Good morning,
where can i buy an aftermarket charger (off board) that is the best in terms of power / weight to connect to my fxs to recharge it?
I would need a plug and play charger, which can therefore be purchased ready to use (I'm not very practical in manuallity)
thank you very much

The safest surest bet is to contact your Zero dealer for a Delta Q charger.  About $600 US and just plug and charge at about 1kw.

I've bought an Otten charger for my FXS 2020, it costs 860 euros. Very useful, and charges at 3.3kW my bike from 0 to 100% in 1h45m.

perfect! just what interests me.
Where did you buy it?
did you have to make any changes after buying it?

[Langelot]

I've bought it at  https://www.otten.de/e-mobilitaet/elektromobilitaet.html
Just send them an e-mail.
No change to make after buying it, just plug and play

You can have more details here :

I've just bought the simple charger (I have not changed it) and when you want to charge, you plug it at the anderson plug. Very easy and no problem.

I've got the 3.3kW charger as well (two of them). I contacted Otten but I got a very unfriendly and unprofessional response.
I would recommend buying them at evcomponents/evassemble in china. They're about 480$ there, very good price, but shipping took a long time.

I am using a simple ESP32 to tell the charger what to do. If you want details, the code or anything, just tell me.

thanks everyone for helping me!

I tried to send an email to Otten.

DerKrawallkeks can you tell me which charger model to buy (maybe with the correct URL) so I'm not wrong?

This one. I emailed them just to make sure.
Then you don't have to select anything, just tell them you have a Zero. They sell two versions: automatic, that just charges your Zero, and CAN controlled, where you can set the current yourself, in case you don't want full power:)

I tried to send an email because I don't know what type of battery, Number Of batteries In Series, Nominal Voltage of each battery, ect..

if they don't answer me, can I ask you how to fill out the form to buy the charger?
Sorry for my incompetence..

[Langelot]

Here is the photo of the Otten charger (Otten sent me this photo because I wanted to be sure it was the right plugs).
Just say them it is for an FXS

Does anyone know the following information?
...

Some of that information has to be inferred or an "educated guess". See also Elcon TC HK-H 1800W Charger (on Zero Motorcycles 2013+) thread where the information you're asking about is shown for a ZF13.0 pack from a 2016 DSR, also with text describing how I got to find those values.

There was some other joke reply I just deleted now;  All are welcome to say what they think but if you have nothing nice to say and no time to go over the forum to find helpful advice... 

[DerKrawallkeks]

1) 28S
2) about 30Ah, but 2 in parallel gives 60Ah
3) Farasis

If you buy a TCCharger, most sellers will know all they need to know when you just tell them it's a Zero.
