    Thanks Duf 🎉 I'll proud of the modifications I've made. These are almost bullet proof.

      Right? It's a cool combo. You can still go all analog with some of his chargers if you want to.

    Roger knows how to charger forsure!
    Definitely getting one when I order a higher voltage euc.
    Can't wait!

    Next feature: dual charging, so you can charge two wheels from one charger.

    • @grb1969
      @grb1969 8 месяцев назад

      That’s possible with this charger but you’ll either need twice the input voltage or you’ll be limited to half the maximum charge current. Just need split leads.
      One thing that you cannot do with this charger is to charge multiple different voltage wheels simultaneously, nor can you prioritize the charge rates of different wheels so that you and your riding partner will reach 100% S.O.C. At the same time, even though you both needed different Amp-hours or Watt-hours… which would be useful in managing a fleet of wheels, some on maintenance charge and others needing maximum power or priority scheduling. This would require multiple xt-90 connection ports and automatic voltage recognition or its a smoke machine waiting to happen but it would be my fantasy charger, certainly.
      I have no experience with the Roger Charger but it’s leagues ahead of stock chargers in usefulness and definitely worth the price if your time is worth more than minimum wage.
      There are great previous models (for sale used) within the community. I’ve seen them between 25%-50% of retail cost but they aren’t as quickly adjustable if you’ve got a multiple voltage wheel household.

      Yep although would probably need some cable extensions to make that feasible.

    Can you set presets on the charger and, if so, how many presets can you have? I have multiple wheels and would rather not have to manually set the charge parameters every time I charge a different wheel.

      The new firmware doesn't do presets. Just so easy to change voltage, doesn't seem necessary.

      @@roghaj Hi Roger. Personally I prefer presets so I don't make any mistakes like accidentally setting the incorrect voltage when switching back and forth between multiple wheels.

    Able to charge at low amps to, as Roger tells me. Ive a small solar charge set up for wheels so it would be handy for that to in my opinion.

    You don't fully charge the Patton?

    • @Duf
      @Duf  8 месяцев назад +1

      Batch 1 Pattons have an issue that if you fully charge and then do extended hard braking or decline you can potentially fry the board. I know this has been possible with other wheels but evidently this one has a higher tendency for that to occur. This is just my way of minimizing that from happening.

  • @WillofNewZealand
    @WillofNewZealand 8 месяцев назад +1

    I hope I count math right. Two chick's divided by charger amps equals tight shorts and the wheel is charged faster or slower, im putting that as my answer, I could learn to like math.

    • @Duf
      @Duf  8 месяцев назад +1

      Sounds like a solid formula for me

  • @GaryChamberlain-yg7do
    @GaryChamberlain-yg7do 8 месяцев назад

    Patton is 126 V wheel why do you have it set to stop charging at 125 volts ? Would not think cell balancing would happen until voltage is topped off

    • @grb1969
      @grb1969 8 месяцев назад +1

      This is really a question for Roger, who understands the dynamic relationship between voltage and current under various conditions of temperature and SOC. I’m not sure I understand either, so it’s a good question for Roger.

    • @Duf
      @Duf  8 месяцев назад +2

      Because of the batch 1 Patton potential issues with popping the system board if you inadvertently brake too hard after fully charging the wheel. Roger will answer the balance issue but the short answer is, yes, it still should balance.

    • @roghaj
      @roghaj 8 месяцев назад +2

      Smart BMS wheels will balance even when not at full charge. The S22 is an exception. It doesn't have a true smart BMS, but it does have smart reporting. Most things older than the Extreme from begode won't balance until full.
