Power Turns Off When Driving - A lot

The battery would turn off when pulling higher currents. If I was easy on the throttle, I could get it to stay on.


Testing the cells showed that they were within spec.

I decided to disassemble the battery and test every cell. They appear to be fine. Capacity tests results were good.

When disassembling the battery, I noticed a wire with exposed copper. I assumed I hit it with the razor blade when taking it apart but it may have pre-existed.


Ordered a new Smart BMS with Bluetooth which might help diagnose future issues.
