Dendrobatus Azureus<p>It has taken me about 12 minutes to cool down and 18650 battery which was heating up that it was almost too warm to the touch. The battery was in the charger which clearly doesn't properly communicate with the BMS, creating a fairly dangerous situation<br>The battery in someone else's hand could have spontaneously combusted into flames igniting the charger and then the wood of the table it was standing on.<br>I have a habit of standing up, way in the depths of the night, either because I want to go training on my race machines, or because I want to physically feel how warm the batteries are that I'm charging.</p><p>Today I'm very glad that I routinely do this, because the BMS failed, a temperature sensor is obviously absent in the charger, and the chemicals would have potentially created a runaway situation because the battery was running this hot for at least a couple of hours!</p><p>The 18650 cell delivers the energy that is needed just fine it just cannot charge to 100% anymore</p><p>Of course I have marked the cell, so I can now manually remove it from the charger </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Electronics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/battery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>battery</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/cell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cell</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/battery18650" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>battery18650</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/BMS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BMS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/charger" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>charger</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/temperature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>temperature</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/heat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>heat</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/sensor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sensor</span></a></p>

The economics are different elsewhere. </p><p>We paid just under £1000 to install an <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/EV" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EV</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/charger" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>charger</span></a> in January. It saves us money every time we use it, because we have a time-of-use tariff that costs just 7p/kWh overnight. If we used a <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/GrannyCable" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GrannyCable</span></a> plugged into an outside socket, we'd pay almost four times that much. More than that, we can make sure the car is always charged when we need it, so we don't end up paying 90p/kWh (and wearing the battery prematurely, and having to wait around) at a commercial charger.</p><p>The charger should pay for itself after about 5MWh, which is about 18,000 miles, or about 30,000km.</p>
