    Because everyone keeps asking, the build was around $3,100. In part 2 I will do a detailed breakdown on what and what not to buy, and if building one is even worth the effort (spoiler: you can buy them mostly assembled from AliExpress for cheaper so building one is only worth it if you love building things)
    I’m not normally the type to ask for you to subscribe, but I have 3 other projects I’m working on currently that are similar to this and the videos doing well helps motivate me to build more stuff, so hit that button!
    Also, I’ve learned a lot about building battery packs since this video, would anyone be interested in a tutorial that goes through the thought process of making a pack?

      @@ayon3x Yeah I am interested in doing that, but I can't decide whether to use a new cheap bike or a used one off marketplace. In a lot of videos like that, the person finds a great bike for like $100 or already has one and that's the main reason the build is so cheap, but most people won't get a deal like that. I was thinking about buying one of those cheap moped style bikes and upgrading it, maybe keeping the budget under $1900 for a 6000w ebike.

    Heyo, I work with high-voltage EVs and some stuff I feel like I should just mention as a safety.
    Please do NOT use solder on HV lines. The HV terminals are meant to be crimped. High voltage connection can easily get hot enough in some situation to melt the solder. It is industry standard to never solder these as it is a safety issue.
    I would also double check the bus bar size and thickness you are using to connect the cells together. Depending on how much current you pull through your pack, the bus bar (seems like you are using nickel or tin strips) may add a lot of heat you don't want.
    Very cool build and clean video! Keep up the good work!

    • @Calthecool

      @@XxBanziixX1 I now know to not solder those wires, although it should probably be fine considering they are big copper terminals with 3 gauge wire.

    You get what you pay for when it comes to 18650's. That is such an important aspect of the build. For example I can really accelerate hard on my 7kw E-scooter it's pulls just as much as my camaro til about 20/30 mph, not to say it doesn't have top speed but E-scooters with road tires are INCREDIBLY SUSCEPTIBLE TO SPEED WOBBLE AT 60-70mph. "DON'T GET ROAD TIRES"
    I hit speed wobble twice and I wasn't wearing a helmet because I was just going down my own street. Anyway brother I have some High end LG cells I paid a butt load for but they make a HUGE difference in available power under load. I can go look it up if you want, let me know.

      It can go 45mph/72kph if I enable something called "field weakening", but it goes 40mph/64kph without that. It cost around $3100, but it's about to cost $3650 when I buy new forks and a rear shock. The battery lasts a long time, I can't tell you exactly how long because I haven't measured it.

    hi....looks like you need a thicker fork...and be sure to check metal tempering....the more it gets super hot and cooled quickly ...the more brittle and harder the metal...practice makes perfect...keep up the good work...

    As much as this is an awesome video and cool project, homemade battery packs are a big red flag to me. Without a proper bms and safety testings, it's basically a fire waiting to happen. Be safe man!

    • @Calthecool
      @Calthecool  10 дней назад +1

      It's got a BMS and it's all wired correctly. I think the cheap Chinese battery packs assembled by actual children are the bigger issue, and the people who buy those also tend to not take care of them. I only run this pack at max power for

      @yrguitar1 10 дней назад +1

      @Calthecool personally I wouldn't use a bms that wasn't specifically designed for a lithium ion pack. Is the bms certified? Has it gone through proper testing?
      I have seen 18650 fires myself and they are quite scary. They release toxic gases, fire, and spread fast.
      Uncertified, untested Chinese batteries are also a huge problem. That's why laws are being passed requiring certification. That doesn't mean homemade battery modules aren't. Additionally it's not during use that scares me most, it's during charging. Does that bms monitor temps in addition to just voltage?
      Maybe its out of an abundance of caution, or from what I have seen with li-ion and 18650 packs, but At the end of the day I wouldn't risk my safety or my families with an untested uncertified battery pack.

    I built exactly the same battery pack.
    but 20s 13p LG cells
    What was built in a triple stack.
    For my stealth bomber
    but I used 2 mm of nick
    And 2mm copper 2x =4mm copper.
    2 mm of nickel strips is nowhere near enough.
    for 72v 150A.
    And I only used BMS for charging.
    And use a diy pre-charge system contact for discharging.
    The way you built that battery pack.
    It will be touching the sides
    Very tight.
    The side boats will be touching.
    I don't blame you i done them mistakes in the past.

    • @Calthecool
      @Calthecool  25 дней назад +2

      Yes this was my first pack so there are definitely some mistakes. I think that it will be fine touching the sides, as it's wedged in there tight and I used the plastic sheets. I think that 8mm x 0.2mm nickel was fine for this pack, as each strip will only carry 10 amps. It will also only be outputting 150 amps for a brief period of time, because the motor is a 5T winding so it accelerates too fast to be able to pull full power for long, unless I rode it in deep sand or something.

    Next time use acetone, it dissolves the glue from thr cells. Place the cells standing up in a 1cm bath off acetone and after 1 houre the glue will just fall off.
