Tested BMS and Motor Controller

Ok, I tested the safeties on the BMS and the motor controller – all seems to be ok.  I do have some cutouts on the BMS during charging, but I suspect that is because the shielding on the cables are not all they are supposed to be.  I don’t have cutouts on the cable supplied with the BMS, but I do on the stuff I bought from Fry’s (go figure, cheap stuff from Fry’s???  gosh, the mind boggles 😉 ).  For now, I will suffer with occasional communications errors, but I will have to replace the cables sometime (Thanks Davide!).

So tonight, the Moment of Truth.  Will Sparky move?  Stand by.  🙂
