Hi Bernd / Canilin
Thank You very much for your invitation
What I ment was that there was no cracks in the GFK / DOM, so maybe I will wait a little before I will mount the ring.
Hi all
48V Virgintrip: Last weekend I got 48V running in my 1998 Cityel, at last. It is like a total different car
Better acceleration, better speed uphills, runs 70 km/h on flat roads, keep up with traffic trough the city.
But the Trige-motor is quite warm after such a trip and my 3 Vliess batteryes is making a little boiling noise. I did not know Vliess could this and maybe is it is not healty for them ?
Maybe because I din not readjust the max-current limiter yet and it has increased by 10A to 120A.
The big extra 12V battery is made of 4 x 60Ah LiFePo4 (only 10Kg) so it can easy be placed in the rear, to keep my feetspace in the front free:
Der Link wurde entfernt (404). Extra 4. standard lead-acid (blei) charger 12V 15A for the 4 LiFe-batts. And no BMS yet, so I temperary try to look after them manually like small babyes. I bourgt these Thunderskies as little used from Ebay.de in aug. from a scooter project. It is good to get a little practise with a small Lithium-Pack
Der Link wurde entfernt (404). I still mis a DC-DC-Conveter for the moment, but a small 12V 7A sealed lead acid battery did supply light on my 48V-trips.
I was impressed of the Cityel-simplicity because the Cityel was running OK even without 12V !!! (forgot connecting the 7Ah battery after shopping), without light, but good to know for emergencyes !
Noise when turning: The last 300 meters of my first fast 48V trip, the frontwheel made a noise duk, duk, duk when I made 90 degrees turns, with some speed.
Does anybody know the reason for this. The car should not be worn out yet, only 7000Km in all.
My next 2 trips there was only this noise when i make sharp turns with some speed
Could it maybe come from the (riss im DOM !? ) thing so the whole frontwheel-setup i weeker than it should be, and therefor the frontwheel is bending against the side in sharp turns ?
(There is a little new marks from the wheel under the frontwheel housing / DOM )
