LiGo Battery
Details:
Grin's modular LiGo battery was born in response to the massive transportation restrictions placed on larger
lithium e-bike packs. Batteries under 100 watt-hours are largely exempted from the dangerous goods shipping
restrictions and are even allowed aboard passenger aircraft with your carry-on luggage when disconnected
and powered off.
Connecting LiGo Battery Modules:
Each battery module has two pairs of +/ - leads on
them, which are terminated in Anderson
Powerpoles. That allows you to string any number
of packs together in parallel, with two connectors
left open. One connects to the controller and the
other could run lights or act as a charging port.
Turning on a LiGo Battery:
For each battery, press and hold the button until
the first LED goes green, then immediately
release the button.
○ The green LEDs light up all the way and
show the battery’s current charge level.
○ Then, one LED will show a green
“heartbeat” pulse for approximately 20
minutes to confirm that the battery is on.
Turning off a LiGo Battery:
Press and hold the button until the first LED goes
red, then immediately release the button.
○ The battery should be turned off for
shipping, airline travel, or extended
storage.
Charging LiGo Batteries:
Connect the charger to one of the open sets of
Anderson connectors, and to 100V-240V supply.
○ Green LEDs on batteries will flash while
charging, then turn off when charging is
complete.
○ Battery(s) can remain connected to
controller while charging; use the extra
open connector as the charge port.
The battery may be connected to a computer or phone via bluetooth pairing to check battery usage history,
adjust BMS settings, and upgrade the LiGo firmware. Contact Grin Technologies for information about the
necessary software to connect your device.
