LiFePo4 Mid Balancing | Yep, it's a thing now

[@tcnmiccc]

great work very inspiring thank you

[@BusedAsNZ]

Thanks

[@jonfinderup2437]

I'm very confident you've cracked it. Well done

[@BusedAsNZ]

Cheers. Im sure it would be better done properly by load testing each cell but this should get me much closer than before

[@brad4908]

Watching for the part 2 with great interest.

[@BusedAsNZ]

Haha cheers, but sorry you might have to sit through some charging tests first :)

[@mikeritchie9081]

Looking good, will be very interested to see how many AH you get out of the balanced pack. (divxmaster)

[@BusedAsNZ]

Yeah mate. With some of those cells looking so weak its still not likely to be great, but hopefully will be better

[@mikeritchie9081]

@@BusedAsNZ well fingers crossed. Also I'm looking at putting some 2A pico fuses on my balance wires (will be just cell voltage read wires in my case). Saw it recommended that these be added. I'm going to wire up the cell voltage read wires today, into 4x resistor dividers. fuses like this: nz.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Littelfuse/0251002NRT1L/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMuMS2dUaCDnDLY6AWy6KTIs

Have you ever seen www.repackr.com?

[@BusedAsNZ]

Yes, well no not back then when I spent hours doing it by trial and error in a spreadsheet. But yes have used it more recently, achieves the same thing but way way faster

[@KevinMurithi]

You can use battery repacker website for easier battery grouping. www.repackr.com/#/pack-builder

[@BusedAsNZ]

Cheers, thats pretty cool

[@BusedAsNZ]

Hey I have tried that website, of course still doing it on rested voltage as a capacity indicator rather than real measured capacity. Sure makes the process much easier. Now I have to reassemble it and see how it worked out
