Matt and I took a fully-charged Electro, satellite radio blaring, on a 12 mile jaunt through Edmonds. Not too far, just enough to ease the batteries in and check how the newly set parameters in the motor controller are working out with the new pack.
In general, things are working well. The float voltage did not appear to drop at all from ~170V (3.27V/cell) during the whole 12 miles. I know the discharge curve is relatively flat, but this is encouraging for range!
As usual, I think my initial battery current limit or voltage limit is too constraining on the Zilla - up hills are sluggish. More tuning required there.
A few more (and longer) trips before I start going to work with this puppy!
