Greetings.
I bought a 48 V Panasonic battery from Battery Hookup thinking to carry it as a backup for my Lectric Ebike which also has a 48 V battery. The Panasonic is well built and all I need to do is add a 13S BMS which Battery Hookup provided instructions for.
So my quandry is this...Can I add a 5.5mm bullet connector to the Panasonic battery and just plug into the charging port or must I hard wire into the ebike controller. Will the Panasonic push current into the ebike battery as the bike battery drains? Do I need to add a blocking diode to prevent the ebike battery from discharging into the Panasonic?
I have performed the charge while running test and the bike does run with the charger plugged it.
I did consider dismantling the Panasonic to build a 3 or 4S pack to power an inverter into which I could plug the ebike charger but the Panasonic battery is so well built I would hate to destroy it.
