And I think it takes 96 cells or parallel cell bricks in series to get a nominal 400V.
There are a number of options here. There is also terminology.
Tesla calls 96s 350V (or 360V, don’t remember, doesn’t matter). Max 403V
110s is 400V. (Max 462V)
Model Y 4680 is 92s
So not clear how many in series on each half there will be for Cybertruck. If we knew it would REALLY narrow down the possible number of cells.
1344 would be 2x96x7. However, old v1 density was 81.2Wh/cell. New is supposedly about 89.5Wh. Is only 120kWh. Too small, even if the pack is only 123kWh (I think it is 129kWh (aka 123kWh “usable”) but I definitely could be wrong).
But there are considerations for number of modules and if they are all the same (they were not for Model 3).
And wiring up of the bandoliers. As I recall (would have to go look at the post): In Model Y 4680 they had bandoliers of 69 cells, three bandoliers per module, took sets of three cells at a time from a bandolier, so each module was 9px23s. I guess the cooling snake went down each bandolier (don’t remember, would need to look)?
What is bandolier size here? No idea. Are they going to try to wire similarly to Model Y?
Anyway with a couple clues could probably work it out but you have to go to the posts elsewhere that look at dimensions, etc.
I’m just going to not worry about it until we actually have capacity numbers. I assume the pack will look similar in many respects to Model Y.
It could be 2x6x120. 1440 cells (no idea where 1366 would come from though so this really seems unlikely as a “simple mistake” in quoted cell count). 1440*0.0895 = 128.8kWh
Similar to Y but six thinner modules per pack half. Would be similar width as model Y pack - makes no sense.(Can’t re-use four-module BMS then…)
Each module 6x20. Total length 40 cells (physically it would be longer than this since assuming groupings of 3 cells at a time). I think this is far too long. Bandoliers of 60 cells. Would be 74% longer (2*20/23) than Model Y - probably too long.
Anyway just an example (which is wrong) of considerations. Has to fit, use BMS maybe, have series number divisible by number of modules (assuming identical modules), etc.
