I recently ordered 32x 280Ah cells from 18650 battery store and will more than likely order another 64 once this first set works out. My question is about top balancing. I've seen alot of varying views on this topic on this forum and on Andy's and other YT channels. I intend to have my batteries configured as a 2P16S configuration with a QUCC 250A BMS (160ma balance current) and will be using an external balancer from Neey....using their 4A 4th gen model.
I'm wondering what's the latest guidance on top balancing. Is it still recommended to setup each cell in parallel and use an external power supply, or given a 4A active balancer, can I simply set up my 32 cells into a battery and let the BMS and balancer do the top balancing for me?
Thanks
Henderson.
