Generally speaking,
yes, yes it will
. No matter what kind of battery you're charging, if you hook up a 36v battery to a 48v charger and let it charge to completion, you're going to ruin your battery.
Can I charge a 36V battery with a 42V charger?
For example, for a 36V 9 Ah lithium ion battery,
it is recommend to choose a 42V charger with maximum output current 3 Amps or less
. Using smaller charging current to charge a lithium ion battery will take longer charging time, but it will be better for battery.
How do I know what voltage my ebike battery is?
How many watts is an electric bike charger?
How much electricity does it take to charge a battery? Depending on the capacity of the battery, it will usually take
500-800 watt hours
(0.4 – 0.8 kilowatt hours) to charge the battery. Assuming a rate of $0.10/kWh, it will cost you 5-8 cents for a charge that will last you 20-80+ miles.
What amp should I charge my eBike battery?
#3 Buy a big ebike battery (20-Ah or more) and charge it at
5-amps
. A big battery solves a lot..they are less delicate and can handle a fast charge. Also with a large enough battery you won't have to worry about charging in the middle of the ride.
Can you run a 48V motor with 36V?
Re: Using a 48v motor with a 36v battery
Running the 48V motor at a lower voltage should not make a great difference to the efficiency of the motor but you will only produce 75% of the power and maximum rpm on 36V compared to 48V.
Can a 36V controller handle 48V?
usually the 48V conversion on a 36V controller will work
but you can change the input power resistors too if needed.
Can you put 48V batteries in a 36V ebike?
Most 36V controllers will support a 48V pack
, but the LVC will still be set for a 36V pack, so you'll need to monitor pack voltage and not let it get too low. You can verify this by opening the controller and checking the caps and fets. If it has 63V main caps it should be fine.
How many volts should a 36V battery have?
Voltage: most ebike kits are rated for a specific voltage range. A typical 36v ebike needs a battery that delivers power between
42v to 30v
. A 36v pack, at 42v is fully 100% charged and holding as much energy as it can and at 30v it should shut down and stop giving power before causing permanent damage..
What voltage should a 36V battery be charged at?
A 36 volt battery is a 10 cell battery. That means at full charge, you should be at
42 volts
.
What voltage is a 36V battery charger?
The peak charging voltage for Gel batteries is 2.3 to 2.36 volts per cell, and for a 36 volt charger this works out to
41.4 to 42.5 volts
, which is lower than a wet or AGM type battery needs for a full charge.
How low can a 48V battery go?
48V version of S06S controller (and 24V/36V version too for that matter) cuts off at
40V nominal
(=45V resting pack voltage 13s2p NCR18650pf). At 13 cells, that's 3.1V-3.5V/cell depending on which value you use.
How do I know if my ebike battery is good?
E-bike batteries can be tested by
measuring their voltage, current, and resistance
. To take precise measurements, a multimeter should be used. The multimeter needs to be connected to the battery. Once the multimeter is connected, the user will need to choose the function they wish to perform and proceed with the test.
How do you test a 36 volt battery?
Is 36V ebike enough?
If you weigh light, a 36V e-bike battery might be able to provide enough capacity to climb up
. But one, you will feel more resistance, two, you will run out of battery more quickly, and three, you will strain the battery affecting its lifetime and efficiency.
What is the best wattage for an electric bike?
Just pedaling along at a typical cruising speed for a non-sporting rider (about 9 mph) takes about 30 watts, about the same energy as normal walking. Go up to 20 mph, and thus rapidly increasing aerodynamic loads, and
220 watts
is needed—more than most non-athletes can sustain.
How long will 48V 20Ah battery last?
In theory, a bike with two riders, loading 150 kg, 48V 20Ah battery pack could run
40 Km
, and a bike with one rider could run 70 km with a smaller accelerator. Accelerator pedal size has a big effect on mileage. The 48V12A battery, theoretically, could run 40-50 kilometers with 300 pounds of cargo.
Is a lower amp charger better?
We recommend higher amperage
to ensure cooler power supply and optimal charge time. If you get a charger with amperage less than your original power supply, you risk overheating your charger, burning it and in many case your device will stop functioning and/or charging.
Can I charge a 48v battery with a 12v charger?
However
you can charge 48v with a 12v charger
it will just take a lot longer also the slower you charge your battery the more life you will get out of it charging at a high rate does damage battery faster less life on battery.
How do you charge an eBike battery to 80%?
Get a Light Timer
. We all have better things to do than to sit and watch a battery charge just so we can pull the plug at 80 to 90 percent, so get yourself a light timer and set it for one to two hours. Most batteries will hit 80 percent within this time.
Will a 36v battery power a 48V motor?
So, your 36V 1kW controller will likely be a 28A controller. This means
your 48V motor will not be 1000W on that controller, it will only be 750W
. That means that while the controller won't be overloaded the maximum power output might not be sufficient for your needs.
How can I reduce 48V to 36v?
- Input is 39-55v, output needs to be between 29-44v.
- Current on the wire is 80-120ma.
- It would be great it if this could be done proportionally, or with a constant voltage drop, instead of just regulating to a set output.
Will a 48V motor run on 24v?
Default LVC for all 48V controllers will be 40-42V, so the answer is
no for the stock controller
. However, you can always change the LVC to a lower voltage and the controller will work down to whatever you set it at.
Can I use a 48v controller with a 36v battery?
It depends on the controller. If the controller is 48v and has a low voltage cutout too high for a 36v battery, then you must do something to bypass the cutout.
Some 36v controllers work fine on 48v
. This would solve your problem.
What happens if you put 48v to a 36v motor?
Your 36V controller might not work with a 48V battery.
It might be programmed to fault out and quit when voltage exceeds a preset level
. Low voltage cutoff will be set for a 36V battery, not 48V, so it will not protect your 48V battery.
Can a 24v motor run on 36v?
No you can't use 36 volts on a 24 volt model
, but you may be able to wire it for 24 volts. Not knowing what you are trying to do, but a second T/M plug, wired at 24 volts shouldn't be hard to do. No you can't use 36 volts on a 24 volt model, but you may be able to wire it for 24 volts.
