Everything is coated... Not just ic's.. Whole pcb looks very shiny.
If i had a way to zoom in a bit more i could read the markings on the chip.. But this way with a bare eye it is impossible ;s
Nothing for now ... Battery pack is still on my bench.. All cells are balanced.. Not perfectly but in 30mv range as chinese manufacturer promised. As i plan to charge to 4.1v per cell that means at worst case scenario lowest cell would be 4.08v and highest would be 4.11v , thats good enough for...
I finaly got it asembled and working at the moment in my new battery pack.. Doing some basic test and then i will wrap it up and put in my bike.. For now everything looks good.
Im waiting for pack to get fully charged so i can see if it will balance that first group of cells that i purposely...
I think it is 80ma but i will check with the manufacturer. Should be perfectly fine since the battery pack is brand new and balancing starts already at 4v.
Datasheet says
Normal current consumption: ≤1000 uA
Sleep model: ≤100 uA
Hibernate model: ≤1 uA
I think this wont be a problem cause im using my bike whole year , pretty much every day.
Battery is planed to be 16S11P or 16S12P depends on my space in frame. Will use NCR18650PF (so called older...

Found them acidently on alibaba.. Cant wait to get answer...
I am already member of that forum and geting help is no problem on that forum.. Problem is getting all that e bike stuff that i need... Shipping from croatia to serbia is something like 20-25 euros... And shipping from china to serbia is close to free...Which is funny cause croatia is like next...
Done. But that will hardly help... In my country anything related to electric vehicles is very poorly developed... And shipping from some neighbours country near me is more expensive then shipping from china :cry:
Guys i need some advice on this one. All parts needed for my new battery pack are ordered , cells (Panasonic NCR18650PF) will be picked up next week.. The only thing left to get is BMS or something that can manage my balancing as i dont need low voltage cut...Going for 18S7P or at least 16S8P...
