Howdy all,
Well, for better or worse I have a Chargery 16S BMS for my new LFP pack. Looking at the manual it seems that it puts the charge and discharge relays in series. How does this work? Aren't they just relays and hence bi-directional in nature? I had assumed that I would have to sperate the solar input from my DC buss and run it through the charge relay. But the manual shows putting the charge and discharge in series, which I can't wrap my head around. Relays don't care which direction the power is coming from, they are either open or closed.
Thanks!
