    LiPo 120 Cell Battery Management System?

    Is there any BMS currently on the market that could handle large quantities of LiPo? I'm specifically talking about 20 packs of 6S1P LiPo, or a total of 120 cells. I need something that can keep them in balance and also allow for high amperage charge rates. The only system I currently know of...
