How is this any different than telling an able-bodied person "we need to cut your legs in half because they're too long"? I get the fact that #LiFePo #batteries are a HUGE #fire #risk but #300Wh is NOT a lot of #power. Maybe enough for an #electric #wheelchair to last an hour at most of use? How is that fair or equitable to the person that relies on one for mobility. There's going to be some huge lawsuits over this. #SouthwestAirlines #FlySWA #ADA #MobilityScooter #battery

Southwest To Enforce New Policy On Battery-Powered Wheelchairs Starting Sept. 25

A look at new restrictions for traveling with electric wheelchairs on Southwest Airlines.

So many questionable choices, but the size and placement of the battery is the worst.

Imagine catching 100lbs of lifepo directly in your lower spine in a 30mph head-on. That poor rear rack...

@pimentoad I use one atop a 10m #spiderbeam running on a totally over the top #LiFePO solar setup passed up by 15m usb cable. Not impressed by the range I get & a Station G2 is what I next want to put up. Solar powering the #T3S3 was a challenge. Used the T3S3 to use the store & forward function & it being small to go atop of a thin pole. The project details: https://meshtastic.discourse.group/t/solar-24-7-store-forward-pole-node-using-off-the-shelf-components-test/14956 but they closed the website... #Jackery setups shown absolutely do not work at all !!! #meshtastic #SolarNode
Solar 24/7 store & forward pole node using off-the-shelf components: test

Store & forward solar node on telescopic 9 m pole, a series of test builds. Aim: 24/7 operation testing using off-the-shelf components making it easy to implement. This build relies on the Jackery Explorer 100 Plus battery pack but had issues when plugging the USB C male connector from the solar panel directly into one of the USB C ports of the battery, as intended by the manufacturer, because the panel inexplicably drains the battery flat when there is no sun shining e.g. when indoors bein...

One day later and the discharge test is nearing it's end. EVE LF280K are nominally 280 Ah. The tester says 286 Ah now and the cell voltages are still at 3.100 volts +- 4 mV. This looks really good! #LiFePO
On our own behalf: We are looking for a supplier of #LiFePo battery cells for our projects in #Nepal. However, these would have to be delivered directly to #kathmandu. Therefore, suppliers and dealers from India are also very interesting. Sending the cells by air freight is extremely time-consuming and expensive.
Please let us know if you have any suggestions or contacts.

In eigener Sache: Wir suchen für unsere Projekte in #Nepal einen Lieferanten für #LiFePo - Batteriezellen. Diese müssten allerdings direkt nach #kathmandu geliefert werden. Daher sind auch Lieferanten und Händler aus Indien sehr interessant. Die Zellen per Luftfracht mitzusenden ist extrem aufwändig und teuer.
Bei Vorschlägen oder Kontakten bitte unbedingt melden.

ich glaub, ich hab das grundsätzliche layout meiner batteriepacks mal fertiggetüftelt.
kein plan übersteht die kollision mit der realität, aber liefertermin ist erst morgen, schaumamal.

Is there a high wattage #usbc #usba #charger with multiple different ports that is designed to work on a #lifepo or 12V or 24V #battery i.e. use stored DC solar power, rather than mains input ? #solarpower #pv I am thinking of something like in the images but using #dc input not mains ?

Stellt sich übrigens raus, wenn man dieses #Nitecore #SC2 auf 3,7V stellt, lädt es die Akkus auf ca. 3,35V

Damit kann ich für meine #LiFePo-26650er leben. Besser nur 90% als "zu viel"?

Äh? Okay?

Wenn man schon die Spannung wählen kann, wäre es halt schön gewesen zwischen SINNVOLLEN Werten wählen zu können und diese dann zu erhalten.

3,65V oder 3,4V wären wichtig

"90% voll" ist eine nette Option? Wenn man Akkus schonen will, kann man das ruhig primär verwenden, aber als EINZIGE Option?

Реверс-инжиниринг и ремонт платы зарядного устройства

Волею случая у меня в руках оказались две неисправные платы от зарядного устройства тяговых аккумуляторов LiFePo. Параметры платы вызывают уважение – она выдает в номинале 48 В при токе до 60 А, то есть мощность платы порядка 3 кВт. Плата подключается к однофазной сети 220/230В. Всего в зарядном устройстве стоит несколько таких плат, они все подключаются параллельно и работают на общую нагрузку. Выпускаются варианты таких зарядных устройств с разным числом плат, соответственно, на разный зарядный ток. Например, как на фото ниже — 3 платы, 180 А.
