SR to ER battery swap DIY project

[TaxmanHog]

I don't see why DC fast charging would change. It bypasses the onboard AC charger(s). I've only ever DC fast charged twice and that was to test the Tesla adapter and the electrify america app.

I don't disagree, simply stating that I'd like to know that all is good and the rates of DC charge are not negatively affected.

Not sure yet what I'm going to do with the old battery yet. I may make a science project out of it.

That's the onboard chargers, and inverter. Now to setup microcontroller / canbus controller to see if I can manage to get these modules running standalone for my camper.

@kdcool with your battery pack ebay purchase, did you also get the onboard charger and inverter? I do see you mentioned that in previous posts, just wanted to be certain. Did you replace all those SR components with their ER ebay replacements? Not sure about others, but I am curious to hear more details. Also more pictures.

@kdcool your efforts has significantly increased our knowledge of what is possible. Thanks!

Yet so many questions ...
The voltages of the two batteries were the same?
The locations of the cooling system were the same?
No fordpass changes to make the entire truck act "normal"?

Regardless, this certainly increases the value of a wrecked truck.

The voltages are different but close enough (~360v vs ~370v) that it doesn’t make a difference. The battery pack housings are the exact same between all 3 packs so yes the coolant and electrical connections are the same.
