Re: Jaguar XJ6 V12 will be electric!!!

Big update!!!! It's alive!!!! Well, the first test passed, and the engine is Spinning. I'll leave some videos below. For those who can help, we went crazy with a series of errors. The engine was turning but immediately locked up. We finally discovered that the MG1 and MG2 connectors were wrongly con...

Re: Battery packs with 3p

Adding more details. The cells in the Kona battery pack are LG E63B, Chemistry = NMC622 Model. As per specifications, it has 3C max discharge. As it's is 65Ah. Then this package is 3p configuration so 567Ah max discharge. That means 226kw max peak power. I wanted to bring this up to understand how w...

Re: Jaguar XJ6 V12 will be electric!!!

I don't have a screenshot of the parameters but the throttle works fine, the Udcsw is set to 0 as I'm not using ISA Shunt yet. The inverter is winding. I will try tomorrow to upload this video.

Re: Jaguar XJ6 V12 will be electric!!!

A new week, new progress but currently stuck. After connecting everything needed and adjusting the pedal parameters, etc., the motor shaft won't turn; it seems something is blocking it, when we press the throttle, the motor moves but just initiates the spin and stops like it was blocked. It rotates ...

Re: Battery packs with 3p

Good morning everyone, I would like to continue with this topic. Certainly, the performance is not as directly related to the parallel cells as I initially thought. But the origin of this post was to list the possible batteries for the Lexus GS450h and their serial numbers. Parameters to consider......

Re: Battery packs with 3p

Alright, depending on the cell's discharge and its chemistry, we might achieve the same or better performance with a 2P configuration. Okay. Anyway, as I was saying, it's not about having a debate or escalating to harsh tones when speaking. I would have preferred if we had approached the topic diffe...

Re: Battery packs with 3p

Well, again, my intention with this post is to compile the battery packs with 3P configuration and its part numbers. Of course there are more aspect as weight and size in terms of performance but, if you need high current fast, better go for 3P. Remember the discharge depends on the parallel cells. ...

Re: Battery packs with 3p

Hi Tom, surely you know a lot in detail, and it's not my intention to stir up controversy here. Just to clarify, generally speaking, having three cells in parallel, with the discharge rates being typically 1C, impacts the total capacity of the battery, its discharge current, and, ultimately, the per...

Battery packs with 3p

Hello everyone, I wanted to bring up a topic for discussion. I'm analyzing which battery I will use in my conversion, and since it's with a GS45h, I'll be looking for one with a 3p configuration to allow for high performance. I was considering MEB batteries, but I realize that other models, such as ...

We are making progress!!! We are testing the VCU - Inverter - GS45h but without the batteries, using a PSU that offers low amperage, max 5amps. and 60Volts. After a few attempts, we have the inverter working but still with some errors. I have an error in the PRECHARGE. Additionally, I haven't instal...

Re: SOH Meter for Battery Pack When You Purchase Them

No, you can't just connect a BMS to a battery and expect it to magically determine SoH. The LBC only provides for the battery it has been connected to because it observes the behaviour over a long time. Yep, well this is what I thought. And actually, will be great to create some device capable of c...

Nice Johu!!!, I will check the Nissan leaf BMS option :) that sounds like a short-term solution for me. Thanks, I will keep updating this post.

SOH Meter for Battery Pack When You Purchase Them

Wanted to start a discussion here. I'm planning to buy a battery pack and here in Poland, there are many options. Although my main goal is to go for ID3 or ID4 batteries from VW, I could consider others. The problem comes when trying to know the SOH state of the pack. When you are buying them, the v...

Got some updates here, working on the clutch to get the shaft locked in place and doing some soldering on the VCU. Speaking of which, I was supposed to solder three Mosfets onto IC27, IC28, and IC29, but I ended up losing one of them :( So, now that I'm checking the ones I've already soldered, they ...

Amazing work compiling this. I guess we should update this list this year. I understand that Tesla M3 PCS should be here? MG ZC too? This will be nice to have it written down in the wiki.
