Re: [electricboats] LifePo4 build questions

The charger gives me individual cell numbers as I charge so I will have those and the milliamperes or amp hours replaced per cell.

Re: [electricboats] LifePo4 build questions

Good to hear . . . congratulations!

Before you recharge, you may want to check/compare individual cell voltages.  This can give you an idea of how closely-matched the cells are capacity-wise.

(Now looking at the 'TR16 Coulometer' you're using for my own setup.)

Re: [electricboats] LifePo4 build questions

I was final able to get out today. I tested the battery and everything worked great. Because I was also testing the gas motor I went to the river, not the electric only lake but I fished with the trolling motor for 5 hours an used approx. 8 amp hours. 😀. 

I installed the shunt meter at the front of the boat. 

I’ll confirm the amount used when I recharge  

Thank you all again for your help

Re: [electricboats] Flange coupler for Thunderstruct gear reduction

Thank you Darin!  I did consider the chain flexible coupler, but the existing 4" shaft adapter has a nice, beefy looking rubber flexible coupler from the old transmission.  Figure might as well try to reuse it and looking at videos how to remove a coupler, with my luck I'll damage the seal :)

Hi Anton, 

I'm sure you've already considered this, but just in case: 

The chain coupler is a 'flexible' coupler, so if you ever have any small alignment issues as I did after changing motor mounts and again later after replacing the prop strut, you may find this flexibility useful.  Good luck!

Hello

I was told that the couplers were sourced from Graingers.

Check their catalog.

Thank you so much for the very useful reply!  Would you mind mentioning where do you get the actual 4"x1" driver couplers?  I've looked all over Amazon and internet and seems not easy to find a coupler that can take the torsion force.  Or is it easy to manufacture on a lathe?
