NoordSolar Posted September 10, 2020 Posted September 10, 2020 Has anyone used one of these multichannel battery monitors designed for the RC guys ?? https://www.goblinhobbies.co.za/digital-battery-capacity-checker-tester-cellmeter-8-lipo-battery-discharger-balancer-rc-servo-tester.html https://www.goblinhobbies.co.za/charger-and-power-supplies/charger-accessories/isdt-batterygo-bg-8s-smart-battery-checker.html Just wondering if you can keep then permanently wired in or do they draw current unequally from the cells ? Perhaps other issues when permanently on Quote
NoordSolar Posted September 11, 2020 Author Posted September 11, 2020 Thanks for the info - do you need external balance loads to implement the balancing or is it an active balancer? 400ma x3.2V x 8 cells = 10 watts which will generate quite a lot of heat? Do the displays stayon all the time or do they "timeout " after a while Quote
NoordSolar Posted September 11, 2020 Author Posted September 11, 2020 I guess its just the top cell that gets burnt off . I have seen a video where the cell 8 can external drive a lamp load , not sure if they were discharging or balancing Quote
