    Could you make a video where you connect a dc-ac inverter to the JK BMS.?

    Bonjour Ernest, c'est vraiment merveilleux. Tout est minutieusement détaillé. j'ai pu initialiser mes 2 JKBMS JK-B2A8S-20PC avec mes 2 packs de batteries 12V 280 Amp c'est super. iI y a juste un petit détail, en plus du Bluetooth sur mon téléphone j'ai également l'écran de contrôle.(Le grand modèle). Les batteries sont chargées à fond, mais elle n'affiche que 78 pourcent de charge. Peut-être est-ce normal et qu'il va falloir attendre que les cycles se fassent et que la batterie et les réglages s'affinent petit à petit. Si tu pouvais me rassuré sur ce point ça serait super. encore un grand merci à ta vidéo elle est super. Dominique

    Great stuff, can two of the 280ah with JK BMS setups be parallel to another same 280ah setup for 560ah in total. Can the JK BMS handle being paralleled

    Hello Ernest, this is really wonderful. Everything is meticulously detailed. I was able to initialize my 2 JKBMS JK-B2A8S-20PC with my 2 12V 280 Amp battery packs, it's great. There is just one small detail, in addition to the Bluetooth on my phone I also have the control screen. (The large model). The batteries are fully charged, but it only shows 78 percent charge. Perhaps this is normal and we will have to wait for the cycles to complete and for the battery and settings to gradually improve. If you could reassure me on this point that would be great. Many thanks again for your video, it’s great. Dominic

    Sorry to say, but one important value is set to bullshit. 'Start Balancing Voltage' you set to 3.2V. At 3.2V the BMS has no clue about the real SoC Value and will tend to make the Balancing even worse! It is widely agreed upon in the community that this value should be at least 3.4, better 3.43...3.45 V. Why? Only above 3.4V the voltage does mean anything in terms of SoC. You are right, the voltage tends to rise quickly if you charge agressively. Put your charge voltage to 3.45 x cellcount and you are fine to go! If the first cell exceeds 3.45V the Balancing will kick in and to the rest while the battery is still mildly charging, but with very low current the balancer can handle. Slight voltage differences above 3.4V don't mean a lot either in terms of SoC. If you have 10mV difference when cells are above 3.45V that means we are talking of less than 0.005C - 0.5% of capacity. But you know at 3.45V at low current the cell is 99.9% full or even more (depending on the actual current).

      3.2V can be used only during initial top balancing with BMS, later on it should be changed as you wrote

      Funny how you talk about top balancing at 3.2.. to me it is just a waste and stress to a 2A balancing BMS​@@piotro7096

    My BMS doesn't have "time smart sleep", is this just a function of certain models?

    • @brianolowo7
      @brianolowo7 4 місяці тому +1

      Probably, the one I got last year doesn't have time smart sleep, soc 100% and 0%. But the BMS I got this week has all those additions

      Hi, i'm finding it a little hard to understand your question. Are you stating the SOC of the BMS is not right? I'd go back to whom you purchased your BMS from to get their help.
