good job man, first thing first those amazon bms dont do balancing even they say it does :) second thing i think first bms you hooked up was wrong way round and blow the resistors thats why the bms heats up and last thing if you want a long life from your bms just bypass the discharge connection, that way you get more power from you battery and eliminate using discharge function of the bms (less stress for bms ) bms there for only to deliver 4.2v in to blocks equally, if you have bad cells in the pack replacing bms will only be a temporary solution after few cycle of usage the problem will occur again best solution replace the lowest cells when replacing the bms.

Trial an error. Yea first one balance wires were backwards. Didn't see that until after I cooked the board; because I didn't realize they had a 2 way standard.

092422/1639 PST 🇺🇸. Thank you for demo. What was interesting in the video was that, the length of the BMS cables were cut required length. That was the most interesting feature of the video. Thank you again, for demonstrating the idea. There are several postings by KZread Warriors that “NO NO, THE BMS CABLES must not be cut to required length. The sky will fall down ! (I added this!) The cable can be snipped to required length, readers please understand this. Thank you, Sir, for the ocular proof. Best wishes. 73s…

Not sure what you are asking.

Want to find out some good 13/14s BMSes. Ideas? Am thinking that BMSes should be *entirely* connected by anti-spark connectors… seems Amass makes ~ 100 Amp bullet connectors.

@Eric_Tennant

Would make for faster swapping if they were sold with bullet connectors. If it the right BMS there will be no spark. I seen while editing this video that both BMS's have B+, B- on the board by the balance wires connection. Oops. The main output wires, some use XT90 anti-spark connectors. At some point I may move to these for better efficiency. Right now I'm using Xt60 with sparks.

Thank you! Very helpful video! I got a 13s7p battery, and one of the cells is discharging much faster than the others. Also this cell charges only to 3.5-3.6v, when the others are 4.2v, and the charger light turns green. And when storing this cell once dropped to 1.5v. According to your experience, is it a bad cell or bms? Thank you!

Try to charge just that row and see if it will take a full charge. If not then it's the cells. Battery is only as strong as it's weakest cell. Most bms do a poor job at balancing for what I've seen.

Not sure. Could work; however the other 12 rows will be lower then 4.2v give the 6p row would be full first and the BMS will stop charging. I used a old 18650 charger from my old vaping days. Your going to need to equal out all cells on that row before adding the missing battery back to it.

When I directly connect the battery (~36 volts) to the hoverboard, the hoverboard powers on. I'm fed up with troubleshooting this darn thing and plan to just ride out the charge in the battery, until it's depleted, then throw everything away. Is that safe, as long as I don't charge the battery?

Sounds like a bad BMS or one of the Column of batteries is not charging. You could ride the battery one last time. It will only damage the battery when the voltage goes to low.

Hi, I have a Kugoo G booster , my voltage is dropping from 51.4 to 0 in seconds . I leave it for few hours then it works like nothing is wrong !! it occurs randomly. Do you think my Bms is damaged ? and after seeing your video i have gone through some bms on amazon but most of them says ≤500w motor and i have two 800w motos so can i use those ?

100% the BMS is doing that. Ether its bad or it detects the battery is overheating. The only other reason BMS would shut off the discharge is if one of the 13 cells (Columns) drops below 3.6v; however it wouldn't come back until it was charged past that voltage again.

Always a good idea when possible.

So, my 60 volt e-bike and its battery got stolen a couple weeks back, and the other day the police returned it and the battery. Now, rather than charging up to a maximum of 70.3 volts, the BMS is saying that the battery is only a 48 volt battery. Did the thieves give the police the wrong battery, or is the BMS acting up? Not only did the battery come back out of its wrapper, but when I completely unwrapped the battery I noticed that four cells were removed from one end of it. The thieves may have removed the four missing cells, or the battery may have simply came that way from the factory. Not sure

It means the balance leads are connected wrong. While it’s possible on a dumb BMS, it’s more likely on a smart BMS that works for 7s to 16s. On the dumb BMS which only has the exact number of leads needed, its not easy mess that up, but for smart BMS they have different wiring diagram. For example, my ANT 10s-24s you just connect in order and leave the last wires disconnected since they aren’t used, but my 7s-16s has connect 2 balance leads to one of the middle series and omit wires between those two. Very odd if you are expecting it to be ordinary. So check the wiring diagram for your specific model and for 13s, it will tell you which wires to omit and which two wires to connect to which cell. For example, on the ANY 7s-16s wired for 13s, you would omitted balance leads 8&9, and connect balance leads 7&10 to cell 7(+). All the other balance leads would be connected in sequence like any other BMS. And as always, BMS must be connected to battery (-) before you connect the balance leads to the BMS. But I’m sure by now you already found the solution. Lol
