Hello,
This idea probably has some flaws that make it not suitable for various situations, maybe all situations!
Main contactor requires current. Why not supply this current from a device that draws from highest voltage cell or something?
Issues: isolation, safety, failure modes
eg one mosfet per cell plus a capacitor and inductor or something. boost voltage to contactor and the losses are still there but now the current is doing an additional task
thanks
