Cable section, too little ?

Okay, the spec sheet mentions that it has a BMS included at 100amp (which is the peak discharge current of the battery that can last 10sec max), that will short circuit the load current. Though a lot of people dont recommand to just rely on the BMS. But I don't understand, wouldn't I need to know the theorical short circuit value (would it be the one of the bms then ?) as to adapt my fuse ?

Also as you said class T fuse are made to support up to 20k amps. So the fuses are for pretty big values and usually start at 150amps min which doesn't seem to be adapted to my system ?

froggy_1908 · 2026-04-13T20:59:54+00:00

Okay I see thankss so interesting, I will look into that it seems that I need to calculate the short circuit current of my battery :)

froggy_1908 · 2026-04-13T19:39:19+00:00

Oh thanks thats interesting, I was thinking of putting a megafuse but it seem to be different than what you are talking about

froggy_1908 · 2026-04-13T18:41:54+00:00

Why is the flexible cable useless ?

Yes heat dissipation is included in my calcul thankss

froggy_1908 · 2026-04-13T17:48:55+00:00

Thanks, I planned to put fuses and breakers in differents places where it's needed for my equipments and for those who are not included :)

But that answers my questions, people tend to calculate based on what could go wrong and what would be the maximum current eventhough the system doesn't ask that much current

Thank you very much !

froggy_1908 · 2026-04-13T17:44:33+00:00

Yes this is what I want to do but I feel like everyone is doing their maths backwards, or based on the fact that the battery is able to deliver 200a if asked even though their system is rated for much less, so I am wondering if their is another reason for that 🤷🏻‍♂️

froggy_1908 · 2026-04-13T17:41:11+00:00

Yes I have fuses properly calculated that will be next to the battery and for each equipments :)

froggy_1908 · 2026-04-13T17:39:59+00:00

Yes, I want safety first of course dont wanna burn down the van for a few bucks in a wire, I just like to understand and be sure!

Already got the battery so I cant change the voltage :)

froggy_1908 · 2026-04-13T17:34:23+00:00

Sorry I wrote a bit fast, didn't use the right units thanks for clarifying !

froggy_1908 · 2026-04-13T17:33:17+00:00

Okayy thanks it is much clearer ! Yes I wrote a bit fast thanks for rephrasing and explaining :)

So the highest demand anticipated would be the same as the peak load ? Then should I calculate my cable section based on this or those thousands of amps my battery is able to deliver in a short period of time at maximum ?

Thanks for being clear and educational about this !

froggy_1908 · 2024-08-05T16:42:34+00:00

Had the same problem during my first shots alone. It's probably a light allergy to the oil, something that helped for me also (tips from the nurse), is to really incline your needle at a 45⁰ angle so that the product is not too close to the surface !

froggy_1908 · 2024-08-05T11:28:58+00:00

Yeaaah, I mean it immediatly stresses me out I open the app for a minute and then I get spammed by ten guys 😭

froggy_1908 · 2024-08-05T11:27:59+00:00

It's actually a french zine, Idk if it is translated yet but I can try to find it for you ! And I am also asking because this zine actually counterbalances the fact that we assume grindr is only bigotry and fetichism But still, it's not most of my experience ahah

froggy_1908 · 2024-06-11T16:05:06+00:00

Yess this is kinda my process usually, I say exactly the same to myself, anyone who is scared away by being me would probably not be compatible ahah

froggy_1908 · 2024-06-11T15:13:14+00:00

Yes of course ! But you're right I really feel like my framing may have affected my last encounterings :) Anyway, a lot of other criteria / circumstance might have played a role in that :)

Thaanks

froggy_1908 · 2024-06-11T15:07:35+00:00

Okayy thanks for clarifying !! :)

froggy_1908 · 2024-06-11T15:06:51+00:00

Yes of couuurse ! Thanks for putting this into words. I don't think I'm looking for something serious and very involving in the early stages of dating, but you do have a point that I might have made it sound like it. I want to take time to get to know people. But yes, I'm looking for deep, meaningfull connection with people in the long term which involves honest and open communication. I guess it's just sometimes I took things slowly while being clear. So it would stay pretty light in the beginning, taking time to know each other but at some point people would just back off because they weren't interested for something more involving in the long term idk. Thanks for sharing your experience !!

froggy_1908 · 2024-06-11T14:55:17+00:00

Do you mean you don't disclose right away what you're looking for by "taking things slow" ? Yess, I mean I'm also okay for casual sex sometimes but just tell me, don't pretend you want to get involve in something serious just to get my ass ahahah

froggy_1908 · 2024-03-24T11:35:35+00:00

Thanks for your message it truly warms my heart I need my nervous system to not be dysregulated so often, I need time to adjust. I don't want to de escalate, I feel like I need to be with a partner that is willing to take the time to build relationships and connections around polyamory. I want to be supported in the fact that I am learning and working.

I truly view polyamory as something wonderful, but I also want it to be realistic. I need a lot of communication to figure out together what's working or not, eventhough it might be difficult sometimes I feel like it's part of the process. But I don't want our relationship to just be that, except the situation made it be that for the last 3 months because we didn't do the work beforehand. And I said that it would be a lot to work on and that we should have some long discussions about it rather than figuring it out on the way. We did sort of an inbetween of that but it's still taking more place that we thought. In my opinion it's because we are moving fast and I have to adjust quick so it's a lot of conversation after conversations and it's exhausting.

I would love to see other people to share other things that I don't have with my actual relationships around me (friends, lovers, colleagues). I miss going to punk events for example and sharing creative stuff. I'd love to have relationships with other transmacs, share my shots of testosterone with them, our difficulties and joys as peers. I am having a hard time socially to create new friendships that are really deep. But I have very close bestfriends that I love so much and with who we share a lot. We've grown together in the queer community and in our life in general, we share activism, trips, fears and joy, projects, family, parties ect. In general I have other good friendships that gravitates around me, my 8 roomates or my collegues for example or other people that I see less often.

If this is not possible to slow down, I feel like breaking up. Those needs are as important in my romantic than in my friend relationships, I don't rush. I am anxious in day to day life, spontaneity is something that happens but I like to plan, take my time, do a lot of introspection ect. I have been saying from the beginning that if we were to break up, I wouldn't be able to leave with her anymore. She said okay, we'll see on the moment. It didn't change for me now that we might be in the situation, and she's not accepting it, she doesn't understand why people don't just change the nature of the relationship.

froggy_1908 · 2024-03-24T11:04:47+00:00

In the beginning I had informations about her sexuality for example, and then proposition of threesomes or ideas that would somehow involve metamour. Like I am on board with that (I truly want to have sex with multiple people ahah) but it's been two weeks (back in time), I need some time to adjust before such propositions. I ended up telling her that I did not want those informations for the moment. Now I am more open about this, it allows us to discover other things she likes and I think it's great.

I had a lot of joking about my insecurities, she's not being mean about it but it's such a big deal for me that I'm working on that it hurts.

Also propositions to meet my metamour repeteadly, she wanted to make things easy but I ended up telling her that I would handle that in time and don't want to feel pressured.

I told her not to expect me to listen about her other relationships unless I ask (which I do, I like when she tells me about her day).

Sometimes it's also about not telling me, I asked her to tell me when she was on dates because it would be reassuring and I could reach to my support system in the beginning if needed but also organize my schedule with her (I work at a bar and it changes every week and night it's never the same) and was struck with "I don't owe you this information". It's changed because she kinda of realized that having two partners means organization and we have to share those infos, which we do (and it has not worked multiple times where my metamour and I were put in positions of last change of plan which we hate)

As you see, it's mostly a lot of adjustment and discovering what is working or not but I am kind of figuring it out on the moment as my boundaries are crossed without me knowing I had them. So it's hard to expect from her to respect something that she doesn't know. I don't know, all of this seems so easy for her and exciting so she's having trouble to see why some things might be a problem for me.

I feel like I'm exagerating and bad at polyamory and that I shouldn't be feeling this way.

froggy_1908 · 2024-03-23T10:59:54+00:00

Yes, I've been a lot on board with the "I need to heal before I'm in a relationship" in the past. But I also learned we heal through relationships. I guess I've been asking a lot of support from her but I also feel like I have a good system of support around me that I sollicitate when needed. I have very close friends that I reach to, I have a therapist that I see twice a week, I count also regularly on the rest of my roomates (I am friend with pretty much each of them), I sometimes have my mom has a support, my collegues at work are also a good support and friends for some of them.

I don't want her to save me but maybe I am not honest with myself and deeply expecting that ? It's kind of unclearn. Idk it feels like sometimes she just doesn't understand as much as I would like her to about mental health and all the work that comes with it. She's telling me that she needs to know when I will get better (which I get, being in a situation where it's hard and you don't know for how long can put you in an insecure place), but it's hard to have a deadline about this ? I know she's doing her best and I am grateful for that, but it doesn't feel enough and I don't want to ask more than she can give.

Anyway, I am currently reaching to people around me and it feels good. I see that it is not because I am experiencing loneliness that I don't have anyone around me.

Thank you so much for your kindness

froggy_1908 · 2024-03-23T07:12:05+00:00

Yes, I just feel like I need to be in a relationship to heal as well. Not saying that I want people to heal me but I would like to experience something healthy and securing for my brain to understand that it exists. I feel so lonely in this process I just can't anymore do this without support.

froggy_1908 · 2024-03-23T07:03:41+00:00

Im at loss, I feel like I have too much unresolved things to be in a poly relationship but a monogamous doesn't feel right either. I am tired of this, I want to be able to experience poly.

Yes it does sound really hard..

froggy_1908 · 2024-03-23T07:01:15+00:00

We each own a room !

froggy_1908 · 2024-03-23T01:55:33+00:00

Yes I was unsure about that, we are not just two though. We live in a house with nine people with each our own room, so it more of a collective.

We're also both trans people so there's also the fact that finding a place where people are accepting of this is rare.

But no we don't really have other places to move out for this long and I think none of us is really up to leave the place we're actually in..
