Bearing - Understood now with the Jackshaft.. My motor will protrude "some" on the right side without a jackshaft - but some to think of it, it would be easier to change ratios with a a jack... Hmmm..

Batteries - Interesting racks. How will you attach the metal straps to the cells?

The bus bars are installed with screws that are already on the cells.

There are going to be 4 in parallel. So it's 800 amps peak; and the 20C max is actually pretty conservative for these cells.

38120P are 8Ah. The s cells are the 10Ah ones.

I mean, 20C is good for a cell..... its only a 10Ah cell, so 200A is pretty damn good.

Chinoz 156V 7 amp charger instructions. These are pretty new at EVComponents. I think some people have had questions about them.

Looking at the specs for the Warp 8 the case length is 14.69"? The case on my 7.5" series motor is about 12" and it only extends to the inside edge of the brake pedal on my '90 zx10. The sprocket is pretty close to where it was on the ice and I was able to use the original chain. Maybe the frame is wider on my bike. I'm only running 72 volts x 85 ah lead acid so 500/2 = 250 to account for peukert and using 4:1 gearing and I top out at 60 mph but it has plenty of power with one exception. From a dead stop. I really wish I had some kind of small two speed transmission. I think if I ever need a jack shaft I will look into possible transmission that would serve both purposes. I was thinking about an overdrive units like this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/land-...item58839b0b28

I recognize that charger. I plan on using the 2000W version for my conversion.

I cant seem to find the charger on EVcomponents site though. Only see one for 650 (unless they are selling the 1500W charger for 650!)

We put the first battery pack together yesterday

Updates?

The eNinja project is off to a slow start here... Waiting for the title to finish transferring into my name before I do anything of any substance.
Literally all the parts are lined up now and I have a better battery weight distribution plan that I will show you soon.

Cool project

What do you mean with conservative?

5C



10C



15C



The voltage sag @ 15C is pretty heavy.

I'm thinking about replacing my ThunderSky batteries in my car with this Headway cells. When I'm calculating the power output I'm using 15C as the maximum
