    Capacitors and regenerative braking

    This made me understand so much better what's going on and what to look for. Thank you.

    Capacitors and regenerative braking

    Lots of great info everyone. I'm blown away by the responses and the amount of information. My max amp draw is capped to 100A in the programming of the motor controller So there shouldn't be any bursts going on. I'm 155lbs. I was interested in adding super or regular caps because I do a lot...

    Capacitors and regenerative braking

    Lol, sorry for not being very specific. I'm super new to this so I'm doing my best to use the proper terms. Borek is correct. I'm almost done with a digital version of the schematic for you guys. Thanks for helping. This is my first project and I just felt compelled to make my own personal...

    Capacitors and regenerative braking

    Also I don't have a good way of providing a schematic. But I'll work on it.

    Capacitors and regenerative braking

    The motors are 2x 170kv 65amp each, the Vesc (motor controller) is a 200amp 10s. The bms is a 120amp continuous discharge, and the battery is an 18ah and capable of 150amp continuous discharge. I don't need or want my motors maxed out so I chose 50amps each bringing my total power required to...

    Capacitors and regenerative braking

    So I'm interested in adding a bank of capacitors to help reduce the initial load on my batteries when accelerating from a stop but my current set up uses regenerative braking. My electrinics are this order, Motors, VESC, BMS, 10s5p Li-ion pack. If I add capacitors between the bms and vesc to...
