Your serial port is way slower than your math conversions you'll be fine. Even with floats. Plus the wideband probably doesnt have a very high update rate anyway. Still, using decimal is way better there Also, roman, its 0-1023, not 1024 BTW

Nah, just shows you the last x amount of seconds. I can add an input so that it stops when you flick a button or something? So flick a switch and it starts, and when you flick it again it stops and shows the last x amount of seconds? The idea was never to do super crazy tuning with it, but being able to do a pull and see a little history would be ace. Looking at a number on the screen when doing a WOT run just isnt feasible if you ask me

I made this. Can send the hex files if useful

haha, my car runs and drives liek a bag of dicks and was way better with factory carbs but it hast he POTENTIAL to be great This was always a temp ECU, as it was broken and we hot glued some components in there and 'dead bug' soldered them to the board to make it work, so we only ever tuned WOT for drag racing... That temp fix is still running today, and we did that 5.5 years ago, so i've been running a BADLY tuned car for 5.5 years because i dont wanna spend time tuning something thats going in the bin anyway i have no pics, but this is dead bug style soldering;

i think there is a small margin of people that would actually care? if it runs and drives well, then joe bloggs wont give a fuck? if its someone that loves to tinker then as long as its at least well documented and runs some well supported code etc, then i dont think its any different to a micro/mega squirt if someone wants to get the car and pay a man to tune it to squeeze every last ounce of power out, and that man will only work with a link/haltec etc then old mate money bags can pay the extra $$$ to put a link in if he really wants? I think whether or not it has a good tune in it is going to be the real deciding factor there..... nobody going to pay max dollars for a car with a shit tune, regardless of how flash the ECU

dug it out a few days ago. Sitting literally next to me on my desk hahaha edit: RusEFI has e-throttle support

lookin good mate

someone should photoshop that front hub in different colours and see how it looks... stands out like a sore thumb, but might just be the price to pay?

mint, looks ace

It could be working, it could not be. Best way to check is to monitor the charge light and see if it goes on and off etc, or if it stays off. Though, you have a BMS with a separate port for charging right? and it charges when you first plug it in right? In which case the BMS should be working fine. Thje charge port isnt connected to the battery pack unless the BMS connects it, so if it charges, the BMS should be working... What BMS did you get? Because the one i found that looks like the one you have doesnt actually have a balance feature, so might be worth checking if your has it or not. Initial charge is a cunt, especially with mismatched cells, as i assume you didnt check capacity or internal resistance of each cell before building a pack right? If you have access to a lab power supply, just charge each bank individually by setting the power supply to 4.2V with a 1A current limit or something like that, and let them all charge individually and 'top balance' the pack that way. Once they are all charged and balanced, they should be fine. Or If you're worried, get a Daly BMS. They have fantastic reviews and have a balance feature. You can also get one of these: active balancers which will start transferring charge between neighbouring cells if the difference is more than 0.1V, which might be nice to have. Plenty of reviews online that say they dont work, but plenty that say they do. I have 2 at home, and both work flawlessly.

Sweet, that will just be a current limited power supply, so when the BMS disconnects the charger, the current stops flowing so the light will go green. Wait a bit for the BMS to pull one of the cells down, and it will (should) turn the charge back on and the light will go red again. If it does that, then you're in business.

so a BMS like that will only have a shunt of 55mA or something teeny like that. So to discharge a cell thats over volt will take a long ass time, and you need it on charge for hours. Especially first time to balance them all. Make sure its kinda working though by making sure you have power on the output, and the BMS is actually working, or else it will not protect the cells when charging and you might kill a few. Though if any of the cells measure too low it wont turn on, so it could be working without the output being on. When you say it switched off, was that the charger saying it was done? or did the BMS cut it off? or you turned it off? What is the charger? Just a current limited power supply? or something more fancy? other option is just using a smaller single cell charger to charge each set of cells of 4.2V and when charged do the next and so forth to 'top balance' all the cells in the pack, and then hope for the best after that.

So, how was it!?

it was actually every second to last Wednesday of the month

are you going full weirdo and capacity test each cell, then check the self discharge rate before building a pack? or just assuming they are all similar enough and give zero fucks?

Im pretty sure the yellow jackson trailer was 100kg heavier at the end of that run, just from dust! Glad i didnt have to clean it

Oh man! What a weekend! What a weekend!!! Thanks all for being lovely chaps and thanks shadow garage dudes for sorting this stuff out! So much greatness and such beautiful roads!!

My location for the 3% of the drive where we have service See my real-time location on Maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/htLr4WQab5MdkH566

double penetration post

Google has a cool feature of sharing location... It allows me to share a link which will be active for 72 hours that shows where i am. I will start this on the morning of the ride and ask one of the big wigs to chuck it in the first post or something. Alternatively, if you PM me with your gmail address, (chuck in a full name and maybe phone number if you like) i will add you to my contacts and will share my live location with you directly, and a little pop up will just appear on google maps to show where i am( as long as i have cell coverage etc). You can also just add me, neilvangeffen at gmail.com and request my location via google maps Would be handy if the other support cars could do this also if they have an android device? Be able to check where we all are? I for one would love to see 40 odd dots on my map all weekend TBH... How To

kinda. Mine says no rain, but only 24 degree highs (9 at night)

i have a 5 seater and no full time passengers

I've had my hand up since May as support vehicle, so a little late now to try change my plans.... Happy to take a passenger, as long as they like vengaboys
