Do you have separate battery monitors on each bank so you can see if the SOK are still dropping out early on charge?


At that voltage the Battleborns will balance, also, so the bad one may be...

You may want to get one of these cell monitors, which are really pretty low priced. I think they are just 4 wires to connect after you remove the cover and you can monitor the cell voltages without...

Yep, I remember about the Battleborn balance issue. I took (take) the comment you made about SOK staying at 13.7v until nearly end of the charge cycle to indicate that they were out of balance and...

Does it still shut the charging on and off like it did at the lower voltage? I think was because of misbalanced cells so if that went away they probably got better over time.

Did the cells finally appear to get balanced out after a bunch of charges to that voltage?

Thanks Winston, great to see more real world experience and particularly life data on a well designed, but used in the real world, lithium system.


Many of us have been very skeptical of the...

Thanks, Winston, I thought you might chime in to this.


Do you have any information available how well your cells were balanced originally or what they now after a bunch of use?

You may have already seen this video, but the guy describes what you are seeing indicating the need to balance the batteries.

After you charge it, take a look at the voltage at the SOK battery to see how much it sags. It is highly likely that one cell got to voltage it would see as overcharged as that can happen really...

Do any of your batteries have the ability to show you the individual cell voltages?

There is one thing that hasn't been mentioned, that has made a lot of this kind of stuff harder recently.


Many of the brands seem to be going to automatic top balancing, some like SOK want it on...

I think the connection of multiple lithium batteries is more related to them being in series, not parallel. Several have started recommending add on battery balancers for series use, like are used...

Yep, that should be interesting. The SOK look to be very good batteries but with really low charge rates for being 206ah. It appears to be because SOK uses the same BMS in the 100 and 206ah...
