Four years ago I bulit a Jr Dragster for Grandson. I used Milwaukee M28 tool batteries. Two packs of six in parallel. The two packs are in series for a total of 56V to controller. This ran consistent for 4 years.
I want to step up to next class and am looking at Milwaukee M18 9ah batteries. 6 batteries in series will give 108 Volts. I am thinking of 2 or 3 packs in parallel.
My question is is it feasible to put 6 tool packs in series?
Actually the first car was sponsored so I hope to get sponsor to buy these batteries.
This concept makes it easy and simple. The use of the battery packs eliminates a BMS system and with multiple batteries can always have freshly charged batteries. Just unplug and snap in fresh batteries. The turn around time at local track is very short.
