I'm working on my first "real" battery pack. 400ah 12v pack. All of my experience is with small 5-25ah packs that I have always used a hobby charger to re-charge as they see limited use for a very specific task.
The pack is together after being top balanced. I've got a small Daly bms attached. I'm charging with the AIMS charger that will recommends from current connected.
The aims charges to 14.4 - so I programmed the BMS to 3.6v per cell.
I have the current turned all the way down on the charger (20amp)
At the end of the charge cycle, the unit doesn't ramp down amperage as the voltage slowly rises like I normally see with hobby chargers. It's 20 amps full steam ahead until the first cell hits 3.6 and the BMS cuts it off. Normal?
Thanks for entertaining my stupid questions!
