When do I ever learn to take the Dremel to the inside of my BB before installing something electronic, that is going to fill the BB area completely
|
It came out and took the wires with it
|
No way to take it apart without tools, which are going to be around the same as a new torque sensor
|
Also the part with the wire is plastic, so one has to be very careful that it's not getting stuck on anything
|
Ouch.
|
You can rent a puller for free from Autozone @cnrd
|
This bike is great an all but
|
I snapped my chain :(
|
Oh well, time to push the thing back 3 miles
|
üòÖ
|
Push? Can’t you just pedal?
|
@TheGrayWolf81 Protip: don't use chain breaker tools to reassemble a chain, use master links for that
|
Second protip: if it snaps because it fell off and got munched, switch to a narrow-wide sprocket
|
I’m so dumb
|
> Snaps chain
|
“just pedal”
|
pedal faster, maybe the wind resistance from your feet kicking will work
|
> Push? Can’t you just pedal?
|
@Akbar most of it is at a slight uphill, just enough to render pedaling impossible on this bohemoth.
|
Ouch
|
Ride it like a skateboard

|
@Black Moons Yep, that's exactly what the cause was. The crank-to-wheel chain is brand new with a master link, but the motor-to-crank chain is the original chain from the bike which I stupidly tried to put back together with a chain tool XD
|
I expected it to snap again at some point. Just, I was having too much fun and forgot about it XD
|
Just put a master link on it though
|
Everything is good
|
Except the chain tensioner. @Black Moons how did you install yours?
|
Like the manual says to
|
spring goes to a ziptie
|
> manual
|
I didn't even realize there was a manual

Thank you
|
Back to this channel again :(

Rip
|
Most of the cell groups are between 3.4-3.5v
|
ouch
|
But there are two that are around 3.2-3.3v
|
One cell group is at 3v
|
:/
|
o o o f
|
So I guess I found my issue
|
lack of tissues?
|
But I don't have any more of those cells to replace the bad cell group
|
don't say the c-word around @Deleted User
|
;0
|
No, I think I damaged the cell group when I was first testing out the bike before I had a BMS and charger
|
Well since I didn't have a charger, undervolted obviously :P
|
I did a few circles around the neighborhood because I couldn't hold back
|
Then I measured the cell groups and saw that one of them was at 2.4v
|
The next day they probably equalized and we're at 2.8v
|
But they stood that way for a week and a half until I got the BMS and charger
|
Well 2.8 is the minimum voltage. And a week isn't that bad. its if they stay for like a month that way that it starts to do damage
|
It should theoretically be around 12.4Ah
|
> maybe you can find some random salvage cells for free that'll be good to swap in
|
@Deleted User no, I need the same exact cells
|
I just don't feel like it's worth the time and money trying to fix this pack. I'll just keep using it until I get new cells and equipment to spot weld and build the battery
|
It's just super annoying when the BMS protection kicks in, there's no reset button. I have to replug the balance cables
|
But I'll use it until I build a new pack
|
@TheGrayWolf81 It should auto reset once the voltage gets high enough, ie you charge the battery
|
Yeah
|
Not helpful when you need to just get home slowly though
|
fo sheezy
|
just make a BMS with hundreds of 40A switches in it
|
I have to say though, I still get decent range for what the pack is
|
It's funny how there's all these muscle car guys who but all this time money and effort into making their cars fast and powerful
|
Then they get yeeted by a Tesla
|
I'll be so happy when battery technology advances to the point where battery packs don't have to be so huge and heavy
|
Im still waiting for aluminum-air batteries to be sold like $10 for a KWH pack at the corner store.
|
(Actually I guess it would need to be a few orders of magnatude cheaper for car use... even for bike use $10/kwh is pricy)
|
what?
|
they are one time use.
|
recharging an aluminum air battery = you throw it back into the aluminum smelter and pour a new one.
|
Its convenient when you can instantly recharge shit and your 1KWH battery is smaller then a can of pop
|
I see it as a great option for range extension
|
Pretty sure it is actually.
|
at least, best conceivable we have proven to work, not spontaniously explode/need to be kept at 400c, etc.
|
there is *crazy* amounts of energy in aluminum->aluminum oxide transission
|
*shrugs*
|
Silver-air batteries already do it.
|
only problem is the cost on those is crazy.
|
did you know the power company has been charging you for the same electrons since you moved in?
|
just shares em between you and your neighbors -_-
|
they have fancy ass electrons that get to travel and see the world over the HV lines, but they never share those üò¢
|
üôÇ yea. (For others who are wondering what im talking about, electrons don't pass through transformers primary to secondary, so your basically just stuck using the same electrons over and over on your side of the transformer)
|
Yep
|
electrons don't even really get to see the world üòõ
|
they are stuck going back and forth along the same 36km of wire or so üòõ
|
Funky.

|
TIL if you have cable disc breaks and your cable is too long, it will eventually find its way into the rotor and try to kill you. Trim cables
|
ouch.
|
Yikes hope the dudes ok
|
Remember, never tow a 600cc with a 250cc.
|
Battery wasn’t sparking when plugging in Anderson... could just be the BMS shutting it off as protection... so be me and just use a cheap Chinese battery instead to see if it’s the battery’s fault.
|
Cell instantly explodes
|
Good BMS right there
|
lol shorted controller or something?
|
I‚Äôm scared to try it again üò¶
