Hey guys;
So I have 14 - 1s90p cells.
Is it possible/practical for me to load/Capacity Test each 1s90p seperately?
I am asking this question because I do not have a BMS as of yet. I have been running experiments with:
Solar Panels -- 4 240 Watt 37Vo 8.5 Ao Wired in Parallel 37Vo 34 Amps(open)
MPPSolar Charger m(PCM60)
Ames Inverter 24V 6000W
2 7S90P in parallel -- 28V (24V) Battery ~360 Amp Hours (1 cell x 90 cells x 2 A/cell == 360Amps)
The above setup has been under load and PV recharge for about 3 days.
The individual 1s90p cells are starting to diverge more than is healthy.
Taking Voltage Measurements, I can see what are my low performing 1s90p cells.
I guess a more general question is:
How to trouble shoot the above problem of diverging voltages (unhealthy outcome).
I have shut the system down. I plan on pulling the lower performing 1s90p cells to individually check 18650s and fuses.
In putting the 1s90p cells together, I did not run the calculator for organizing 18650 cells. I sort of went on the philosophy of my processes being random enough.
Thoughts/advice/admonishments ???
