I asked Mr. Ping last summer if he could build a 72v.dc pack for a motorcycle I am building (very slowly!) He replied that he did not have proven kits for sale at that level presently, however.......

I asked the excellent Mr. Ping about using this 36v pack in series for 72v.dc He said best in parallel, (because of main cable gauge, I think?) Does a similar, (lesser?), constraint apply, 24v+36v? (Just my tuppence...

Looking forward to your decision, Derek
I hope to use the cash next month

Hi, guys, thanks for all the effort on specification, much more reliable than my vague guesses (which is why I try to say only things I feel sure of, but which are thus, well, a bit simple) I would be very happy to see the Ping-pack/BMS and charger being put to a proper use I am not sure how much to...
