2014 Chevy Volt.
bms is warm.
Not sure if you remember but you have helped me out a lot before.

Yes, but details fade.
Bms will take weeks to balance that much. It needs to drain 8 cells.
Bms uses power from the bottom 16s keeping them low if not balancing. (lcd off)
Charge the first 16 or put a load on the top 8 to help bms catch up…
Sounds good.
Do the settings look good on the BMS? Any sugested changes?
Thanks
Might set the lcd to lowest setting=“always on” to keep it balancing.
Ok Sounds good. I’ll do that.
It may not apply to new versions. At one time, only balanced when lcd on.
I learned something new today.
Don’t try to charge a set of batteries with the set of batteries.
Need some advise. What is the best way to drain 8 cells that are wired in parellel by my BMS to another 8 cells that are both in packs of 12 that are wired in parellel? I have a few RC Lipo chargers that can load those cells and drain them to a storage state. I’m thinking remove the BMS and drain them 4 cells at a time. Any sugestions?
What ever load you can find. One of my favorite is bi-pin lamps. Clip one across each cell you want to drain.
Or up to 3 cells at a time using 12v lamps.
No need to remove bms. Use it to monitor process.
If it’s simpler, wire 4 large 12v lamps in series across all 8 high cells. 1157 work too.
Balance leads should handle 2 amps.
I’m testing a charger with a 1p24s volt pack. It was delta-volts was 240mv last night.
A little help with cell 24.
Thanks for the idea with the lights. I was way over thinking it. It did take a couple of days but I got them much closer. What is a good mv difference to aim for?
20mv is good. But it makes little difference. If battery fully charges with no cell over 4.15, call it good.
The one I pictured the other day is still balancing 24/7.
58mv today.
I recieved the programmer and it looks like a little bolt hitched a ride. Was this on accident or on purpose.
Thanks
Good question. Kind of a mess here.
Sounds like my office
.I have been reading up on the programming and this is what I have.
2008 2 seater
7hp motor. Are these all the same?
21" tires
and 100volt battery system.
I have changed 21 to 255 but haven’t been able to try it out yet.
Any other changes you guys would suggest. I want it to last at least a few years
Mainly flat area but would like to not feel like a target in the forty miles an hour zones.
Looks like my 7hp is only 4100 RPM
Does it overheat when you get over the 4100 RPM.
I noticed the GEM that this got taken out of had a shroud that went around the motor. It looked like it was set up to get more air to it.
Thanks again you guys for your help.
