Just like the title says, I don't get what I am doing wrong with my settings for the JK BMS 4-8S, 200A BMS with EVE 304AH, 12v batteries setup. I have followed general settings for the JK Lipo setup, and have tried max charge to 3.65, 3.60, in-between, loweer, and what I seem to get is that @ 3.65 the battery will charge to 3.4 to 3.42, or so, and then the app will, by its self, raise the calibration voltage setting!
The JK app says the batterys is at about 79% charge. I have not drained the battery to close to zero and recharged from there. I started with the JK and this 'new' battery, at 3.27, all balanced.
I am unable to set the 'calibrating current'.
I am using a standard 10 amp/12V outputting about 14 volts, car battery charger, which does charge the LiPO battery, and decreases the amps over time, seems to me speedy enough. I also have a variable car battery LiPO charger, 10/30/100 amp, which I have not used yet.
The BMS does keep the cells very well balanced, though I suspect that maybe I am not leaving it long enough for 'saturation', if that is the correct word. I'm testing this charging battery setup independent of any other connections to anything with this type of trial.

I know I am missing a good deal of understanding, despite my daily and nightly reading for a few months now, trying to finesse this JK BMS/battery process.
Can someone add some insight?
