Subject: Re: [EVDL] EV pioneers
Yes, I am still here. Been down in the dungeon up dating and up
grading my EV. I now have 45kW of Nissian battery pack in the EV. Can
drive these steep hills and at speed of any other vehicles. Increase
the battery weight so I now can go up icy hills with no problems
passing other vehicles with out any problems.
Parallel six strings of batteries for 226 volts per string for a total
of 199.8 AH.
Sometime ago, I said the most negative cell has a 0.03 higher voltage
then the most positive cell when charging about 50 ah. Then when
charging the most positive cell because about 0.03 volts higher than
the most negative cell.
Normally all the cells voltage are in with 0.01 to 0.02 volts. I am
using the Orion BMS.
These cell modules are not group all together in one block. There are
three separate blocks space 6 inches apart and each module is space
3/16 inches apart. All battery blocks are space 2 to 5 inches from the
battery box. There is a internal blower fan that circulates the air
inside the battery box, a input filter air blower to bring in outside
air, and a exhaust fan to exhaust the battery box air.
The temperature never went above 80 F. Normally its in the 60 to 70 F.
Using a PFC-50 charger set for the Li-Ion batteries at 95% maximum
charge which is about 215 volts or about 4.0 volts per cell, each
string is only being charge at about 8 amps per string or 48 amps/6. At
this charge rate, it still only takes between 30 to 60 minutes to
charge the battery pack.

Subject: [EVDL] EV pioneers
I just had my first notice of Charlie MacArthur and it occurs to me
that
biographies of such EV pioneers are needed. Gone are Charlie, Bob
Rice,
Bob Beaumont. And, of course many others. Bob Beaumont does have a
wikipedia page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Beaumont<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Beaumont>
though it is sadly lacking in detail.
Wikipedia seems like an ideal place to put such things.
Being a student of genealogy, I frequently lament "I wish I had
extracted that information while it was available!". Speaking, of
course, about dead people. The time to accumulate information is while
the subject is alive.
Currently living EV pioneers whose lives and contributions should be
documented would include: Otmar, Jukka, Bruce, David, Lee, Roland.
Wayne
Alexander, Mary Ann Chapman, Gail Lucas, many of the sadly banned drag
racers (I know, only the subject is banned), and numerous others.
Being
a relative newcomer to EVDL and EVs, I lack the knowledge to compile a
comprehensive list.
I notice Roland has been silent for a while. I hope things are well
with him.
Does anyone else have an interest in preserving such history?
