Hey there, I am having a big problem wiring my 4x3s lipos to make a 12s setup. I have the wiring between batteries done, but the bms is giving me problems. I’ve attached a diagram of my wiring, but forgot an antispark key between the charging port and the volt meter.
I fully charged all 3s batteries to 12.6 (4.2v/cell) before wiring, and now they are at the voltages at the left in the diagram. They have never been discharged and haven’t even been hooked up to anything that would discharge them. I am at a completely loss as to how that would happen, but here we are.
Hmm… That still wouldn’t drain it like that would it? I will take off the negative pin and see what happens. The voltage is the same even without anything plugged in though
Oh hey! I probably should have looked up the actual wiring diagram for it. What are the odds this thing is blown at this point? I can guess the lipos are dead, but what about the bms?
Got it. There a p-. I figured it would go that way since I’m bypassing discharge. I wouldn’t imagine doing that would fry the bms would it? What do you think about all that?
The ESC will take care of over-discharge shutdown, assuming you’re using an ESC that does that, like VESC, and that it’s been set up with the correct voltages in the setup.
Hi, since this topic is already opened I also have similar question. Can this diagram also be used to bypass the discharge on BMS? (cannot find the origin/source of this picture but it is from here)
