mechanical connection. There's nothing stopping you from putting some solder paste underneath your lug and mechanically torquing it down the way you did and then applying a little bit of heat. I usually use 150 watt to 200 watt soldering iron for connections to thick copper like that with no issues.

@JamesBiggar

I'd have to disagree on that one. If solder were superior, then every permanent electrical connection would be soldered. Torque is important for mechanical connections, whether we're talking about mashing a lug into a soft copper bar or mashing strands of wire into a solid mass with a crimp. Don't torque it properly, then it's not done properly. From my experience, I've always measured higher resistance from soldered joints vs mechanical. But again, it's a decades old debate that no one will win unless you want to provide some data from the results of said microscope analysis on a properly torqued connection vs solder. Perhaps my soldering skills aren't as good as I thought? It's possible. I'm easy to sway with hard facts if anyone has them ;) Each has pro's and cons and we could argue about anecdotes all night.

Thanks for sticking around, but budget determines everything and I'm just one guy. I can only spend so much at a time ✌️

Nope. If I had put any more in parallel then I would have considered cell fusing. But the old packs didn't have them with 10P and they're LG cells, not generic no names from who knows where, so I'm not too concerned about it.

You're just gonna not say anything about the dozens and dozens of headway cells in the background there, eh? ;D

Lol, future ev project. Something more laid back than a street bike.

Why don't they make them like a battery charger but bigger and not welding it together I like my way like you using it in a battery charger but bigger one
