One that we did not compare in this video was the Malectrics , we had one ordered for this review but since they ship from Europe it has not arrived and we wanted to get this video out there. We plan to update this video when we get the Malectrics

Incredible EBike Build, Highly Customized (3KW BBSHD)
Переглядів 1 тис.2 місяці тому
Our friend Andre stopped by the shop today to show us his E-Bike and I've gotta say, I was quite impressed. The bike has a buttery smooth 8 speed driveline paired to an ultra high powered BBSHD (ASI 855 controller). It was something words cannot quite describe. Today we took a deeper look into this tricked out machine! Hopefully it can inspire some ideas for our viewers. Note : I recommend wear...

Triple your E-Bike Power? Here's How (Part 2 : Mods)
Переглядів 12 тис.5 місяців тому
In this video we dive into how we are going to modify this Troxus Lynx to be 3x the power compared to original. That may sound like hyperbole but the math works out to the bike being around 1,000W in stock form and we're going to up that to 3,000W in modified form. To do this we are using the following components; 1) ASI BAC855 Advanced Motor Controller www.affordableebikes.ca/products/asi-bac8...

DIY - This Tiny Battery Peaks Over 5000W , and its Bluetooth!
Переглядів 1,8 тис.5 місяців тому
This little guy has some pretty impressive specs! The Samsung 50S cell produces 25A Continuous and 45A peak, meaning that 2 in parallel gives 90A peak at 72V (90A x 72V = 6480W). Now you'd obviously drain it pretty fast at that rate, but still fun to know the power is there.

    Please, stop using background music at all. My ears started bleeding already and I only made it half thru the video .. Made it finally thru without getting a sudden hearing loss ;-) So the conclusion is, either use a spotwelder based on 3000F supercaps or one that uses car batteries with an Amp rating of at least 300, 350Amps.

    Be careful, buddy, Samsung 50S get's pretty hot (over 70°C) at 15A continious.. If you want 25A continious you should rather use Molicel 45b's, these are good for 35A!

    thank you for posting this video. I've a learned a lot form it. two things to mention: you do not have a battery holder? It is painfull to watch the wobbling battery during welding. second, in the first few test with the smaller spot welder, you say it holds and it pass... not for me. if i can pull it off easy it is NOT a PASS

    No one had any issue with the battery "mount"? Those foam tape strips aren't going to hold 40lbs in an accident. I don't believe it was stated in the vid what the power of the controller was but the wire coming out of the xt90 adapter cable to the battery looked comically undersized. Might work for 3kw. If this is an 8kw+ build those wires are going to get toasty. The foam tape being the batter retention mechanism was the craziest part.

    Why would you not just buy brand new lithium ion batteries? and run them in parallel. instead of buying prebuilt battery packs to then have to dismantle it. and redo the work again. Is there a benefit from it or something?

    Thanks for the test. I am looking for a device to weld batteries for drones, and honestly I wouldn't trust any of this little welders. I teared apart some industrial welded battery packs, and man, they had weld spots. It ripped apart the nickel strip, the weld spot was way stronger. If a spot welder cannot archive this, I will stay with my soldering iron. There is no space for mistakes when flying.
