Piecing together a budget heavy

wheel chair motors tend to be 12v or 24v. I would be surprised if they or their gearboxes could handle the 36v from the A123s. Split the packs otherwise you will burn out the motors. You will also then have more options with speedos

Cheers, Rory. Just sat down with a TZ and an alan key to have a look in them when I saw your post!

I'll just split the packs down into ~12V that way I can just add packs to get 24/36V depending on the bot. That way I don't have to keep making up new ones, just drop in the right number (Plus I can distribute smaller packs around the robot better).

As I do on my feather Gimli I'd limit the sticks so that while I am pulsing 34V the effective max voltage is 24V.

Now I do have a charger that can charge A123 (I-Max B6) but it isn't fast and is only 1 channel. What chargers do people recommend for charging A123s en masse?
