(question from a Noob that has read here a lot)
I hadn't thought of this until I was reading a discussion here today.
I have one of Paul's (EM3EV) chargers that he has customized for his packs to have 3 charge settings: 50%, 80%, 100%
I have one of his 25R 14s packs (with BMS) and plan on charging to 80% normally for longevity.
When the charger is set to charge to 80% and I leave it on and connected for a while after it has signaled that charging has finished will it continue to balance the pack? Or will balancing only work when I am charging to the 100% level?
Now that I think about it, it seems that the BMS would not know to balance the pack at the lower charge level.
I could send Paul email and ask him, but I imagine he gets TONS of email and thought I would be nice to him. :^)
Thanks
