24v Kobalt Powered Sunjoe Mower

Submitted by mistersketchman on Sun, 2020-08-02 01:54

AFAIK, no one else has done this. It is far from an ideal build. I replaced the stock motor from the cheapest cordless Sunjoe mower available with the motor from a Kobalt 24v weedwhacker. Reason is that the Sunjoe mower has a non-swappable battery pack. You'd have to take off the top of the mower to change it out. So, if you didn't finish the lawn on one charge, unlikely, you'd have to wait to recharge to continue.

Current out of Sync

Submitted by CTSchorsch on Sat, 2020-08-01 13:24

Hi all,

i have a problem with my custom PCB and higher currents. I think it is a hardware bug. With higher currents, the battery current, battery voltage and motor current have high ripple. Very often the curent out of sync error is reportet. but not allways

i guess there are too less caps near to the FETs and maybe i need a "global" cap at the battery input. Can someone confirm this ? or is this a more a software problem ?

Custom board: R and L measurement problem!

Submitted by JustClap on Thu, 2020-07-30 10:57

Hello, 

At first let me say that I'm new using VESC, I'm working on an E-Bike project so I built a custom board based on VESC HW 4.8 solution. 

In BLDC mode everything is working fine for me with the default FW 2.18 using BLDC Tool (duty cycle and rpm control, sensorless and using hall sensors...), but when I want to switch on FOC mode and I try to measure R and L, in this process my card disconnect.

VESC4.20 no sign of life

Hi guys i was riding my diy-ebike that has flipsky vesc 4.20. This one

I was doing a 0-max full throttle run.In the middle of the run it suddenly stopped working. I tought temp protection kicked in so i pulled over and waited it to cool down. (Heatsink was hot but not that much.) After letting it cool vesc was not responding to throttle.

A100S

Following on from my A50S I posted a month or so back. I have been working on a slightly larger board for 2-22S at 50A continuous.



This is the A100S, 42x40x20mm (1/3 size of a VESC6). 



So far I have managed to cram quite a lot into the tiny board. Still going through testing prototypes.

150V 300A - Am I missing something?

Hello All,

 

From the beginning of 2020 I am ready to buy 150V 300A controller for my paragliding winch project.

 

Still can't preorder here: http://powervelocity.com/home/60-18f-ebike-sinewavesilent-controller-android-ios-bluetooth-programmable-8kw.html

Very excited to introduce a new product I've been working on for the last few months. And I mean, I don't get easily excited but this one makes me feel good about all the countless hours, sweat and blood spent on development.

I've developed this specifically for the high power controller that I am about to start shipping, but later plan to offer it as a standalone product for any VESC compatible controller out there. A few things need to be worked out and tested before that happens though.

So, here is some basic info on features:
