Seeking advice on upgrading home brew EV bike
« on: March 21, 2022, 09:44:09 AM »

Hi,

Years ago I converted a small Honda to EV and it has been working well.  I originally went with lead acid gel cell deep cycle batteries, largely due to the cost but now I want to upgrade to lifepo4 batteries and need some advice.  I'm getting the sense, however, that this forum doesn't really get into the technical details of building your own batteries, etc.  And all I'm finding online is forums for DIY solar or cars.

Does anyone know of forums where people discuss DIY components for EV motorcycles?

Or, if I'm wrong about this forum, which category should I be posting these kinds of technical questions?

Thanks in advance!

@Fred, thanks much for the suggestion.  That does look a little more what I'm looking for, I'll give them a try.
Thanks!
