I don’t plan to use an aluminum bottom plate, and will just bolt the pack down to the plastic tub. I figure if it was strong enough to hold the 400 lbs of lead acid, it can hold the 100 lbs of LiPO. I am also thinking about placing all of the control relays on the controller cover. Still have some layout and thinking on that. I would like to leave space for a controller upgrade and possibly 7 more modules. With all the parts, the only thing that has shocked me is the weight of the TC Charger. It weighs about the same as my power-drive charger, but is half the size. |

Re: Leaf Battery swap in 2012 Club Car Precedent
What converter are you using? My lights were just hooked up to 16v, so I will need a converter to use them. Right now I will just leave the harness coiled up under the seat. Hopefully the deer won’t be upset if I don’t have turn signals.

I used this converter, ScottyB sells the same one as well.

Re: Leaf Battery swap in 2012 Club Car Precedent
Preliminary BMS layout with roughed in wiring to the fuse blocks. Fuse blocks are screwed down with holes drilled into the top plate and tapped. Top plate secured to the side plate with holes drilled and tapped in the side plate flanges.
Next step, drill and tap mounting holes for main fuse, BMS modules, current sensor. Then drill holes for Anderson SB175 plug, install nutsert. |

Re: Leaf Battery swap in 2012 Club Car Precedent
AG.....I think yours is the first one I've seen that fuses each individual battery cell. What is the purpose of doing that?

Ian said 1 amp is a good size if you want to fuse each tap. Again, not needed. |

I'm patiently waiting (actually......patience is not my best character) for Ian to ship my order. For that matter, my Elcon TC hasn't been shipped yet either. |

The time from order to doorstep is shown in my first post if you are interested. When I looked at Ian’s site today, the lead time dropped from 2 weeks to 1 week. |

Re: Leaf Battery swap in 2012 Club Car Precedent
Drilled and tapped mounting holes for the BMS, main fuse, and current sensor.
Drilled and installed nutserts for the battery disconnect. Drilled holes for the bms taps to feed thru the top plate as well as one for the temperature probe. Installed grommets in all of the holes wires will pass to prevent chaffing and shorting out. Was going to start terminating the BMS wires, but realized my terminal kit with all my ring, spade, butt, etc... connectors was left at the hunting ranch during cleanup weekend so the feeders could be repaired if needed. Well, ordered a new kit, hopefully it will be here Tuesday. |
