  • Hey guys,
    Thanks for checking out this video!
    In this video we're building a Hailong G56 case into a 52V 12.8AH lithium ion battery pack.
    This is the 2nd in a 4 part series for how to construct lithium ion batteries.
    Our first video we built a skateboard battery, our next video will be a custom made triangle battery (from scratch), and our last battery will be for an electric dirt bike / motorcycle.
    Subscribe to stay tuned, and let us know what you'd like to see!
    Thanks again and stay safe!

    I'm impressed by the know-how that goes into making a battery. This video definitely proved to me that I'd be better off buying a ready-to-use battery rather than burning my house down.

    Here's a tip, you can solder to your nickel strips and then spot weld them onto the batteries. That way you can not worry about heat. It does change your order of operations though, but just something to consider because cold solder joints can lead to problems

      I just drilled through the positive and negative nickel strips/bus-bars and fixed a ring connector via a nut and stubby bolt. Then epoxy resin to keep it in place. Seems to work o.k

    Very nice vid. Just a question. With the cells all so wrapped up and protected, how is the heat generated from the cells during usage are going to escape the fish tape and kapton tape in order for the cells to cool down since the batt will be enclosed?

    I AM AN AVID FAN OF EBIKE ESCOOTER
    CAN I ASK YOU A QUESTION, I NOTICED THAT YOU DIDN'T PUT FUSE IN THE CHARGING PORT, I ASKED THIS QUESTION BECAUSE I MISTAKENLY SHORT CIRCUITED THE CHARGING TERMINAL AND THE RESULT THE CHARGER STAYS GREEN WHICH SUPPOSED TO BE RED AND WILL ONLY GREEN WHEN IT IS FULLY CHARGED.
    CAN YOU GIVE AN INSIGHT TO THIS PROBLEM PLEASE

    • @ElectricBikeLaboratory
      @ElectricBikeLaboratory  Месяц назад

      Most likely you'll just need to replace the charge port. Try charging from the discharge side (provided you have common port BMS aka 2 wire BMS that allows charging and discharging from same wire)
      Hope this helps !

  • @ObiDanKinobi
    @ObiDanKinobi 21 день назад

    Interesting video dude. The right tools make for light work. ;)
    I didn't have a decent soldering iron, so i instead used a crimper and spade connectors to connect any 12awg wires together. Combined with the plastic heat shrink tubing (with adhesive) seemed a decent fix.
    Also in the ethos of utilizing as little heat on the cells as possible, i decided to improvise the main power lines onto the negative and positive bus bars, by drilling holes through the nickel strip then using ring connectors via nuts and bolts to fasten them together. After tightening them right up, i then epoxy resined over the fixing, for added stability/security. (vibrations would have a habit of loosening nuts over time i reckon) Way i figure it is if upwards of 500w of power is persistently flowing through a system, you wanna make damned sure that the fixing ent gonna crumble away. I reckon those solder joints on the main power lines could be a weakest link. Having solder in 3 places adds redundancy for sure, but i speculate that a hard fixing point is the way forwards. Meh i'm no professional electrical engineer though tbf ;)

    you state you do not need to do the positives as no current, can i ask how you worked that out, current flows from negative to positives as amps are not used in a circuit but are returned, i have never seen like this before from any other battery builder.
