I have a XiaoXiang BMS which is basically identical to the one OverkillSolar sells but you're better off paying the small difference for the OKS BMS imo for the warranty.
What happened was I fully charged the battery to 3.65v per cell then reset the Remaining Capacity to full, Then discharged the battery to storage voltage of 3.300v (the voltage it arrived at new at and the voltage at which the parameters view says 39% SOC)and it said 54Ah remaining.
Today I turned on the BMS (having not handled it since then) and I was surprised to see that the Remaining Capacity had reset to the full capacity, even though the battery was sitting at 39% SOC. I don't know of any way to get it back right other than to fully charge the battery and reset it again at full SOC. Big pain.
I also have a very hard time getting it connect to Bluetooth and have to use the "FIX" feature (which usually does not work) so I end up "refreshing" the list over and over and over and over until usually I finally get it listed. Location is on. Sometimes it can take twenty refreshes and or a power down. I checked the connections.
I can't see this behavior as normal and just wanted to run this by before it goes back.
Thanks
