    At what point do you sell your car?

    I drove a 2009 Volvo S40 T5 for 12 years, got it with 25 000km on the clock, think it has 160 000 when I sold it for R15 000. Just cause everything started going wrong in the last 2 months, would have cost around R40 000 to fix everything. Got a hilux after that, now has 30 000km on the clock...

    LIFEPO4 Battery discussion thread

    WTF has that to do with typed? I have seen an el cheapo 200A battery that had a max draw of 80A due to the BMS it had. I don''t give a F what it trips out on, just informing one has to make sure if is says 200A on the battery also make sure the BMS can do 200A, that's all.

    LIFEPO4 Battery discussion thread

    The BMS is the issue, not the actual battery.... if the 200A battery has the same BMS in as the 100A battery then you will have the same problem. The BMS is what limits the AMP draw, the battery size has nothing to do with it. Usually a bigger battery should have a bigger/better BMS in to handle...
