Yeh it will

Thanks, I was afraid the battery output was to powerful for the bms.

TarzanHBK · June 4, 2018, 9:00pm

It will, but don´t run lipos until it triggers the low voltage on the bms with 3,0V! Make sure your lipos don´t run below 3,5V per cell. Shouldn´t be a problem if you set your vesc cutout at something like 3,6V and fully charge them to balance them often.

It is marked as up to 80A continous working current so you should be ok

Absolutly agree

TarzanHBK · June 4, 2018, 9:02pm

what do you want to run with it? It might be to low if you wanna build a nice and powerfull mountainboard. For a streetboard it is totally fine even for heavy ass riders most of the time.

J.Biggs · June 4, 2018, 9:04pm

Yeah, Im kinda wanting a mountain board, here’s my thread

Battery question here, i charge my battery till the indicator reach 100%/42.2V, but when i unplag the charger, the indicator down to 98%/41.1V, when i leave it for a day the indicator down to about 94%. The pack has not been used to power anything, even its not connected to the esc. Is it normal or is there any problem with my pack or my indicator.

It’s normal. The battery / cells are balancing. Nothing to worry about

So my battery can push 450c continuously and I’ll be running dual focbox setup so each one should receive 225c. Will that fry my focboxs?

One other question, I was planning on using a bms that would restrict it to 80a discharge. Would that be a waste of battery potential? I was thinking so and was planning on bypassing them then I saw the stats above and was worried I would fry them with that much electricity.

What battery do you have? 80a is a shit load. Don’t think you will need more

J.Biggs · June 6, 2018, 6:52am

Five 2s 5000mah 90c wired in series.

L3chef · June 6, 2018, 6:56am

So it’s 90c then, not 450. It increses with parallel not series.

J.Biggs · June 6, 2018, 6:57am

Ooohhh, really?

L3chef · June 6, 2018, 6:58am

5pcs 2s 5000 mah 90c = 10s 5000 mah 90c when wired in series. 90c is plenty

J.Biggs · June 6, 2018, 6:59am

I was going of this…

b264 · June 6, 2018, 7:05am

Yes

L3chef · June 6, 2018, 7:05am

Yes 300a not 300c

J.Biggs · June 6, 2018, 7:07am

My bad, wrote it wrong. But wouldn’t that still fry the focbox?

L3chef · June 6, 2018, 7:08am

No you are good aslong as you setup your boxes correctly. I think default setting is max 130a.
