Title: Charging the enertia faster
Post by: BiggerCharger on March 06, 2015, 01:19:07 PM: I'm finding used non Enertia Plus and don't like the SLOW charging or Small pack size . I've built LFP packs with bms and would like to ad on a larger charger or an extra battery pack. Is there some way to Break in to there wiring and modify . Or where can I find wiring diagram.
I got lots of extra 40ah calbs .

The original Enertia (Classic) used 6 Valence U1-12XP modules, connected in series. The datasheet for these modules recommends a C/2 charge rate, so you can cut the stock charge rate in half.

You can see a cutaway Enertia here:
