Hey everybody,
I currently have an ebike with two battery packs running in series. One 16S and another 8S, for a total of 24S. The cells are 4.15V EIG 20Ah. There is no BMS installed on these packs. Every four cells has a 4-pin JST connector for balancing purposes.
Previous owner of the bike would bulk charge with 2x Meanwell 50V supplies in series and then discharge balance with Battery Medic devices.
My question is – leaving these Meanwell series charging unattended will obviously overcharge the cells, correct?
What's the best way to safely charge these packs? Get a 24S BMS and reroute all the balance wires? Somehow find a 24S balance charger?!
Let me know, thanks!
