Jan 11 at 10:50 comment added Russell McMahon @Maple THanks. I had a quick look. Will try to have a closer one soon.
Jan 10 at 19:53 comment added Maple @RussellMcMahon I've posted the final circuit here, in case you are still interested.
Dec 14, 2023 at 7:09 comment added Maple @RussellMcMahon Thanks, I will. In the meantime I am experimenting with a circuit of my own design you can see here. Basically implementation of option B above
Dec 14, 2023 at 6:54 comment added Russell McMahon @Maple I said I'd come back and answer, but never managed to. This seems eminently answerable. I am again highly time bound, but should be less so 7 days from now (if I assume that Christmas week will not add to the demands)(which it of course will). Ping me at some stage after that if still interested in an answer that should meet your needs. .

Oct 2, 2023 at 3:05 comment added Maple @RussellMcMahon I am not sure I can agree with that. The problem of lithium batteries disconnecting themselves is well known and is not specific to wheelchairs. Here is a quote from Onewheel manual: "Never attempt to ride down a long or steep hill with a freshly charged Onewheel. Loss of control or damage to your Onewheel may occur." Pretty much any high power device needs a way to dissipate braking power, even unexpected examples like industrial robots. This is what this question is really about, and 4k views in 3 days shows an interest in the solution.
Oct 2, 2023 at 0:23 comment added Russell McMahon @Maple This question never ended up integrating a clear overview of what it was"all about" in the question proper, and the new one just referes back to this one. It is VERY hard for a reader to get a proper idea of what you really want and why. eg wheelchairs get a peripheral mention in paragraph 2. The new question may go the same way as the old without a clear succinct up front overall description. Maybe not, but ... .
Oct 1, 2023 at 18:59 comment added Maple @RussellMcMahon following your suggestion I've created a new question more focused on specific requirements and actual design. I also accepted Jasen's answer as complete solution, even though yours and Davide's answers were closer to what I am planning to do.

Sep 19, 2023 at 10:11 comment added Russell McMahon @Maple - Did you get a satisfactory answer? I think that the real requirement was not initially clear to most or all respondents (including me). I think I now have a reasonably good idea of what you are trying to achieve, and why. IF you feel that your requirement has not yet been well addressed we could see how we can progress the matter. While it is normally strongly preferred that a question is modified to suit new input and that a duplicate question is NOT generated, that MAY be better in this case. I can explain why. If done the first step would be formulating a complete question.

Li-ion, not lithium (not rechargeable)
