Reconditioning the HV battery using iMax B6

Can you measure the temperature of the batteries in a free state and later at the moment of maximum charge?

 

When I was first charging them they hit 130f and I got concerned so put a fan on them.

 

IMAX B6 allows you to connect a temperature sensor and turn off the charge when the programmed limit is reached.
But you can also install a fan to blow air on the battery during the charging process.

 

The block furthest away from the battery ecu is block 1. It's on the passenger side.

When "testing" a battery, you determine capacity by measuring how much power is used while discharging.

During the charge phase, you can't tell how much power is "filling" the battery vs how much is turned into heat. When you are discharging, all the power has to come from inside that battery.

There are many threads in the forums about DIY pack repair. Good luck.
