    The 200 for resistors is not a gotcha all resistor values on a silkscreen are the value they are period. The type of marking you are thinking of are capacitors that are marked like 104 which are 10 with 4 zeros which is 100 000pF or 100nF

    I believe BigClive has established that one of the terminals is connected to the thermistor on the batteries to tell the tool the battery temperature, and when the pack voltage drops too low it open-circuits it, looking like overheat, and it's up to the tool to stop taking current - hence the MOSFET in the tool.

    That’s about right. I believe EVE LF105’s (Grade A less than 6 months old) will yield ~111Ah typically. If you buy “Grade A” cells and they just barely pull capacity then you didn’t get Grade A. EVE test report sheets are fairly easy to find online so even if you buy another brand you can get a rough idea of what a Grade A of a specific size should pull….except maybe the LF280K’s…those things are just silly, they all pull over 300Ah each so about 10% above their rating.

    Honestly, im seeing so many of these reviews but no one is testing the thing as it is rated. The description is saying it can do up to 0.25mm nickel and its important to know whether that is true. Using the included nickel is not of that much use as i have little doubt it will do the bare minimum of what is claimed. It concerns me that so many RUclipsrs are getting these and only using the company supplied nickel and their information. Im not expecting insane teating but putting it through its paces a bit more would be better. These "reviews" feel more like a product showcase at times. Be honest, if they blacklist you for honesty then you are doing it right.

Instead I've got a painfully long (even at 2x speed) co-exploration of sizes and weird voltage measuring. All of this could've been summarized in one sentence. Substance is lacking. 🤷‍♂️.. I'd be infinitely more intrested how Sodium would do in the cold (do some tests when freezing them).. and how it would recover from full discharge (discharge completely see what happens) - both these of these big "advantages" of Sodium, but there is very little proof.

      @@paulwright8378 No. Amp hours don't add up in series, only in parallel when the voltage stays the same. 1 amp hour at 1000 V is the same energy as 100 Ah at 10 V. Watthours add up regardless because that is like the volume of a bucket. A cell's nominal (average) voltage is 3.2 V. 111 Ah at 3.2 V is a quarter of the energy capacity of 111 Ah at 12.8 V. Problem is that people have been using amp hours as a unit for too long, and it's only easily comparable when everything is 12 V. Get used to thinking in Wh or kWh instead of amp hours, then you'll always be able to know how big the bucket of energy you have is, regardless of what voltage it has.

    • @john_in_phoenix
      @john_in_phoenix 10 дней назад

      My JBD has kept my cells in balance for 5 years now, but that is a sample size of 48 cells. If you top balance properly, and have quality cells the passive (actually they are all active) work fine. The "active" balance is good for low quality cells, but you shouldn't believe everything a youtube "influencer" is paid to tell you. Test it yourself, I did. Technically speaking, "passive" balance (actually a transistor is turned on to discharge across a resistor) only while charging allows you to maximize the amount of energy actually stored. An active balancer has considerable losses (approximately 50%) when transferring energy from one cell to another, and if not done properly will actually imbalance a pack if not restricted to operation only above 3.45v volts (especially with poor quality cells). Really, you should test yourself, I did. There is a reason Tesla, Rivian and others don't use active balancers.
