Hope this is the right forum. I've read through the FAQ forum as much as I could and after I got out of there I have these questions.
Project overview:
I have a module that requires 12-24v and 20 18650 batteries that are going to go in a tote able case. After reading the FAQ it appears that 18650's or Li-Ion in generalare not ideal for a 12v system. at least in a 3s configuration.
Would I be better off conforming to a 24v system or a 4s 12v system? The hardware can handle the 12-16.8v range. I am concerned that the 24v system would be too close to the upper edge to be safe.
I think at most the system would pull 5A a peak.
as far as battery pack design goes it seems that the general setup would be charger>bms> 18650batteries in xS configuration.
Some other general questions are:
[*]Does a BMS protect against depleting the batteries as in if I leave the moduleon does it have protection against draining the batteries too low. (I've had previous issues with NiCad)
[*]BMS recommendations. my project is pretty simple i believe the batrium system would be overkill.
[*]Charger recommendations TP4056/TP5100?
