    Default FS: N19 NiMH battery, charger, burn tester

    I bought a new Lithium battery and Venom for my N19 and am selling my best NiMH battery.

    I tested it today with the SS burn tester and got over 61 minutes, Meter showed 15.5Ah burned.

    The LVC on my scooter and burn tester are set to 20VDC. It will get a few minutes less if you are cutting off before then. I am attaching a graph of the burn test with 5 minute readings.

    The battery was new in August, 2011 and has been well cared for.

    I would like $400 for the battery, charger and a spare lid with the LVC.
    Also selling my SS burn tester for $75.

    Shipping from 28409.

    Hard to read, but that is the timer I added to the burn tester. It reads 1hr, 1min, 46 seconds

    I forgot to specify this in the ad, but I would prefer to sell the burn tester with the battery. If someone wants the battery without the tester, I will then sell it by itself.
    Sorry for any confusion.

    It might be 'old tech', but it still works great and has good burn time.
    They were $650 new without the charger?

    The only reason I'm not just keeping it is that the head weight required for the LiFe battery has to be removed when I swap between the two battery types. I guess I could just get rid of most of the screws and it would be easier to swap.

    Honestly, the pack should burn test around 60 minutes new so my price is based on this.

    The burn testers are 1.5 Ohm so they draw 16 amps at nominal 24V. Actual current, of course, drops during the burn test due to voltage.

    24V nominal, 16 amps is 384 Watts.
    The SS page ( http://www.silent-submersion.com/Pro...per/Viper.html ) shows the NiMH battery being 492 Watt/H with actual being 375-425.
    The 61 minutes I measured at 384W is about 390 W/h, right in the middle of the expected power when new.

    Where did your 90 minute number come from? That would be 576 W/h.
