Yes, page 25 of the most recent catalog. Farasis has been inquired about availability.

The cell is almost a drop-in replacement. The thickness should not be a problem, there should be enough room for the extra thickness.
Charging itself technically is not a problem. The bike will charge and ride just fine.

The SoC calculation will be wrong. I expect that charging works fine, up to the same full voltage. When discharging, SoC will go down at the normal rate, since the BMS will not know these are larger cells. Therefore we'd reach 0 % while the cells still have capacity left. You might be able to continue riding, but only slowly.

The real "problem" here is that Energica reduces power based on SoC, which is unlucky.
So really it would be necessary to change the BMS parameter (cell capacity).
If this is impossible for some reason, we'd have to resort to changing the current sensor (shunt) to read less current, then the SoC calculation will work again.

They changed from an older generation of Farasis P32 cells to a newer generation of the same cell.
The old cell was rated for 4,2 V and Energica charged them to 4,15 V (for longevity reasons).
The new cell is rated for 4,3 V and Energica charges them to I believe 4,25 V.

This is where the extra energy comes from. This must be configured in the BMS at least.
The BMS is built by Lithium Balance. There is a free version of their software available for checking, but I believe one would need the 1500 $ paid version of their software to do configuration changes.

I heard that on facebook a guy (I believe he's located in ukraine) has swapped his battery cells for the newer cells. Maybe that's a wrong info, I am not sure. But if that's true, then he might have had the same challenge.

It works outdoor just fine:)
But yea, technically the mt30 connector has no seal.
I love it though, cause it's literally smaller than the cable, very cool connector.

I made it so you can either do wall outlet to bike, charging station to bike, charging station to outlet (for my other moped or something else), and naturally it can be used as a regular extension cable.
Fully modular.
I intend on making a 3 phase version now, but I had to go with a molex mini-fit plus he's, cause I need 5 pins.

I did ride at around 0°C battery temp and it rides just fine.
Power is reduced significantly.

Below 10°C charging does become really, at 0°C charging is only 1 kW I think, so barely charging at all.

Hello Aaron,

it's nice you're excitced, but there is just so much wrong here, I will not bother to explain everything.

Here is some info (and opinion):
- The BMS is the s-BMS made by Lithium Balance
- The config software is s-BMS PRO: 100640.99 for about 1500 $ (here's the manual, see for yourself https://lithiumbalance.com/wp-content/uploads/LiBAL-s-BMS-PRO%E2%84%A2.pdf)
- all BMS slaves are connected in a daisy-chain, electrically they're all meant to be (and are!) in series
- don't "wire anything in parallel" unless you really mean to. It is generally avoided in HV batteries to parallel any strings
- I'd love to see the cell replacement happen, but it's way way harder than you imagine right now. You'll have to find cells that fit in C-rate, capacity, physically, and in terms of contacting. Then you'll have to design this new package and build it, which requires dangerous steps, and the end result must be flawless, since it is a high power battery pack.

From my experience in prototype HV battery pack development, I think you're most likely looking at best case 3-6 month project (full time, if you're an experienced engineer).

Keep us updated if you go for it!

Hello,
you should find the electrical diagram easily, it's available on the internet.
Your Killswitch problem is caused by the "seat switch" I think. That's a switch that detects that the seat is closed, otherwise it won't go into drive mode.

That's my numbers come from my 2021 non-RS Eva Ribelle with the Cascadia/Rinehart controller. No Corsa clienti.
Interesting..
On a 2021 Ego RS (I believe also with Cascadia/Rinehart controller, not 100 % sure though) I am seeing 120+ kW as well.
But I haven't ridden this bike enough to be able to say anything about different SoC.

Ah yes, you are correct.
The oil of the pre-EMCE motor is only circulated through the motor and never to any radiator, so I didn't really count that (even though it's an important design feature).
I read somewhere that on early bikes (might only have been the race bikes) the oil was actually cooled by a radiator (or indirectly with a heat exchanger to the water loop, idk). But they found that's not even needed so it was made into a closed system.
