So, I’m fairly new to working with anything about 3s and creating my own wiring harnesses. I was hoping someone would be able to sketch a quick drawing of how I need to wire my board, if its even possible at all. My goals are as follows:
2x 6s LiPos in series to make a 12s.
Antispark killswitch made with an XT90s plug on the positive line.
I was hoping there would be some solution for this where I wouldn’t have to reinvest in another charger. I’m even willing to charge each battery separately, I’m just not sure how to wire things in such a way that I can disconnect them from eachother for charging while keeping the rest of the harness in tact.
Yeah I use the Imax as well, I was just trying to avoid the extra cost. I don’t need a super fast charging solution. So after some more research, this is what I have come up with. Does this look like it is okay to use?
But I read its gonna take the same time than if you charge 1 by 1 …
Thx Gamma2 for your diagram !
I look for charge my 2 x 5s 8ah, it will be the same so (imax b6 too) ? Cause actually I charge one by one
I read that XT90 is more suited for anything over 4 or 5s. Honestly I don’t mind the size. The XT60’s on my 3s LiPos are too tiny to get a good grab on them for disconnecting. The bullet is just a way of connecting them in series in a way that’s easy to undo if I ever want to modify the wiring harness. The antispark loop and other connections will probably be bullets too.
I like the way that diagram is laid out! It looks like they’re using some kind of circuit breaker style for their on/off switch. I personally think just adding a loop key on the positive line is easier. If you wire the batteries in parallel or use a parallel balance board the B6 will charge them at the same rate as doing them one by one.
