100 W
Having a problem with my 48 volt 20 amp battery. Its composed of 18650 cells. I had a problem when i took the battery out in may as one group of 16 cells were down to 0 volts. I traced the fault to the bms. I replaced the BMS and the 16 cells, and now at best im getting about 700 watts or about 14 amps before it cuts out. The battery when fully charged will read anywhere from 54-56 volts but that dissapates to about 53 volts once i start using it. When the battery cuts out, its only at about 51.5 volts. It performs great, just wondering why its cutting out so soon...i dont know if the cells are unbalanced...the kind of charger i have is one that will continue to run...green light when fully charged and yellow when charging...this will cycle on and off...wonder if i should charge it for a couple of days....any ideas??
