Just a thinking.
I own 12 server rack batteries, just 1 year old, still well balanced (cells in batteries and batteries among each other) and therefore there is currently no need for action. Furthermore, the batteries still have a warranty of several years left.
I am wondering the following: What could be done if the cells in a battery are no longer well balanced in a few years and the difference becomes ever larger so that the internal passive balancer is no longer sufficient to "repair" it.
Would it make sense to connect balancing cables in the battery to the cells and attach a plug to the housing to access it from the outside. You could then connect an active balancer to this if it will be necessary and remove it again after the "repair".
Current active balancers should not remain permanently activated anyway, as this can have a negative effect.
Has anyone tried this before?
Is this a good idea or a bad idea?
