As a part of our JET-CART PROJECT, which kicked off in June, 2021, we encountered a need for a high-capacity battery (400Wh). As there was no battery of needed parameters on a market, it’s been decided to design, build a couple which we can use for initial testing and also produce on our own.
The project involved following steps:
- Battery design
- Battery rack design and printing
- Cell testing and spot welding
- BMS (Battery Management System) selection and integration
- Battery pack testing
- Power distribution
Whole process got documented in following posts:
