External air pressure is generally considered to be 14.7 lbs per sq inch. This equates to approximately 1/3 of an imperial ton on both sides of...
A number of people have asked about the type of screws to use. Any steel or plastic machine screws could be used, but avoid nickle plated or...
I would use the second version if you can set the charge and discharge to 5 amps for two cycles. At the end of the second cycle discharge to 3...
No need to cut the top off another module. You could try my method with 2 holes for the plain water version so you will not have any risk from...
You could try with just plain water to start as this would show if it is necessary to use any chemical. If you have two modules open perhaps you...
A possible problem with using the vacuum method is that the cell plates will be put under pressure towards each other something that does not...
The modules (gen1) seem to have a top thickness of about 6mm (1/4 inch), but was difficult to measure accurately down a hole only 39/1000 of an...
I think you need to be a little more specific on which battery you need. Is it the 12 volt or the HV battery. John (Britprius)
Romario, Email the dealer where you bought the car from telling them the AC does not work correctly and needs re gassing along with a...
This is normal for the HV battery to to discharge when cold starting. The car is powered mostly by electric when cold to keep emissions low by...
MTL would the drawings be of any interest. John (Britprius)
I have drawings for the modules and noted this. With the method of filling I am using half of that void either side would be filled with the...
The electrolyte has a strong ability to creep. It is one of the basic ingreediants for making soap. If you get it on your fingers it turns any fat...
I would not fill the void above the plates in the cells more than 50%, and I think idealy 25 to 30% would be the level to achive. As long as all...
It is important that the cells are not filled, and have adequate air space at the top. If this is not allowed for there is little or no room for...
Yes it would be possible to do rehydrating on a complete battery by standing it on end. The problem is that some electrolyte will spill out when...
To get the pressure up to 160 psi I just plugged the safety release hole. John (Britprius)
The safety valve had obviously stuck closed on that module. This is why in my experiment I only took the pressure up to 160 psi just in case the...
I only had two modules to work with donated by PC member "hybridbatt" so I did not have enough modules to try just using water. To pressure test...
You could refill all the cells with the battery in place but you would have to drill above every cell one hole, and put say 10ml in each. John...
