Can I ask, why do you use 2 12-gage wire connecting the batteries in series instead of another strip of nickel? 25:40 And then you use copper braided tape instead of 2 12-gage wire to connect them in parallel 28:34
The main reason is for flex. Since the deck flexes, I want the wires in that flex direction to be able to flex freely without any risk of abrasion or fatigue. However in the other direction, there should be almost no flex, so I used the braid because it's lower profile and faster than cutting a ton of smaller wires.
Really good looking battery pack. Getting everything tucked neatly inside is always a pain for me. Your stuff is always super helpful🙏🙏🔥🔥😎
I appreciate your support! This one was indeed annoying and quite tight.
Blue Bird, never knew its name.
I live in the Red Bird State, just a odd fact.
Great Video, the man might just be a professional or beyond.
Haha yeah this board is so old at this point, but it does its job consistently! Thank you!
Why didn’t I get notified when you uploaded this I have post notifications on ….either love the video
Haha thanks for watching. You can thank UA-cam for that, they've never been consistent with those sorts of things
Yes a battery video...woohoo! Thank you. Would also love a detailed video on programming (recommended/best settings) a MakerX VESC !?!
I think he has a vesc programming video already.
I do actually, it is quite up to date. Let me know if you think there's anything I missed.
Sorry my bad... I need to rewatch it for sure (I forgot)! Thanks
Last time i saw someone building a battery, some fog formed and followed by wild fire! i think i'll just watch on screen it's safer😁
Hahah that's totally fair! Enjoy from afar
🤙🏽⚡️🤟🏽⚡️👌🏽
Thanks for watching!

Heh thanks mate - so sorry to hear about your shop. Hope it all works out!
