I only had a quick peruse over some of the information, which i would at a guess might be somewhat out of date? Not really; the fundamentals of cell chemistry haven’t changed to any significant extent. While the BQ78PL116 is perhaps an extreme example (used when battery reliability is paramount and...

The latter is likely because of the seemingly not-well-known fact that unbalanced discharge can be as damaging as unbalanced charge . I’m a little rusty on the nitty-gritty as I last worked on thes...

[De-lurking after a long absence] This is a subject I can be semi-authoritative in as I have designed and built an 18650-based 12v battery pack with in-built BMS for industrial use: P1081872.JPG Early revision under test (hand-built) DSCN0372.JPG First machine-assembled batch These were designed as ...
