- 36 cells connected in series with voltage taps on each one
- A thermistor on each cell to measure the temperature
- A mount for the current sense resistor and board
- A fuse to protect the batteries
- Switch to easily turn on/off the stack
- Contactor on + and - connections to be consistent with the car implementation
Fuse
Fuse should be rated to around 15-20A, fast blow. Should probably use the same Cooper-Bussman series as we are using for the actual car. Need to find purchase and get the fuses. Ask Joshua Rong for more details on fuses.
Contactors
- Charge Input +
- Output (Motor Controller) +
- Common GND Side -
- Secondary contactor to emulate the coil sense contactor, coil wired in parallel with main contactor
For Contactors 1,2,3 I am thinking TE EVC 80 contactors or the solar contactors. Need to check prices and find digikey/mouser links
Switch
We should be able to manually turn the battery on or off. Should be rated for at least 20A, probably more for a safety factor. Should also be satisfying to turn on - big switches are nice.
