DIY ebikes fire during storage |
When your 72v battery isn't charging so you decide to store it without even disconnecting it |
yikes |
Where's that from @Akbar |
facebook DIY ebikes page |
yikes |
I wonder where the batteries were fro... |
from* |
He didn't disconnect non charging battery from bike when he stored it |
Alongside 2 other ebikes |
What's the story |
he said he has built lots of batteries lol |
yeah |
this is why it's a good idea to be personally liable for it |
Did he ring the fire brigade? |
before taking the pic? |
Basically his 72v battery wasn't charging. |
So he store the bike in shed with 2 other ebikes without disconnecting battery |
wow nice |
so it just went up |
For all we know could have been other 2 |
ü§∑‚Äç‚ôÄÔ∏è |
Battery was 72v 20ah Sony 25a cells and 100a sabvoton |
Put reflective tape and spoke covers on the wheel,led strips pointing inwards on the inside of the forks and stays |
At least it was stored outside |
This is why I don't regret my heavy LiFePo4 packs |
@Akbar someone pointed out looks like he had solar panels aswell |
lol yes |
maybe something happened with that |
I mean he had 3 ebikes in that shed and a solar panel |
some form of charging was going on |
Prob a home rew charger that failed to stop |
What kind of lifepo4 battery do you have? |
Or did you build your own |
And yeah, a lifepo4 wouldn't really cause a fire like that. |
Guys I need help lol |
The bolt for the derailleur hanger has come loose and i can’t see a thread |
Oh I need a nut |
I checked an identical bike and it has a special nut which goes there |
Lmao how did you manage that |
I suspect I lost the nut many months ago |
And my derailleur hanger was being held on by the axle nut |
The only reason the bolt is still there was because the torque arm stopped it falling out |
@Akbar that looks like a gubbin that your local bike shop prob has an entire bin of used ones |
Too late lol I bought one |
£3 for bolt and nut, £5 for bolt, nut and hanger |
So went and bought the bolt nut and hanger |
my bbshd doesnt turn on anymore after 1 month usage of Luna’s ludacris controller |
oof |
i put the stock controller back on and it still doesnt turn on |
mine chewed up its gears/shaft |
does it make any noise |
or just refuses to turn on? |
yea it refuses to turn on with either controller, no weird noise it wasn’t even hot when it died |
ive checked the cables like 10x, no odd smells, no weird noises |
i think the motor core is blown |
Fried sensors |
id say ud have to open it to check |
Or core |
anything odd? looks fine to me |
blown sensors might not be noticable. ud need a multimeter. same with the core |
what part should i test for with my multimeter? |
the hall sensors, and the phase leads, see if theres is a short or a high resistance |
im not 100% sure |
im a MURIKAN, when my bbshd died i just got a cyclone XD |
lol thanks |
^^ |
First, while its plugged into controller, or manually proving 5v to hall sensors |
check the voltage on each hall sensor, one pin of them should toggle low/high as you manually rotate the motor |
if it doesn't then you need new hall sensors |
prob not the center pin, since those are all connected |
Generally, hall sensors are the first to fry, thermally. followed by magnets and coils |
In that order? magnets fry before coils? |
Always |
Magnets have a lower critical temp to lose their power than the coils do before they burn tru their wire enamel and short. Of course a massive spike in heat in the coils (such as a hard stall) could possibly cook the coil before the heat has time to sink into the magnets |
I thought the coil insulation melted first, thanks for telling me this |
Depends on quality. Really cheap wire prob would melt first. But decent quality ones the enamel failure temp would be hire than the denaturing(don't think that's the right term) temp of magnets. Doesn't take alot of heat to cook a magnet |
^^ the magnets lose strength first, but you'll prob short a coil before you completely ruin the magnets |
so you'll find your motor loses power, maybe has a higher top RPM when unloaded |
(but much less torque) |
ANY CLUES where this lil magnet goes in my bafang hub motor |
I noticed it was on the motor in that pic where the paste is next to the axle and gear |
the magnet is in my hand |
uhhhhhhhhhh |
lmao |
oh boyu |
i hope thats not a magnet from the housing |
or maybe it goes in the lil slot on this side in the middle? |
cause it has a curve |
oh wait |
ya it might be the key |
for that keyway to attach to the shaft |
maybe? |
I just swapped the motor out on an old sondors and the wheel wasn't turning so i took it out and opened it to look at it. |
see if it fits |
it Def fits in there |
just kinda annoying to get back in |
yea |
thats what ties the motor shaft to the planetary |
