I have mine mounted to the seat bolt on a gooseneck mount from Arkon ($29.95 from Amazon). I love it. With proper installment, it doesn't hit my...
I don't have time to elaborate much, but I got it working, as of 10:41 am. July 16! I bought a local salvage battery from a 2005 with 100K+...
I'm currently checking into salvage yards in the area. I've ordered 10 G2 cells from eBay. I'm going to go ahead with the G2 upgrade, but now,...
I can order 36 of the cheaper cells @ $33 each ($1188 + tax = $1288.98) plus $6.14 shipping (not sure if they combine) = $221.04 (at most,...
Chapman, I really appreciate that thoughtful response and the time you took to write it. I do think I may have "jumped the gun," so to speak....
I was considering that. I have some very clean copper pipe on hand (1" variety) that I was planning to use to fabricate the parts needed. I can...
... they're in the mail. I'll know as soon as they arrive. But that info really helps, so thanks again for the input! Trying to piece this puzzle...
(usnavystgc): It is well documented on this site and I've personally read numerous examples of putting 2g modules into a 1g case. They will fit....
(Patrick Wong): 1. The 38 modules are connected in series. Hence the current outflow of 80A as cited in the case study applies to every module....
Ah, I see (I think). The voltage method of determining SOC is unreliable because a stated goal of battery manufacturers is to provide as steady a...
Excellent. That gives me a good reference. So I guess my 3.7A charge rate was too high. I imagined it was low because others had stated a 1C rate...
(Patrick Wong): There is no definitive link between a particular NiMH battery voltage and battery SOC. See for example: State of charge -...
Thanks, Patrick. I was wondering what the upper end should be. I hope pushing my cells that high has not weakened them further. I know SOC is a...
(From usnavystgc): Doof, Here's is some advice from a retired STGCS(SW). Slow down!!!. And I know you think its going super slow already. The...
(also from Patrick Wong): As I previously stated, you have an incorrect concept: that SOC is directly proportional to battery voltage where 0%...
Thanks for the suggestions! Does that mean each module should be measuring at least 7.2 volts at rest? And especially after 1 year of...
(From Patrick Wong, 6/27/13 at 6:27 p.m.) 1. You should measure the voltage of each module, which should be at least 7.2V which is the nominal...
Oh, and I was getting a P3009 code (HV leak), according to the dealership paperwork, but I think their voodoo priests factory technicians may have...
I ended up reworking the wire frame assembly by cleaning it off in vinegar/baking soda, then rinsing & drying. Then I reattached the copper by...
This was started as a private conversation on accident (noob first post blunder), so I'm restarting the thread here. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *...
