The commercial batch of Relativities have a problem. In the pictures I posted on the 11 August 2013, you can see that some Relativities are wrapped in plastic. These are from the commercial batch we had made. They have a natural voltage difference averageing around 200mv, which means when the pack is charged to what should be an average of 3.7v per cell, the lowest could be 3.67v and the highest could be 3.87v. This is not good enough. It will be while before we have a solution. Meanwhile, I have removed them all.
I have now changed the brushes in the WarP 11 motor. The motor was fitted 384870 and the speedo reading now is 444158. That is 59,288km driven on the original set of brushes. They won't do much more. I don't want to run the risk of running out somewhere, or, damaging the motor. Some have worn differently, and are different length than others.
