What you see is quite typical actually, especially the bigger the cell capacities get. Imagine now for a sec, if we were using 500AH cells, lot's of room for differential. I dunno if EVE makes 500AH cells... just thinking out loud you might say.
If you check out some of the video's which have Chargery BMS & Active Balancer, the Chargery's Passive Balancer is turned off (the two can conflict unpleasantly as some found out). Now in this situation with a Chargery & Active Balancer, it seems the wiring harness can also be a bugaboo as the Chargery Wire Harness is only 22ga ? so that cannot carry a 5A+ potential. Now Chargery was designed for light EV & E-Bikes originally and they love the use of Balancers in those applications and so they have a wide assortment of Adapter Boards (although the connectors are a bit greek to me)

IF the cells we have been buying were properly Voltage & Internal Resistance Matched into sets, Active Balancing would be pretty much irrelevant (an expensive timeconsuming process). The cells like the EVE 280's are Grade-A New and fall within the Broad Spectrum specs for their cells BUT they are not properly matched & sorted into identical batches for Volts & IR. Because of that, we do see more variation between the cells in packs.
Used Batteries like the BYD Packs and even EV Batteries (Tesla, GM Volt etc) especially if they are used can benefit from Active Balancing, PROVIDED that the Active Balancer is sized for the task (enough Amps for the Cell sizes being dealt with). 1.5A on a 280AH cell i sslowwwwww versus say 6A... Timeliness is also a big consideration.
