Internal Fuse Mod 1
$350.00 (1fuse, Orion cable) (lid only)
$450.00 (1fuse, Orion cable)
$500 (1fuse, Orion cable, Thermistors)
Internal Fuse: A15QS400-4 Minimum, A15QS400-QS450, A30QS400-QS450 or A50QS300 are reasonable.
Integral Orion 36S cell tap cable installed. Length can be specified. Can be shielded with (split) flex conduit after shipping. (not shown)
CNC Serialization (inspection date and serial number) in final location.
Coolant slot 25% surface area was milled and has a protective chute on bottom that can be moved in emergency with a marginal amount of force.
Custom threaded busbar devices installed on fuse (underneath electrical tape) for optimal ring terminal surface area usage.
600v EPDM welding cable on outside for extra damage protection on power leads.
Power lead grommet hole increased in size so larger cables can be used on case.
Includes 1x paper copy of battery documentation.

Internal Fuse Mod 2
$275.00 (1 fuse, DB37 cable)(lid only)
$375.00 (1fuse, DB37 cable)
$415.00 (1fuse, DB37 cable, Thermistors)
This is an alternative way to fix Junior Lonestar Packs so they are compliant with the recent rule changes.
Fuse is completely internal. A30QS400-4 fuse is default for Junior EV application.
This one shows the original DB37 female connector connected to a male DB37 terminated to a Orion BMS Cell Tap Cable.
CNC Serialization (inspection date and serial number) in final location.
Coolant slot 25% surface area was milled and has a protective chute on bottom that can be moved in emergency with a marginal amount of force.
All packs that run through our shop now are installed with 6-8 unterminated (shown in image) or Molex terminated thermistor cables so battery pack can be thermally monitored now.
This mod does not include price of Orion 36S>>>DB37 cell tap termination labor or Orion cable.

Internal Fuse Radlock Case
$645.00 (1fuse, 1Orion cable)
$800.00 (1fuse, 1Orion CPC-57 cable with thermistors)
The image is a prototype new 2024 case design for the Junior Dragster 150v Packs. Prototype made with some left over case parts.
New design features Radlock connectors on sides of case that allows for stress-fee assembly of either straight or right angle rotate-able motor cables. This design gets rid of 1ft of power lead cables.
2 fuses are shown. An A15QS400-4 and a A30QS400-4 for size comparison. Cables will connect to fuse with custom threaded nickle plated busbars for optimal surface area usage and bolt tension.
CPC-57 connector system (not shown) allows for stress free and reliable connecting and disconnecting of cell tap cable. ((flex conduit fittings shown).
OD and ID of case are the same.

Radlock/Surlok Connector Upgrade
For those wanting an Internal Fuse Mod on their battery packs it is recommend to considering a Radlock connector upgrade on side(s) of cases. The Radlock connector system allows for immediate internal threaded connection inside battery reducing internal wiring complexity and allows for a right angle compensated motor cable.
They are more "finger safe" than an Anderson plug.
Lower stress to remove and install than an Anderson connection.
