How do they know what to set the low voltage shut off at when it is not balanced at that end? I assume it is top-balanced.
They must be confident the cells are enough alike that one won't go too low.
That was another thing that I had to wrap my head around. I was under the impression that the cell voltages would vary widely but I've found that the difference between the highest and the lowest cells in my battery has always been at 0.008V or less. So the cells would have to be out of balance by a lot more than that before the voltage shut off would be inaccurate. I'm not running big loads and I have 6 amp cell balancers, which I'm assuming is the reason my cells have been staying so close in voltage.
