I want to make sure this is correct with you all before wiring this up.
I plan to wire this to a 2x 6S Lipo’s. Then I don’t have to use my Massive Balance charger anymore.
As @mmaner stated BC0 goes to the main negative. Then each next one goes to the following positive. The red goes to the main positive.
Lemme pull up the print but only focus on the balance lead wiring
Disregard all the numbers, you do this one by ‘feel’
The black goes to the pack negative and the red goes to pack positive, the remaining 11 wires go on the series connections between the 12 cells in the order they show up on the connector
Same difference, there isn’t a significant chance in the way they are charged, just the nominal and storage voltage but a bypass BMS has nothing to do with that anyways
Especially on higher capacity systems the c rating is lowered so any specifics of charge current are drowned out by the power supplied, as long as you don’t surpass that 4.2V hard cap and it gets balanced every few cycles its all good
0 is pack negative.
Pack negative is on pgroup 1.
0 is also the negative on pgroup 1.
1 is the positive on pgroup 1.
2 is the positive on pgroup 2, all the way to 12 is the positive on pgroup 12, which is also pack positive.
Since you have almost full control of the charging parameters with the smart BMS, I’m tempted to think you can use these BMS’s with any similar type of battery, as ling as you set up the min/max voltages and other settings correctly for that battery type. someone prove me wrong is this is incorrect
