Hello Ed and Tammy and All, ... Yes. It's in fact, just as I had figured and it is more 'gas' thinking than 'electric' thinking. Don't worry, you'll come...
Hey John. Thanks for the info! Testing all of this is the fun part. Since we do not have a AMP meter just yet ( funding issue) we are learning with this groups...
Hey John, The funny thing is that I can get all of those reading from the Alltax Controller, I just need a small enough Computer to strap to the Bike! Take...
Hello, all, Last weekend Jessica and I escaped from Burien to have breakfast with John and Cheryl Wayland in Portland, followed by an enjoyable and picturesque...
Not a whole lot of difference between 3.3 to 1 and 3.5 to 1 in gear ratio. Looks like you ate having some fun. Brian On Mar 1, 2009, at 8:14 AM, Juiced Drag...
Hey Brian, "Not a whole lot of difference between 3.3 to 1 and 3.5 to 1 in gear ratio." True. I did a check with a volt meter on the motor and Duh, that...
Ed wrote: Has anyone used a PakTrakr 600 just as a Amp meter? Opinions on it ? I've been attempting to use a PakTrakr with the current sensor with no...
Ed, I haven't used a PakTrakr yet but if you just want to measure current in your motor loop you can get a shunt with the proper characteristics to read on an...
Hey Mike. I have looked at a shunt deal. I have a cheap meter that may do the job too. Budget is always good. I like all suggestions! I can afford a PakTrakr...
Hey Mike! Strangely enough I have a nice small MV meter I can strap into the front cowl of the bike. It would be good enough for testing. Not sure if I want to...
If you wanted to use a fancy analog meter with the little red needle that slides with the meter's armature you could use it to indicate and record the peak...
Hey Mike According to Alltrax, It is proprietary data so you have to use their GUI program. I used to have a nice small /Toshiba computer that would have made...
Mike, I have a palm "platinum" sitting on my compoter desk collecting dust!. It needs a new battery, and I'm sure that won't break us. I will bring it in if...
Perhaps an older Palm with some software? They are small, and older ones have real serial ports. You really do need to read amps. The pack voltage will sag...
Just a thought. How about a NEDRA classifieds to sell race stuff to other EV racers first. Roy suggested I let the NEDRA list know of something I have for sale...
Hey Paul! That will be the way I will be going. I have been looking for Amp Meters/Shuts today. We have a place in SC that sells Shunts and I will be calling...
OK, I went out to my garage and took a look around. I have a brand new analog 2000 amp meter with a 3-1/2" square face. I also have the shunt which came with...
Hey Roderick. I would like to see it if it not too much trouble. We are only running a max of 450 amps so I am not sure it I could get enough meter deflection...
Hi Ed, Are you saying that you have a 450 amp max controller? If so please replace it as soon as you can afford to with a much larger amp controller. It will...
You should ask Brian Hall how many amps he is running through an Etek. Most motors can handle a lot for a very short time and a very short time is what we are...
Good Idea. I don't think we need a dedicated classifieds "thing" though. I see nothing wrong with doing it as you did. Put yer stuff in the files section, then...
you can get away with 600-800 amps for a very short time with these mars et-rt (MEO709)motors (not B&S E-tek) .Just make sure the motor is not getting too hot...
be careful with this info, a 500 amp/50mv shunt may not work with a 50 amp meter.well it will work but still give you 0-50 amps. The rating on the shunt...
Untitled DocumentHi All, I thought you all might get a giggle out of this one, especially the statement that they are going to build an electric vehicle that...
I found a 500 amp/50mv shunt for 30$ at Electric vehickles USA (Local Place) I have a 200mv meter. I could strap it to the cowl and take a peek as I make a...
