Title: New Elcon HK-J chargers. Suitable for the Zero?
Post by: Lecram on November 28, 2016, 02:18:23 AM

I found these new versions of the Elcon Lithium battery chargers. These seem to be great for the Zero, but I cannot determine if this will work with the Zero.
Any idea if you see the specs?
3.3kW

6.6kW

Nice find, but how did you connect these to Elcon?

The specs certainly look compatible. If it's programmable and can talk CAN-BUS, someone should surely be on top of customizing this for the Zero.

Ah, I found them, both featuring CAN-BUS connectivity. I think this is a "go" item. Well, I think someone is already working on it, if I heard through the grapevine correctly.

Very interesting, i think it will fit perfectly in the "gas tank".

After "electric conversions" '  information ( seller elcon in Sacramento ), the new elcon 3.3 kw ' cost is $750.00

It work only via can bus connection second per second.

I dont know if we can connect it to the bms. I dont have the background for that.

For the people having this background, what do you think about that?

Thanks.!

I read on this forum that a guy bought one for his scooter, he wrote this:

"Bought one for my scooter and it works really fine, normally they are CANBUS-controlled but they made a special one for me with a 2 wire on-off control."
