Hi Bart, Jacob and All,? Jacob has it correct on Leaf modules and how to use them and the c car at low voltage is a heavy current user which Leaf modules don't do well at. But you'll end up paying

I've used Leaf batteries with the CCar before, so I can speak to my
experience with them.
I wouldn't say not to use Leaf batteries at all, but I would say you need
to know about some caveats. The

Hello everyone,
I am the one who bought Bob's Citicar. It is a 3.5hp, 48V, 1976 model (2134). Ideally I would like to restore it to as close to original as possible as most of the originals

Re: AiLi Voltage Ammeter Current Meter
Thanks, I am starting to see the error in my math.
Sounds like this capacity meter is not what I am looking for.
Thanks for the help.

Re: AiLi Voltage Ammeter Current Meter
You don't hage a 2200 amp hour pack. If you have 10 220 amp hour batteries
you have a 60 volt 220 amp hour pack. At c-car current they won't give you
220 amp hours anyway, more like 120 if you are

I just added the AH¡¯s together as the batteries were in series.
I will do some more investigating at

Re: AiLi Voltage Ammeter Current Meter
2200Ah seems pretty unlikely -- that means with 60V you have a 132kWh
battery, larger than Tesla's largest battery pack. Check again?
As for the shunt--you will probably want more than 350A

Corrected a typo in the First Speed section. The F/R contactor is moved (in the direction of the F-N-R switch) not the S/P.
