The Similarly Stimulated Saturn

A few days ago I was checking the battery pack voltages and noticed that 5 of the cells were reading over 4 volts and fail code warning.

The BMS (battery management system) controller has two 12 volt inputs. One when the key is on (load power) and the other when the vehicle is being charged (source power).

I am trying to find put why I do get a voltage reading from the ammeter as
it is suppose to, but the Elithion BMS does not recognize it.

The system is up and running but I have had a big problem with the source (charge) current sensor.

Against the advice of Jack Rickard and James Edmonson I have installed a BMS to monitor the battery pack voltage and chargin

During the motor failure and replacement I looked for a better way to make connections where components could be removed, replaced or tested without cutting wires.

The following is a collection of links and information comparing the best EV battery chargers on the market in 2011.

In October 2011 I was driving to lunch down a local road, Vann drive with my wife when snap, crackle, pop > Rice Krispies. She said what was that? did you do that? I said no, ah oh.

I enjoyed the event EVCCON in Cape Girardeau, Missouri September 2011. First time I had to share ideas with many similar minded EV converters.

Testing a thermoelectric air conditioning system. Will try some things, see if it is practical enough to install in the EV Saturn.
