Hi,
I'm building a few packs all from Grade A brand new cells from Amy that are very closely matched:
All pack will be top balanced first before use. Then I will mount a 150A Daly BMS on each pack together with the Daly parallel board (except the 2P8S for obvious reasons) for good measure.
Now the question is. As these BMS can't possibly balance these cells over time (and that's actually not why I want to use them) I need an active balancer like the Daligreen. Is there a nice active balancer besides the Daligreen ($120 a piece) I can use? Something with nice price/performance ratio? Any tips?
I gather there won't be any downsides to using a BMS and an active balancer at the same time on the same pack, correct?

Quantity | Configuration | Individual cell capacity | Are these packs connected together in parallel? |
2 pcs | 1P16S | 280Ah | Yes |
1 pcs | 2P8S | 110Ah | No |
7 pcs | 1P8S | 280Ah | Yes |
