Storage of my diy electric car Wv golf mk2 Citystromer.

Alternatively, you can use the battery over the winter as a home storage solution! That is what I do on my EV project car!

[@flyingtools]

Absolutely 👍🏻 I will have it as a backup battery to my existing battery if the energy price goes through the roof😉 I have 9 modules to my house so sadly I can not have them in parallel. I also like to have the extra amount of power due to the higher voltage that an extra module will give me. That’s why I whent with the id3 battery from the beginning😉 Thank you so much for your input 👍🏻👍🏻

[@andreasstromberg]

Seriously that's the best idea, use the battery's as the house battery -nothing in the way ​@@flyingtools

[@flyingtools]

@@andreasstromberg yes absolutely, if didn’t already have an even bigger battery to me house😅. For me this will be a down grade if so both in power and kWh. I will only use it as an emergency backup battery.

[@TheChargeShow]

It's a thing of beauty, and can still be used as home battery storage too. Genius. Well done. Love it.

[@blackeyes18ro]

@@flyingtoolsadd one more inverter :)

[@Grejarlite]

Det låter som en bra strategi! Både när det gäller laddningen och möjligheten att bevara pärlan i det skicket! 😃👍 Bra tips! 👌

it also depends on the chemistry cause the LFP are a complete different thing. Those have nominal 3,2 V and not the 3,6 to 3,7 V But at 3,2V a LFP cell is far below the 30% SOC . My 14 kWh LFP cell battery (51,2 V nominal) running under a 1 kW load aka 20 A is around 25% but just 0,1 V difference can make a huge difference or dropping the load to 10A only cause the voltage will increase.

[@flyingtools]

I made that very clear at 3:25 in the video. “Look at the specifications of the cells YOU are using”

[@RichardSteigmann]

I would remove the 12 volt battery for winter. Then the system always stays off. I would charge the HV battery to 60%. Then you can leave the car for 6 months without any problems 👍 With 50% you are currently the best off electrochemically 👍👍😎

Finns det planer att använda batterier v2g eller liknade i framtiden, eller blir det för omständlig process ?

[@flyingtools]

Hej ja absolut. En CCS kabel är redan beställd.😉 Men mest för att kunna ladda snabbare då jag redan har ett både större och kraftfullare batteri till villan. Tack för din fråga👍🏻☺️

[@perandersnilsson1974]

@@flyingtools Tack för svaret. Låt oss vara med på din resa och gärna berätta hur du kommer fram till din lösning. Jag har en MG4 med V2L, man kanske ställer den några månader på sommaren och cyklar till jobbet istället så man kunde göra någon smart lösning.

I'm building the battery for my leaf drivetrain conversion, how is it going without battery cooling?

[@flyingtools]

Hi. Great to hear. The cooling is not an issue here at least. Modules heats up around 6° after 10 kWh of dc charging. Normal charging no problem whatsoever, but I guess that more than one fast charging cycle at “40kw” is the limit during one trip.

Isn't to early ? Why not enjoying it?

[@flyingtools]

I personally don’t enjoy the weather, and the salt is soon here on the road. But if it is a really nice and dry day I will definitely take a ride, its only to connect the battery negative and of I go😉

[@ktacatalin3715]

@@flyingtools Anyhow...enjoy as much as possible. I do have a 2021 electric hyundai kona (204 hp) but yours is way more fun...

[@kierank01]

Technically, it's not an ignition ;)

[@flyingtools]

Thanks for letting me know 😅
