56v Ego batteries? #1

Open flyingtech opened 4 months ago

What would I need to adapt a 56v battery from my Ego mower?

DavidBertet commented 4 months ago

56v would fry basically everything I used here.

You need to put a step down converter in between, so you end up with the 12-18v that can be used for this project

Thank you.
This is what i'm ordering: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256805491763442.html?spm=a2g0o.cart.0.0.3ea838daQJJufR&mp=1&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa I hope that this will work.

10A with Max 15A might be a tight light while on load. You might want to replace the fuse by a 15A and put it between the battery and converter, or take a bigger buck converter.

I'll check what mine uses with an amperemeter with the kids, but just blocking the wheels I see it going up to 22A. My 30A fuse never tripped.
