Hi
My battery cut out the other day, unplugged and would go for a while until not very much power would cut it out again. Battery was charged before the ride and showed full voltage on the display after cutting out multiple times.
One cell showed very little voltage, everything was connected, all the other cells showed normal.
Put about 20 hours on the 1P lithium pouch cells
I reset the one cell and it did not charge to the normal voltage compared to the other cells.
I removed the cell and replaced it with a spare . I only made a 16 cell battery so I had 4 spare.
What could be the reason for the one cell going bad after 4 months of mild use? Of course it was one right in the middle of the pack
3 other cells are showing 1 to 2 V difference to the rest on full charge.
What Can I do to balance them ? Or is that a sign that the cells are not of the best quality. - Yes Alibaba .
I am using a Daly BMS that should balance them automatically.
Would using normal 21700 cells in parallel provide much better reliability than 1 P since the multiple cells in parallel would auto balance themselves in each group?
( Using a good known name brand this time )
Thanks for any input
