I have a JK_B1A8S10P (bought to save an old LiFePO4 pack of unknown capacity, probably around 40Ah and 7s so 22.4V).
It's running great so far but being new to JK I have a couple questions that I can't seem to find the answers to in any documentation or forum posts:
1. Is there any way to reset the elapsed time counter in the title bar of the app (the one that says 13H44M50S. More curiosity than necessity, but I wasted rather a lot of time on the test bench and was wondering if there was a way to start the counter from zero.
2. Does the BMS learn real battery capacity and eventually change the "battery capacity" value to match the real one? I've only done one partial cycle so can't tell for now.
3. Is there a way to monitor the cell parameters from a distance? Bluetooth range doesn't even make it to the adjacent room and there doesn't seem to be a pc app. I'm pondering leaving an old phone in the room with the battery and using an app like airdroid to see the numbers on the phone - but surely there's a more elegant solution?
4. At the top of the app I have an entry called "Charg. Plugged: Not Plugged" (right after heating status. Does anyone know what charger it's referring to? The item doesn't change when I charge or discharge the battery.
