Very interesting and informative video, thank you. I'm a 72 year old broken down worn out old man but like these type of videos. I watched one on 3 wheel electric bikes and if I can get into better condition I'd buy one!! Thank you again for the video. Subscribed!!
This blew my mind, so compact 52v , 20Ah. Why was your video not easy to see on TH-cam because I have searched many times on building of triangle battery for my ebike conversion. Am glad I found this. Thanks a lot
Okay, I'm putting all my faith into this comment.🤞 Hey guys! I truly appreciate the content you've been putting out here on TH-cam. It has helped me a lot. I actually learned to 3D CAD battery cases from your videos about Onshape, so a huge, huge thanks! I'm Solomon from Rwanda, and I have an e-bike project currently ongoing. Rwanda is known as the country of a thousand hills, and my love for cycling has quite literally been weighed down by gravity. So, I've ventured into building e-bikes with the goal of providing affordable electric bikes not just for myself but also for others who need them. E-bikes here typically cost over $1,000, which is almost 1.5 million Rwandan francs - far above what most people can afford. My goal is to produce a mid-drive e-bike that costs no more than $250 (without the battery). I'm also working on affordable batteries, not just for the bikes I will be building but also for other e-bike builders looking to convert their bikes. So far, I've designed a frame in CAD (Onshape), and I've had the prototype mid-drive frame welded from steel. It's very robust, and I've been testing it since May 2024, with the motor, controller, and a battery mounted on it. It works great, except for the battery. I'd be happy to share more details, and I hope this piques your interest enough to warrant a full story. I'd love to share my unique experience of what building e-bikes in Africa looks like for the average person. As for your 4k subscriber mark, I reckon you'll hit your target in less than five days. If I'm right, please do me a favor: pick my comment and support my work here in Rwanda. You'll not only be helping me, but you'll also be impacting thousands of lives in the long run. (That being said, I'm not exactly sure what I need more from you guys - your advice and mentorship, or perhaps some 2170 battery cells for power/performance benchmarking.) Thanks for considering my request, regardless!😁😇😊
Wow, that sounds amazing. How would you like it? Perhaps a short video presentation of my project or maybe a 1 on 1 online session? Whatever it is you guyz prefer, I'm up for it.😊
That new 52v 20ah triangle is really sweet. Makes me want to do a new build around that battery!! Love the one I bought from you guys in spring for my BBSHD Rocky Mountain Blizzard!!
I'm at 90% done on my ebike project with your new slim pack it's pretty awesome got the new Bluetooth bms so many feature I don't even understand 90% of what I can do with this beast so far my record is 40km with speed up to 66.1kph you guys made me convert a childhood dream downhill bike I could not afford back then to the ultimate downhill/trail/comuter machine I get stopped everywhere with tons of question about the build I spammed you with question for weeks before bitting the bullet and ordering with quick answer I could not be happier even got upgraded to the new version it's slick and powerful been researching for over a year and no one offer this quality built battery my next winter project will definitely have another of your battery
I will use some of your innovative ideas to implement into my battery build here in NZ. I’m liking the battery voltage display idea. Keep up the great videos. Cheers guys
Awesome fresh content! I’m currently building 16S 9P 18650 battery pack out of FAKE CELLS! I am scared I’ll mess up on my real pack so i’m building a mock up battery! What i need is HELP AND THIS TH-cam CHANNEL IS HELPING! Thank you for creating fresh helpful content!
I am so surprised your channel does not have more subs than this considering all much needed info for every DIY'er. Thank you for putting up the free files on the triangle case ! Most people would have tried to mooch a few bucks out of every person and try and get whatever they can . Keep up the great work guys and 10k is just around the corner !
Damn I saw this video and thought no way he just said 4k subscribers. Watching this as a repair tech, I can say this is definitely some good work. I’m currently working on a jetson bolt pro, adding a 48v 1500w motor. Definitely need a better battery than what I have now. Great work again!
Hey man, I stumbled across your channel while trying to learn a thing or two about batteries for a problem I have, and I was hoping maybe you or one of your knowledgeable viewers could help me out. (Please excuse me if my English isn't perfect.) I have a Shark Wandvac 2.0 vacuum cleaner without a battery. It originally comes with a 14.4-volt Li-Ion battery, but sadly, where I'm from, you can't buy any replacement batteries for it. The vacuum only has two connectors for the battery, so I asked myself if it would be possible to get a simple 4S1P 14.4V battery pack and connect it to the vacuum cleaner. However, none of the batteries I could find have a BMS built in (apparently, these things are quite necessary to prevent issues like blowing up, so I thought it would be better to have one of those). Now my question is: Is it possible to get one of those battery packs and just solder it to the vacuum, and I'll be good to go? Or do I have to fear my vacuum blowing up on me while using or charging it? I sadly don’t know if the original battery has a BMS (is that even possible with only two connectors?). If not, I'd guess that the necessary protection circuits are built into the vacuum itself and the charger? I hope what I typed out is somewhat comprehensible, and I would be really thankful for a response. Thank you so much in advance!
Thanks so much guys for this excellent e bike battery share. I am trying to replicate this design; unfortunately, don't know how to design a custom made pre-cut nickel. Do you mind sharing the nickel pre-cut files?
The company is on Alibaba called "Wellgo" , they are the go to place that's where we get them. A basic sketch and tell them the cell size and cell spacing (in this case 22.75mm spacing and 21.4mm cells). They can help you out !
I'm in the UK - I was wondering if you sell those nickel strips plates as I've been thinking about building a 72v 40-60 ah 5000w battery pack with a 150 bms. My aim is to build something over time that might be capable of 170 miles of range which is the total miles from my partner of London to Brighton on sea a seaside town in west Sussex here in the UK. Also would it be possible for you to print me a battery case if I sent you a template If so how much in pounds sterling would it cost thank you for putting this video up it has helped me with my confidence in possibly building my first battery 😊
good job but not the best.. the best is again triangle but as small as possible and as thin as possible for race bike frame. cells should be the different orientation.
@@gokhanceterez1043 That's not an electric bike at all. Can you share with us the better design of a battery that you're talking about , would love to see.
You guys need more subscribers. This is premium work and premium content.
Appreciate you Paul ☺️
i agree
Love seeing you do your builds, didn't realise you guys have a TH-cam channel now!
Thank you so much!! 😊
Very nice. I hope more designs come up with a way lock the battery on the bike and remove it easily like most ebikes batteries on the market.
Goals ! Thanks for watching 🙏😁

If you can do a short video presentation upload the link to TH-cam send it over to us to watch 😁 That would be awesome !
Ok, I'm on It!🎉
Congrats on reaching 3.99k subscribers by the way. Guess I predicted right😂.
Keep us posted !! 😊
can you do an LTO battery back to make 52v for ebike battery because i did not see any one teaching how to make it yet
This is one of the tidiest builds I've come across, great job! I'm heading to the website to check out the files!
Would love to make a 2nd battery for my Lectric 3.0. Always wanted a setup to charge while riding on the main and secondary battery from solar.
That new 52v 20ah triangle is really sweet. Makes me want to do a new build around that battery!!
Love the one I bought from you guys in spring for my BBSHD Rocky Mountain Blizzard!!
Thank you so much ! 😊

Nice project guys, I've thought about making my own battery many times but first I need to get the right tools to do it. Great video
Good spot welder , good soldering iron , good solder , and take your time. Nice and slow. You can do it 😊
Great Video! I was meaning to upgrade my 48 volt system to 52 and I think I'll give this a try!
Damn I saw this video and thought no way he just said 4k subscribers. Watching this as a repair tech, I can say this is definitely some good work.

Thank you!!
Cant wait to eventually have my 72v battery for the mxus 3k turbo radrunner.
Great video and case Love the size!
Thank you!!! 😊
Thank you, great work !
Nice! Maybe a little thicker gauge on the discharge wires, but still very nice
Love the content guys ! Entering that contest, could use a hub motor for a bomber frame in slowly working on 😅
Do you sell the pre-cut nickel pieces? Did not see them on your website.
Exciting stuff!!
comment for the algorithm.. great work
Thank you!! 🙏

i wonder about heat. if you build a crazy high drain battery on a 3d printed box not sure if will melt

Watch our upcoming video that should come out tomorrow, we show in more detail how to get the pre-cut copper / nickel plates
Nice video! Which app did you use?
Their app is called XiaoXiangElectric , check out our latest Short on it 👌

Get ready for this week's video :D I think you will like it!!
Nice
Thank you! 😊
please do a 60v that's capable of 45amps that could be mounted on a rear rack... like a 20ah battery
Would be cool to make those batteries swappable like any device (tv remote etc) I don't understand electrical stuff so sorry if that's not possible.
Definitely possible just a lot more design time. Hopefully we'll get there one day 😁
I need some high-end cells.
good job but not the best.. the best is again triangle but as small as possible and as thin as possible for race bike frame. cells should be the different orientation.
Can you share more info ? We would love to see !
