With this seup, I used the Dewalt chargers. It only tkes 1 hour as I had 4 chargers and 2extra batteries. THe chargers do a bit of balancing, but not well. I can get 20 miles if I pedal a bit on 6 batteries.

The photos and design info is in a thread called ‘All Answer about the Dewalt 36V battery and B M S —’, endless-sphere /forums /viewtopic.php ?f=14&t=2339&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=30
The materials: plywood (1/8″ ?), polyetheylene slab cut to make a battery connector, straps, fuses, case. Nothing scavenged from DeWalt flashlights.
max speed so far was 29mph. I have not tried to run a series or parrallel config yet. One battery at a time works fine for me. I usually bring a spare dewalt battery when riding. I just swap them out when the battery gets low.
So you are saying that 1 Dewalt DC9360 2.3 amp hour battery will drive your bike 15 miles and it has a Wilderness Energy hub motor? I am dumbfounded. Unless you are going down a steep hill for the whole 15 miles!
I wish you would start posting at endless-shpere forums about this as I am sure it will stir up quite a contraversy. In my way of thinking and by doing the math, this should be impossible.
The new electric bike I put together I used one Dewalt 36 volt batttery on a small folding bicycle. When I tested it out it was on a outdoor flat surfaced track. It worked fine.
Are the Nano battery holders/connectors locally available?
I’m going to use 6 x28v Dewalt Nanos on a chained gear 500w 24v kit.
I’m glad I don’t have to take the cases apart.
i love the dewalt set up very cool. could i somehow get the electronic blue print on the battery charger /electroncs speed controllrer/ and the way all the batteries sit in and are connected?. do they all (batteries) dump power at once on one rail or is it plug one in at a time or is it a switch? would be cool if you wired a charger on board with a selector for each battery. good luck nice job
i like the lil wooden holder. to have 2 rows of 3 on the sides of your down tube wouldx lower you center o gravity. its a way cleaner set up than hackin packs an taping cells together for sure, when your paying for the name dewalt, then might as well use the paks to your advantage
what is the amp hours per battery? How long to charge a fully discharged pack? What is the low end voltage cut off and/or does it have a cut off voltage?
Yes go to endless-sphere forums and look in the sub forum ebike photos and videos.
so how long do u charge batteries, do u use same dewalt charger? what range n speed do you like to travel on bike? do you do balancing cells?

Just one dewalt 36 volt battery can last me 15 miles on a charge without pedaling. Why do you need to ride with 6?
Oh? What kind of motor are you using and how fast are you riding? Inquiring minds want to know!!
On my other electric bicycle I am using a wilderness energy 600 watt 20 inch front hub motor. It runs on 36 volts.
I simply swapped the 24 lb lead acid battery with the 2.5lb dewalt battery. runs great and soo much lighter to carry. I got the idea from your video.

and it went 15 miles?
No it was a lifepo4. sorry i got the dewalt and lifepo confused.
Ahhh OK this makes sense! I was like what the heck?
How did you connect the DeWalt to your bike?

Please post more videos !!!!!

very nice;) 5*****
where can i learn to make the pannel the battery connects too or buy them?
What excellent idea, very neat. : )
what is the amp hours per battery? How long to charge a fully discharged pack? What is the low end voltage cut off and/or does it have a cut off voltage?
Have you tried lithium polymer? you can get a 11.1vlt 5000mah for like 30 bucks.
tidy, thats about a grands worth of batteries tho isnt it?
