Hello Ed, i've been following this thread - have a look and let us know what you think ?

Alternativly i'm sure you know you could get in touch with Gareth at Electrofit Zapi and arrange to have it done.

That's a very interesting thread now bookmarked as i have two NG3 chargers on my bench needign tweaking.

Zivan UK do do a lithium profile chip upgrade for the NG3.

When I had my Lifebatt cells the UK dealer authorised Zivan to send me a Lithium profile chip.

Perhpas if you ring Electrofit Zapi (Zivan) and tell them, you are running lifebatt cells they will send you one ;)

Good ideas, retepsnikrep, thank you
I've sent in an Electrofit enquiry form
(are they the main UK Zivan agent ?)
I have 64 18v/5ATurnigys, a 72v. pack
I aim to add 32 more for a 108v. pack
More soon as
