The battery on our Juiced Bikes U500 V3 went bad. We ordered a new one, but decided to take the old one apart to see what we could reuse. The 122ah battery was configured as 13S9P using Samsung 26F 18650 cells (2600mah/5A). Out of the 117 cells, 36 were still good. We repurposed them as a 12V CPAP backup battery using the VRUNEND kit. The parts cost us $100, but we learned a lot!
Here are links to the components:
* voltage converter amzn.to/2K5ACro
* wire amzn.to/2WsiK0y
* BMS amzn.to/2YZqkxj
