    DALY separate port BMS not charging

    Yeah, I've ordered a SMART version so I can at least see what it is doing and why. The common port version I'm getting supports a higher charge rate, so hopefully this should also help.

    DALY separate port BMS not charging

    I'd hope the charging FETs didn't burn out with an in-specification charge current, but yeah. Maybe??? It wouldn't even charge at a low SOC, with cells around 3.2v when measured with my DMM, that why I suspected something was up. It is now also not working with anything on the discharge lead...

    48v 8 seat golf cart LiFePo4 conversion: Mistakes were made

A bunch of lead acid batteries were near end-of-life and I had spent waaaayyyy to long watching Will's YouTube channel not to consider LiFePo4...
