AC Charging Speed / Efficiency

[Negue]

ps 30 mV delta at the top end is huge (excessive), hopefully it will balance out during the calibration charge, but could be a sign of a weak cell.

I discharge the battery untill heat stop.


I will do this days a 100-0-100% cycles untill values sync ...

Untill now is something odd.
Last night I charged untill 100% and at 16:00 was ~75% SoC

Cap2 was disconnect because courier called to announce if someone is home to bring my dog food :/
To bad that OBDZERO can't work in background.

You only need to do it one time for the calibration to occur.

Did the car charge up to 16 fuel bars without stopping/interruption? If not then you might have to repeat it.

But after that then check your cell voltages and report back the delta max-min voltage.

It is not possible to balance back a large delta due to the very low (100 mA) balancing currents involved, so no need to churn the pack with numerous deep discharge cycles.

Determine the delta when fully charged and when at a low SOC, that will give some good information to evaluate the state of health of your pack.

Cell 10 C looks to be very weak and way out of family

This may never happen (see below)

Looks like cell10 C has an intermittent CMU fault, it seem to have worked fine last night but not today?

For best results run CAP2 on a separate device altogether, the use of a power bank is also recommended.

Correct, but the conservative BMU algorithm will change the capacity by +/- 1Ah max per go.

Even if you repeat the procedure multiple times, changes of only about +/- 2Ah per month are feasible.

To do this in one go, you need a to run the battery calibration function with HobDrive/MUT3/Diagbox

Even without the outlier, your pack has a huge delta (3.26/3.7V), this should improve when fully charged, but is a sure sign of many bad (low capacity) cells.
