BLS Question   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #20517 of 21428 |
I'm thinking about getting a BLS, as my range after 1 yr.on my DEKAs seems to

The batteries all stay within .2 volts of each other, except under load when
they stay within .4 volts.
I think my Chinese charger may have hurt them or the miss-set algorithm on my
new Delta-Q.
Thanks for any help you can give me. Patrick

Uh oh. A week at fifteen volts may have been the key to the coffin. When a battery overcharges, the electrolyte is converted to gas, specifically hydrogen. In...

Fred, Thanks for the information. No, I didn't see your dissertation, I've searched for it to no avail, could you please elaborate? Patrick...

I didn't try to find it either, as it was at the end of a thread with a different subject line. Because the CA uses a shunt for current and obviously measures...
