I have 4 Aolithium 100ahr - 4s - that I intend to use in series for a 48V system. Putting the 1st battery on a charger that claimed LiFePo4 profile, I could see from the Aolithium app and Overkill that the BMS was in balance mode after some time but while the battery now shows 100% the cell voltage delta is actually higher @ .177 than when I started charging @ .032. The charger stopped - indicating OFF - apparently the BMS cutout because one cell ht high water mark (Cell Overvolt Alarm)
My expectation was that the BMS would stop charging the cells as they reached 3.65 (BMS setting) and but balance to .015mv (another BMS setting ) while continuing charging the others(?).
Should I try to balance this further? - I have a power supply so could put a steady voltage (value?) on it that would not trigger overvoltage on high cell?

recommendations appreciated....

after charging all 4 to 95% and letting them sit overnight - they are all within 10mv of each other and cell balance is less than .004 on all of them.
