There are 90 lithium iron phosphate batteries wired in series. Each battery is roughly 3.2V which gives a total of 300 Volts. This took about a day and a half. With all the wiring preparation for the BMS, probably about a week. We covered each terminal with duct tape so we wouldn't accidentally short a battery or shock ourselves. Yea, we played it safe.
A close up shot of a terminal. The wire is connecting the bottom layer to the top. The large red wire is high gauge rated for the large amount of current and voltage, while the skinny orange wires are connected to each battery node to read voltage for the BMS, which is not yet connected to the white inserts.
Jordan admiring the awesome power and thankful he wasn't shocked.
Another shot of the wired batteries. Two layers, 90 batteries, 300V, ready to light the tires!
