Hi guys,
stumbled upon the forum when I was looking for advice on how to modify my - accidentally, stupidly, wrong click, purchased - Chinese Mebo 43.8V LiFePO4 charger to output 42V for the LiIon packs it was intended to charge.
While I understand that the BMS will protect the cells from overcharging in any case, I would rather spend some time to modify the charger to somewhat hit the 42V mark instead (currently it does 43.1V on idle).
First thing I naturally did was to look for potentiometer on the board.....no such luck.... :?
I'm attaching a few pictures (behold the awesome soldering job) of the output end (V+ and V- outputs and respective cables can be seen on the pictures) in the hope that someone can point me in the right direction to identify the voltage sensing circuit and resistor that does all the magic (I believe I found a LM324 on the back which might be just the guy...)
Thanks a bunch !!
