Hi all,
I have a battery which I have opened for testing. As is already known if you remove any cell from the circuit the BSM requires resetting. I want to able to use an empty battery case to house the BMS and fit it with 2 x XT60 connectors and 2 x 4 pin balance connectors. I will wire both sets in parallel and mount the HV LIPO on top of the drone.
The issue comes when swapping the batteries as one pack will be discharged and the other fully charged, both will be connected at the same time for a short period to keep the BMS from creating the flag.
Would it be acceptable to install 2 x 10A schottky diodes in parallel (for redundancy) on the positive side of each XT60 connector to stop reverse charging during the battery change over?
cheers,
Dan
