Hey mate you sound like you know what your talking about !can you please help me? ive brought a lifepo4 battery with a jbd bms, i charge my batterys with a pannel and alternator it apears during charging my bms is momenterily shuting down my batterys im thinking maybe to balance cells? while its not a problem for my pannels it is for my alternator as its creating spikes and playing havic with my electrics can you shed any light on this for me and a remedy? thankyouFor how long?
Does it have a contactor, or is it still FET based?
While it would seem to be logical, these are still relatively inexpensive BMSs made in China. I would not assume that the BMS is a scaled up version of the last. It may have less surge tolerance due to the higher continuous rating.
If the overkillsolar app works with your JBD (it seems to on most if not all), the newest version of the app allows for 2nd and 3rd level protection settings. You might investigate that.
