Title: zero DS 2011 original battery capacity?
Post by: stanelie on August 10, 2022, 08:38:54 PM

Hello.
Does anyone know the original battery capacity of the Zero DS 2011? I've found this PDF that is supposed to be about the cells in my pack, but I am not so sure. It says "2900 mah, 40A discharge". This seems optimistic to me.

The battery pack is 27P14S.

Thanks!

Thanks.

Those values look like a straight translation of the Molicel capacity :
2.9 AH * 27P = 78.3 AH
78.3 AH * 56V = 4.4 KWh

Any suggestions for a comparable capacity/density? Aside from the Nissan Leaf modules?
