    Active stack balancer board dissection

    I was curious about this 4 cell active balancer board. It has 4 transformers so it seems to be a stack balancer transforming the cell voltage back to the overall assembly voltage. Tested a slightly unbalanced 280 ah 4 cell pack and it seems to work, some voltage came down and others went up. So...

    jbd bms 16s 40amp bluetooth chip vltage acuracy

    After my disappointment / frustration with the chargery 16S BMS I am looking into other smart BMS options. To me it all starts with the accuracy of the initial voltage measurement per cell. All other things relevant depend on that. Kind of surprised that not more attention / data is published...
