Unbalanced 10S pack: how to assess and fix : r/diybattery
Hi :) Definitely wouldn''t be a cause for concern if this voltage difference is equally split among all strings. However, in my experience with battery packs, what usually happens is that one or two cells will start failing prematurely and take the whole pack down with them, thus why I suspect this whole voltage imbalance may be concentrated in one or two strings of cells in parallel.

What happens if a battery pack is out of balance?
s linked together. A battery pack is out of balance when any property or state of those cells differs. Imbalanced cells lock away otherwise usable energy and increase battery degradation. Batteries that are out of balance cannot be fully charged or fully discharged, and the imbalance causes cells to wear and degrade at accelerated rates.
What happens if a battery reaches a low voltage threshold?
To prevent over discharge of cells and resulting damage, battery managements system will terminate discharge if any of the cells reached low voltage threshold. Cell based termination voltage is usually set to lower value than pack based threshold divided by number of serial cells, so that the difference can allow for a small unbalance.
What causes a difference in battery voltages?
A difference in cell voltages is a most typical manifestation of unbalance, which is attempted to be corrected either instantaneously or gradually through by-passing cells with higher voltage. However, the underlying reasons for voltage differences on the level of battery chemistry and discharge kinetics are not widely understood.
How to balance a battery pack correctly?
needs two key things to balance a battery pack correctly: balancing circuitry and balancing algorithms. While a few methods exist to implement balancing circuitry, they all rely on balancing algorithms to know which cells to balance and when. So far, we have been assuming that the BMS knows the SoC and the amount of energy in each series cell.
What is a battery pack?
A battery pack is a collection of battery cells packaged into an application-specific format. These can be as small as a single cell or as large as thousands of cells arranged in series and parallel configurations, along with any associated electronics and mechanical components. A battery cell is the smallest energy-storing unit of a battery.
What is battery cell balancing?
Battery cell balancing brings an out-of-balance battery pack back into balance and actively works to keep it balanced. Cell balancing allows for all the energy in a battery pack to be used and reduces the wear and degradation on the battery pack, maximizing battery lifespan. How long does it take to balance cells?
