In this video, we push over 450 amps through the front terminals on the SOK server rack battery. Some concern has been shared whether this front terminal can handle lots of current being daisy chained through it, and in today's test we find that it has no problem with lots of circumstances.

    0:31 Well, the fire is because there is a thermal runaway Impact of cell chemistry, when the temperature is above 240 degrees for these types of lithium ion phosphate these will catch fire, now such sudden increase of temperature created by this vertical sharp metal rod after striking it on this battery is what causing this fire. The striking is generating temperature above 240 degrees. Another alternative maybe Lithium titanate oxide battery.

    Top balance is not really necessary balance maybe necessary what I mean is just make sure there all the same voltage by Connecting them all in parallel and letting them set for a few hours so you don't need compression to do that, then charge to full and check with a multimeter to make sure there the same if you have adjustable power supply you can Simply put a little bit of energy in the one low cell, but the bms should do the same thing.

  • @codyfisher7798
    @codyfisher7798 Před 20 dny

    You have to have clamp pressure in the middle of the cells as this is where they bulge from the most. You should have one more set right across the middle and it’s a must for safety to add insulation between the cells. Several things wrong with this setup.

  • @MR-ub6sq
    @MR-ub6sq Před měsícem

    - I wouldn't talk about "compression" as the name of the structure you described, but only about preserving the original dimensions. I've noticed that some people think that this kind of threaded rod structure is supposed to PRESS the cells against each other with a certain N force. That is a misconception. the purpose is to make only a structure that WILL RESIST a certain compression directed outward from the cells without letting it change the shape of the cells. If before the cells are put into use, by tightening the threaded rods, inward compression is caused to the cells - it is useless and possibly harmful if it changes the shape of the cells at any point! - I feel that you put the aluminum upper and lower corner pieces too far apart. Now there is a lot of unstabilized space between them for the cutting board to give way to the bulge of the cells. Personally, I would have placed the upper "collar" an inch lower and the lower collar correspondingly an inch higher. If the location of the upper and lower stiffeners were clearly closer to the center of the large side of the cell, it would indeed significantly prevent bulging compared to your current solution. So the cutting boards off and to drill new holes. - Many people who build a battery pack in a similar way also place a sheet of cardboard against the surface of each cell, so that they don't damage each other with a hard surface, with a soft sheet of cardboard protecting between them. - The threaded rod should also be coated with some kind of soft hose to avoid hitting the hard metal and damaging the sides of the cells. It is recommended to place the threaded rods as close as possible to the side of the cells, so that the cells cannot slide sideways under any circumstances.

  • @richardhutchins240
    @richardhutchins240 Před měsícem

    I don’t think the current-sensing shunt-bars are in the proper orientation. Many have the current carrying terminals oriented up/down, you want those oriented left/right. This way, air is drawn up through the precision manganese strips via convection for cooling. Although float current on the battery is small, discharge currents can be high enough to discolor the manganese without proper air-flow. Once discolored (purple-ish), their precision resistance is permanently out of calibration. Also, I’d avoid using metric dies on AWG wire. Metric with metric or awg with awg.

    I have punctured LiPO batteries which are very different many times. I have noticed that leaving the cells shorted with something metallic it makes it worse. If you would have removed the tool it might not have caught fire at all. I feel like leaving the cells shorted allows the current to create more heat than just a plain puncture.
