Guess this was a giant waste of time then...


I think it's an idea who's time will come, it's a neat unit, almost an electric diff it's so compact and I'm seeing plenty of MGs on the road so they should soon be plentiful and cheap at the breakers. Perhaps it will take off when we all come out of ...

Thanks, yes I actually took the info of the part from him, very great blog. And Greg is also aware of the part I have. I just have to figure out how to reduce this Pushrod.

The shelf will be fine; the screwdriver will simply roll off and impale itself in one of Greg's batteries

Hi Greg,
Would you have any dimensions for the cell hold down bolt holes?
Cheers

Would something like this work?

I'm guessing the OP has a cable driven mechanical speedo rather than an electronic one?

An Arduino with a stepper motor should work. The speed could be a problem, as you need up to approx. 3000 rpm.


This place has a stepper motor that should do;

A lot of breakers seem to see packaging as a cheap way of getting rid of rubbish they would otherwise have to pay for some one to take away, I guess you were unlucky and ordered just after bin day

Brattitude sent me one of his boards to try on an early zombie and while the D1 was better it still wasn't great.

Personally, the fewer boxes the better but I have struggled with poor comms so do see the benefit of a more robust communication system.

Before I apply any power can someone please confirm this mini main board is the right way up on the adapter board? I've assumed the text direction should match the adapter board but we all know what assumptions lead to.

Oh we're looking! Your thread is undoubtedly one of the most useful on here - certainly to other EV novices like me and also I'm sure to others with limited engineering / spannering experience. Keep up the good work

but I don't know what any of that 12K, 18K, or 24K British Thermal Units even means, nor do I want to learn how to speak British

I don't seem to be able to get past this page;

Updated side input port is now on Grabcad, the M20x1.5 thread prints a little lose on one of my slicers and a little tight on the other (Flashforge and Cura) . The small overhangs and threaded holes all print OK without support for me but YMMV. Let me know how you get on.

Yes, it's designed to work with the Damien's design of posts. I'm printing a confirmation over the weekend and if it's all OK I'll release it next week.

Here's an earlier version showing the location.

I'm working on an alternative design, still at the testing stage but expect it to be finished by this time next week, just need to adjust the position of the LH inlet:

You are checking the overflow plug not looking for it coming out of the fill plug?
