Dual Battery
Harness		 Trying to decide on diodes for each pack in a parallel connection.

75A 600V stud blocking diode
Works, but drops each pack voltage by .7-.8v.

I tried soldering to the threaded ends together but it just didn't work! So, I used ring ends.
Next I tried 4 of these Ideal Diodes - ID80V2
(Specs/info as purchased from www.re-voltage.eu)

90V 30A (75A peak) @ 15A no heatsink so 2 stacked for each battery should be plenty even if the bike must be run on just one battery.

I put these together in a similar way to my last harness connector. It worked pretty good and I like my new 10awg noodle wire (much easier to work with). This is a GREAT diode! Very low voltage drop! It's a keeper.
 
Battery Bag

Burned a hole in the bag for power wire exit and currently the charge port dangles out the zipper end.

Bench test

A 4 200w light bulb array puts about 220w load on a 48v battery that tapers down to 210w as the battery discharges.

Both batteries each hit 625 and 650wh (90% of rating) without tripping the BMS, where I figured that was enough of a test for me and pulled the plug.

These work great to keep the wind out!
