How To: Installing the Exway Aux Pack (Detailed Technical Breakdown)
In today's video, we look at how to install the Exway Aux Pack onto the Atlas Pro. The Aux Pack adds an additional 12s6p battery to the already existing 12s4p in the main board, effectively doubling the range, at minimum.
To install the Aux Pack, you need the pack itself, the lid for the Atlas Pro, the rachet strap, and the cable. These should all come in the package when you buy the Aux Pack. Inside the Aux Pack, you'll fid 72 Lishen 2170LA cells (my guess on the LA part). Either way, they're 4000mah Lishens, that match the cells inside the Atlas Pro.
During this video, I take a bunch of voltage measurements at different points in the board to figure out how the system worked, and it was fairly straightforward, with most of the complex stuff happening between the BMS in the board, and the BMS in the Aux Pack. It's not really easy to see what's happening, so I just have to hope it works properly (it sometimes doesn't work perfectly).
