I made up some quick templates to crank out new cooling fins that look a lot more professional then Rev 0.
...I also made up new end plates and end bars...
...and replaced the end cables with .25" all thread...
So in short I remade everything but the cells from before. :) The result is a module design that I am finally happy with and can easily made with pretty basic hand tools cheap and quickly. I'd say once the cells were ready (tested, destickered and 2 hole punched) I took me about 4-8 hours to assemble 250 cells into modules.
I dry fit the modules in the back of the Miata so I can start on the mounting brackets.
3 modules get installed here where the fuel tank used to be and a 4th one get's installed up front where the radiator used to hang.
Next up is the mounting brackets for the modules and installing the BMS. Assuming I don't have to suddenly leave the continent for work again those items shouldn't take too long.
