dear forummembers.
what is the general value of cell level fuses to use?
for typical 14S60P or more, I see glassfuses of about 2 amp, 3 amp.
This would be about 3 to 6 times the expected currentdraw, if I'm not too far off. (calculated at 500mA or 1000mA draw per cell)
if I have cells that have a capacity of10Ah and a 1C continuous discharge rating and 3C max discharge, should I be looking for something like a 20Amp fuse?
if i put those cells in parallel (like 14S5P), i could normally safely draw about 50a from the pack.
any suggestions?
Best regards
Stefaan
