Re: PIP-4048MS inverter

No, I can't recall any problems with a control board, though I faintly remember attempting to trace a few parts of one once. The ...

Re: PIP-4048MS inverter
LCD error code 08 The user manual says that this fault code is "bus voltage too high". Yes, the service manual says to update the firmware, but I don't think this will fix it. I suspect that they don't expect this error to come up, but if it ever does come up consistently, perhaps they can fix it w...

Re: FS 2011 i-MiEV repairable writeoff (*SOLD*)
Ditto, to both the thread and the interest.
I wonder if the repairable writeoff / original owner doesn't want the hassle combination is a viable, low cost but moderate effort path to a used EV? Quite probably, there aren't enough EVs in Australia to make that combination likely.

Re: PIP-4048MS inverter
The first day I tried to charge the battery the dreaded "preamature float" bug raised its head so I downloaded and installed the 73.00b patched firmware... Yes, it seems inconceivable that the charge bugs still exist, until you see one in action. With the patched firmware I am not sure why the PIP ...

Re: Arvio 3.5kWh drop-in-battery-replacement supercapacitor on sale
In order to charge faster than 4 minutes I think I need a cell with heavier terminals. But that just means that these cells, whatever they are, are not designed for 15C operation. There was a claim that the devices inside were capable of charging and discharging in 30 seconds, i.e. 120C. In fact, t...

Re: PIP-4048MS inverter
This circuit, present on only some models (before the fuse protection "feature") merely disconnects the battery negative strap from the rest of the inverter if the processor doesn't cause the opto-coupler (OP2) to be lit, which will turn on the four paralleled MOSFETs (only 1 shown). The circuit mak...

Re: PIP-4048MS inverter
The usual electronics stores: Jaycar, RS Components, element14, mouser, etc.
I'd guess so, but higher current models might have too much leakage (i.e. they might not turn off "hard enough").Would a SSR be ok to use?

Re: PIP-4048MS inverter
"Coulomb's partial schematic trace of the main power supply circuit" is available from the index. The AC start switch carries battery voltage, so you need to be careful with fault currents. A ~1 A 60+VDC fuse would be wise, on the pin 1 side. The switching current is quite low, however. Hence, many ...

Re: Arvio 3.5kWh drop-in-battery-replacement supercapacitor on sale
@Supercaps, the discharge test shows the voltage plummeting at the end, and the charge test shows the voltage springing up at the start.
These are both textbook demonstrations of a battery cell. How can you maintain that they are capacitors?

Re: PIP-4048MS inverter
Attention firmware updaters! Weber and I have updated the patched firmware, both LC and LF versions, from 73.00a to 73.00b. This fixes a problem whereby on older hardware, the inverter would end up with an error (fault code) 90, after 60 days of running time. There has already been one machine stop...

I'm also having problems with charging my batteries fully. I've set the absorb time to 120min. It doesn't stay for 2 hours in absorb. I note that even with timed absorb, absorb mode will be exited if the charge current falls to a particular value. That value is the number of active paralleled machi...
