    I just found this constant current / constant voltage step down (buck) charger module that can supply up to 3 amps and 30 VDC from a DC source, and it has an LED indicating charging and full charge (OK). This should work for small lithium battery packs or single cells, or even one or two 12V...

    I have to rethink my charging, so I decided to take a closer look at TC chargers (aka Elcon). It seems, that these chargers (with CAN) are more flexible and less expensive than f.e. Zivan charger (which I use today). Now I have to find a way to communicate with the TCCH to set voltage and...

    I made a detection, which I would like to share. Since 2009 I use a Zivan NG3 charger to charge my battery pack. I used a Curtis 1221C, than updated to a 1231C Motor Controller. The charger (sometimes two NG3 in parallel) was connected to the battery every time (output) and pluged in (AC) when...

    In the Citroen C1 EV conversion the charger has been modified to allow the BMS to control the charge voltage and hence the multiturn potmeter has been removed. Being in the process of replacing the BMS, we would like to get rid of this modification and refit the potmeter. Only we have no...

    There is a thread in sci.electronics.design that showed some major safety and performance issues with wall chargers for iPhones, iPads, and other phones and tablet devices. This may be a bit OT for EV chargers, but since "everyone" uses these devices it's important to know, especially the...

  18. Technical Discussion
    I proposed this idea in the discussion on BMS design techniques, but I think it deserves its own thread. My idea, essentially, is to make a module consisting of cells in series to produce perhaps 1.6 kWh at 160V (10 Ah), so they may be connected in series and/or parallel for up to 640 VDC and...
