Ok so just a quick question to anybody that knows a thing or two about makita packs from disassembling them in the past to salvage cells.
Do makita battery packs have an over discharge circuit built into the battery? I know that the battery it self has BMS of some kind however i dont know what it controls in deatail. When plugged into the charger the battery charging turns off one full charge is reached to protect the cells inside from over charge. I also know that the tools stop when the batteries reach the over discharge voltage (there are also over temperature and current draw protections) however my question is for the batteries themselves.
If i where to discharge a makita battery outside one of the tools will the battery it self shut of before it kills itself or will it continue to feed power till it drops down below recovery voltage.
Im asking as i would like to use these packs to power a future project due to their conveninace and the fact i have tons of them laying around as i use them for my everyday job.
Thanks in advance.
