Hi guys
I have a 20 cell lipo pack that I plan to use. It has no BMS only a 20pin JST-type connector wired to the battery. There is no BMS unit plugged into it and goes from
B20+ ~ B1+
Roughly sketched pic below
Its a long 20 pin connector so my idea is to break it up into smaller JST plugs to use as cell checking and balancing whenever needed. I will manually monitor the cells and main voltage while riding.
I use the Q6 Pro so the largest JST it accepts to do balancing is 6 cells which need a 7 pin plug when including the Negative wire.
If I use 3 or 4 smaller JST plugs...can I wire all 3 connectors Negative pins (The first one on each connector) together ?
If so, can I tap into the packs main Negative and run each JST Neg. from that single wire?
Hope it doesnt sound too confusing!
Thanks
