| Vehicle | 2000 Peugeot 106 Original factory model with some upgrades, especially Li-Ion batteries and fast charger. | ||||||||
| Motor | Leroy Somer SA 13 Separately Excited DC (11kW nominal, 20kW peak), 127Nm, 72 kg | ||||||||
| Controller | SAGEM 3YXSY3000 120 Volt 200 Amp (IGBT) 400A/600V | ||||||||
| Batteries | 120 Samsung SDI 60Ah, 3.70 Volt, Lithium-Ion Used cells originally from BMW i3 first generation, all tested for internal resistance and capacity, connected in 40s3p config giving total 148V/180Ah (27kWh capacity). Installed also 2kW battery heating system using thin floor heating film from Aliexpress :) Works great! Used BMS from baterioveboxy.cz, planned to use it also to limit the charging current when charging ends. I'm not satisfied with it at all as it is very vulnerable probably due to high EMC noise disturbance coming from DC motor brushes. | ||||||||
| System Voltage | 148 Volts | ||||||||
| Charger | Sagem Y3000 Original 3,2kW charger built in Sagembox + custom built additional fastcharger from Eltek power sources gives 9kW of DC power, 12kW in total. Next additional 9kW enhancement planned. | ||||||||
| Heater | Webasto Thermo top C 5kW gasoline heater. Currently working on approx 2kW electric heating system using 750W/120V PTC module and 2 digital thermostats. Will be updated | ||||||||
| DC/DC Converter | Sagem Y3000 70A (1kW) original converter built in Sagembox. | ||||||||
| Top Speed | 65 MPH (104 KPH) (105kph electronicaly limited, but adjustable) | ||||||||
| Acceleration | not yet measured | ||||||||
| Range | 125 Miles (201 Kilometers) Not yet tested, 125miles (200km) expected. Will be updated | ||||||||
| Watt Hours/Mile | 210 Wh/Mile The consumption was in winter with battery heating ant temps around -5°C approx 17 kWh/100km, in winter it could be around 13 kWh/100km. | ||||||||
| EV Miles |
| ||||||||
| Seating Capacity | 4 | ||||||||
| Curb Weight | 2,050 Pounds (931 Kilograms) With Li-Ion it is 40kg lighter than with NiCads. | ||||||||
| Tires | 165/70 R13 75T, all year. | ||||||||
| Conversion Time | Conversion only in the meaning in change of the battery took me approx 200hours | ||||||||
| Conversion Cost | approx 6000USD | ||||||||
| Vehicle bought in 2016 with 97000km. It was in original state with 20 NiCd SAFTs giving range approx 70-80km in summer. Summing the past 4years, I gained quite much experience with it and apart the fun it gives me for sure experienced also several big troubles explained further. After 10000km driven, 3 SAFT modules died so I have bought another used ones and replaced them. After another approx 12000km another 3 blocks died so I gave up on this chemistry and as we love the car we decided for a Li-Ion upgrade as I'm more familiar with them and had the possibility to buy quite cheap cells in a perfect condition. I have disassembled the batteries in 12/2019 and few months working on it. Unfortunately, after batteries were ready and mounted on the vehicle I also replaced the brushes and managed to fix them in a wrong position which caused motor and Sagembox burned during the first test drive. Fortunately to another guy from Evalbum I managed to buy another motor in pre-restoration state (bad iso state, oil leakage, many many carbon-oil dust in it). I gave it to one guy who deeply cleaned it, did new winding paint in a vacuum chamber and replaced all the ball bearings also with sealings. Before the isolation state was like +-0,5MOhms, now is probably higher than 5,5GOhms, so motor in a great condition. I also managed to repair the burned Sagem box thanks to one guy who has long experience doing it. Therefore the car was dead more than 1 year, almost whole 2020. To be able to drive longer trips I have completed a fast charger using 6 pieces of Eltek Flatpack 48V/1500W power sources connected in 3s2p giving in total 9kW of DC power. This setup makes me able to charge the full capacity of 27kWh in approx 2hours, so like 100km/hour. Batteries seems to be almost not heating themselves during charging/drive due to very low internal resistance and also quite low charging/discharging currents topping maximum of 200Amps. Therefore I decided not to deal with cooling, but this summer will show :) Regarding range, I have not tested it yet fully, but longest trip I made was in conditions of approx -3°C, 70%highway/30% country roads, some battery heating needed, 150km total driven and there was still energy left in the battery. Therefore I'm hoping for summer range to be at least 200km+. | |||||||||
