You could bypass the discharge on BMS due to your vet high current and just use it for charging. @thisguyhere I think is selling bestech charge only BmS for like $30. Ask him
I mean unless you want to spend a ton of money on a 10s balance Charger. I wouldn’t do that though. A bms is much cleaner and cheaper. Just takes some research and some time to wire everything up.
Also if I’m not mistaken you only need 90 cells for a 10s8p battery:
10 cells in series, 8 parallel sets, 90 cells I think. Someone correct me if I’m wrong.
thx for ur reply,
i think that the way of using it only to charge is the way to go.
ps acually 10 times 8 is 80 cells, so the drive system is powered by 80 cells
there are 20 additional cells (10S2P) for other systems on the board like light and gps systems (just for fun)
btw this could also be used as backup
When you use 20 cells for different stuff do not make a 10s2p. you would have to use buck converters which lowers the Efficiency. imo i would Analyse what voltage i use for my different stuff and make a pack that compares to it
Hmm, i looked at this.
To me it seems to be a bit under powered.
it can “handle” a discharge of 120A …
but running this at maximum capacity … mmmh
actually i think if i only charge with bms and use additional safety features … this could work as good as this method for less money …
what do you guys think ?
