Separate names with a comma.
You are located in a cold climate. I think that in summer the temperature does not get much higher than 25deg.C. At 25deg.C you should not see any...
I have a question for the battery expert: I have read somewhere that pouch cells go soft when completely discharged. They also go soft if they...
That is a hard habit to break. After all it was the creation of Jack Chenny not MD-Tech. In what ways has the MD-Tech BMS Ver. 1 improved over the...
So it is a version 5 kit. Being a year and a half old well before the version 6 came out. The hot weather in a Texas summer will probably cause...
Taking W9BK's terminal volts opposed to cell volts at <1C charging current theory then having a HVC of 3.6 would be a good idea. You could just...
Your cell 7 is causing HVC. Your cell 13 is causing LVC. Not balanced. It probably just needs more time to balance. Is this the data you are...
Just a thought. It would be handy if the MD-Tech BMS display unit would show whether a HVC occurred during the last charge cycle on the display...
Hi Navy, Do you have anything positive to say about PHEV kits?
Like you said. The Enginer kit is not really suited to the Australia's climate. It is also not suited to a country that is lowly populated with...
So your bms16D is balancing permanently. It mostly balances at the bottom? So your cell 7 causes a HVC at 3.65v.
Hi Sush, Good to hear your kit is doing well. I noticed your website shows the old Version 5 MD-Tech converter which I have in storage and is...
What a load of rubbish. I do not usually say this about any post. However if someone practices their right to speak rubbish they should be...
The kits were always built in China. I think Jack Chenny ordered in bulk from China. MDtech 上海樟村电子有限公司 were the original makers of the Enginer...
The better option is to get the ECM board from PIS which can get near to EV performance but I have yet to hear of anybody who is using it....
I cannot remember how hot they got. The A123 pouch cells also have a higher nominal voltage. The best option is to select the number of cells...
Still working on that one.
It was some time ago so my recollection is not too good. Which cells you use make a difference. The A123 20ah pouch cells has a very low internal...
You can install a OOG (out of gas) switch which will disable the ICE so it will run on battery only. This method mimics the Prius running out of...
Any update. Did the bad cell lose it's vacuum? You can just buy one cell with full tabs from Aliexpress for US$40 includes delivery. New...
Hi Dan, I used the word "dubious" because I have never checked for accuracy as I have never used them for voltage protection on my PHEV kits so...
