Nice car, like someone else commented those wires on the motor being down low I wonder how it would handle wet weather or is this a dry weather cruiser.
@calholli
@calholli 3 года назад
I would have wanted that motor rotated--- so that the wire connections are not hanging down to snag things. Nice build for sure. The batter is much smaller than I would have expected.... One thing that I wonder, and maybe you guys could test it: So if you are going up a long hill--- is it more efficient to run in a lower gear and keep the RPM's up-- or would it be more efficient to shift into a higher gear and lug the motor down a bit more?? I just wonder if one way saves battery better than the other--- or is it just changing the torque and RPM curves, while still sucking the same battery either way.. ?? If there was a good, long 5 mile hill somewhere that could be ran in each gear and maybe even give the battery full charge each time for consistency. I'm really curious to know the science behind the answer--- I think this would make a good video and pretty easy to make; because I've heard other people ask this same question.
@felixwe9
@felixwe9 3 года назад
Depends on the motor and the operating point. Typically electric motors are inefficient at high speeds with low torque demand and low speeds with high torque demand.
@calholli
@calholli 3 года назад
@@felixwe9 Right.. but where is that line drawn? so would 2nd gear be better? or 4th gear? ..... Also, how much would we save if only doing 50mph (in a 65)-- while going up a hill... ect. I just want to fully wrap my brain around the science and all the variables in the different ways that it can be driven-- what is best?

@@CasualGearheads idk.. I just thought they could definitely fit some more tesla modules in that front trunk, with a more custom box. I understand why they did it the way they did--- for simplicity: just a square box... and Sure, 100 mile range will be fine 99% of the time.............. but if there was anything: "what else could you ask for" --- it would be more range, for sure.

Yes it is. Within a very short time, no bms means some cells become critically discharged, and damaged, and a high fire risk. The same damaged cells also 'charge quicker' and go over voltage. Bms is essential.
