That's correct, but you may not forget that amps go down significantly as soon as you approach end of charge. You start with let's say 10A and end up with 1A before charger stops charging. Normally I double time of charging time calculated or at least add 50%. So let's say you have a 20Ah battery and can charge with 10A, it would need 2h. But you should expect 3h. At least this is my experience.knighty said:charging 10amp hours at 10amps = 1 hour
sacko said:Which is what I had originally intended to use, but doesn't really balance the cells in anyway. Im unsure how necessary it is to balance charge though, could you bulk charge and use the LVC/HVC boards, then once a week/fortnight do a balance charge?
dnmun said:a 72V charger has a final voltage of about 88V. the output current can be measured to see how much over 10A it is. the charger will not be pushing the full 10A at the final voltage since the current flow drops as the voltage of the pack climbs up to the final voltage of the charger.
chroot said:Seriously, I just followed Methods, He abused LiPo battery down to 3v which is often out of balance and all he was bulk charging thru the HVC module to bring back to 4.2v. He never balancing his LiPo pack for years and he mentioned that he decide to check his LiPo balance. WOW they are within 10mv! :lol:
That's what I am doing same foot step as what Methods is doing his products perform as supposed be.
