All the best,
James

Re: Outlander rear motor and inverter
I should have my front pack in by mid November so can probably wire something in to see if it likes 48s (at least without it moving), I too am interested in running it at lower voltages, am quite tempted by half of a corsa-e/e208 in a 48 to 60s configuration as I can basically get 22-28kwhr and sti...

Re: Outlander rear motor and inverter
I’ll be happy to try it at lower voltages with my test batteries Tom but it’s probably going to be a while before I can get all the parts together. The Nissan Leaf inverter has a low voltage cutoff that kills the whole system at 190v so it’s sensible to check like you say. I wanted to ask, that Opto...

Re: 450H HV Terminal Post 3D Printed Enclosure
Sorry for the slow reply, losing track of the notifications Ooh that’s quite an open ended question… depends what current you’re drawing which may be limited by your battery or other components. As a general ruIe I was always taught that if you multiply the cross sectional area of your wire in mm2 b...

Re: Outlander rear motor and inverter
Apologies if this question has already been answered but I’ve read conflicting reports of the max input voltage the rear inverter can accept. The outlander battery uses 10x 8 prismatic cell modules from memory. Has anyone tried a 96s (360v) ev battery with it and is there any internal logic or limit...

Re: Prius Gen2 adapter board development thread
The Figaro is nearly finished, great car but too much modification required to fit the leaf battery inside. Plan is to try again once it’s finished but with an MGR and Gen 2 Prius inverter which should free up a lot of space in the engine bay for other battery options. @ZooKeeper I downloaded the pa...

Re: 450H HV Terminal Post 3D Printed Enclosure
And today my cable glands arrived, but unfortunately seems there isn't enough space between the two threaded holes for the two glands to screw in side by side, did you find two glands that fit? Could you send me a link to them if so? 20210901_215508.jpg Thanks Dan Glad the print came out well Dan. ...

Re: 450H HV Terminal Post 3D Printed Enclosure
The spacing between the two bolt holes is a few mm too short. I need to confirm if this is my printers accuracy that is at fault and measure it up against the cad model. It's not a big deal I can file it out a little. Thanks for posting this. That’s my bad, I had the same issue as well, the post ho...

No worries, at least if you’re able to turn the bar yourself you can get a better shape from it. … I'm now looking at buying a cheapish 3D printer to have a go at printing the enclosure myself, should be interesting Good luck, I’ve had a lot of success with the Ender 3 V2 but the max print temp is 2...

Re: 450H HV Terminal Post 3D Printed Enclosure
Probably, these 30mm M6 Standoffs from ebay with a 16mm Outer Diameter would also do fine. Just remember to add insulation. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/323796464699?var=513351742345&hash=item4b63c5f43b:g:j58AAOSwyrlcwboJ I've done a quick measurement of the max radius of each standoff and it look...

Fantastic result, very well done! Amazing to see the wheels spin. Did you ever get to the bottom of what was causing the resolver reading to continually peak and trough?

Re: 450H HV Terminal Post 3D Printed Enclosure
Happy to help. Any issues please let me know and I can modify the design. As a tip it’s worth installing the glands and lugged cables into the enclosure first before test fitting it to the inverter. You may need to run the glands through the threaded holes a couple of times to tap them out in case y...

Thanks guys, hope it's useful Question: Why you didn't add 3 small screws to secure the lid? It's a good question. When printed the lid snaps in place really well (obviously depends on your print settings) and makes a good secure fitting with friction. It is removable (with a bit of force) until you...
