With the lithium and TC charger the OBC is useless and if left connected may cause problems with the controller or something (I.e. charger interlock faults). I’d take this opportunity to throw the paperweight that is the OBC in the garbage! |

Re: Starting My Lithium Conversion
Jkerle - Aren't you afraid someone will plugin a factory charger to the charge port?

I don't think the factory charger would even turn on if you plugged it in. The charger wouldn't sense any voltage from the battery and wouldn't turn on. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk |

Re: Starting My Lithium Conversion
This is what I installed in place of the stock charger port. It’s great, I just use a regular extension cord to charge it.

Re: Starting My Lithium Conversion
My charger came in last night. I ordered it 6/12. It shipped on 6/8 from China. I'm not sure what takes them so long. I started on the battery pack last night. I will post pictures later today. It's enclosure can be built from most materials that you can find at the big orange store.

Re: Starting My Lithium Conversion
Battery pack has been assembled. It is probably over engineered, but I had the 1/8" 1x1 aluminum angle and no way to bend sheet metal. So I picked up 23 12x12x1/8" aluminum sheet. I only needed to make straight cuts and I have a little band saw that I used for that. You could use a circular saw and a carbide tipped blade.
You can pick it up by the top and it barely flexes. I didn't get as far as I wanted tonight, but maybe tomorrow I can start wiring. |
