Hey Folks,
I have a bike with Kelly KBS 72v controller and a 20s8p battery. I want the option to add on another 20s8p battery in parrallel to add more capacity on some occasions.
Each of the batteries would have its own BMS and I was thinking of adding a 3rd one to manage the two packs as I would imagine each may have varying levels of SOC. Im also thinking I would install a SOC display on each pack so I would know which one to priortise charging whilst the 3rd BMS would combine the two packs to show a combined SOC to display on the bike.
Basically the 3rd BMS would input two set of wires for each of the packs and run either one or two packs in parallel each with its own connector. And will output into controller conventionally
Would the design work like that?
As the 3rd BMS would register the each pack as a single cell, any recommendation for the kind of BMS I may need?
thanks for reading!,
