So, I am getting ready to charge my battery for the first time, I selected 10 cells on my charger and pressed start. But it shows this screen (Picture down below). I checked voltage with a volt meter and I am getting 35.2 V as you would expect, but the charger only detects 9 cells. Should I go ahead and charge it or do I need to fix something?
That’s a problem. Go to li-ion monitor mode and check the voltage of each cells.
So, it is displaying 35.28V. I can’t check each cell because I have a BMS and don’t have a balance lead for the charger. When I was making the battery I made sure to check each cell multiple times and every time I made a connection, and they were all at 3.52 V.
Oh then it’s fine. Just force the charger to charge at 10S.

Okay, thanks for the help!
Seems that there is no problem. The “detection” of 9 cells is maybe an educated guess by that charger. So just force the 10 cells charging. Or to make sure, go measure the individual cells. EDIT: Okay, two replies while i was typing… Nevermind…
