Please explain to me how the nimh waits till 4.05v to start shunting, unless there is circuitry that prevents them from taking a charge till 4.05v.
Once you put a bms between the lithium and the nimh, then yes you can bleed into a battery. Most bms just bleed wh into heat.
Nimh is at the same voltage as lion, and it starts shunting because of its characteristics. It also bleeds wh into heat, because it's designed that way, just like lead starts to heat over some voltage and thus it self-balances. As nimh starts wasting wh into heat, it also takes that "shunting" current from lion, because they are in parallel.
I think it's something like that :lol:
