For multi-cell LiFePO4 battery packs, cell balancing is crucial for longevity.
- What is Cell Balancing? It ensures all cells charge/discharge evenly, preventing weak cells from degrading faster.
- Use a BMS with Active Balancing: This helps maintain uniform cell voltages.
- Check Voltages Periodically: If one cell consistently shows a different voltage, it may need attention.
- Avoid Deep Imbalances: Large voltage differences between cells reduce overall capacity and lifespan.
Regular maintenance keeps your battery pack running efficiently for years.
