@snoobler Very interested in the active balancer you posted. Do you know what voltage difference will cause the balancer to start balancing? I have tried some of the cheaper $10 boards from eBay but they dont actually do anything until a 100-200 millivolt difference is detected, which seems way too high to do much good. I'm reviving this thread because I tried emailing the seller and they have not responded. Thanks in advance.
From the site:
"Keeps Your Batteries Voltage difference Within 10mV! "
My cells were always within .01V, so I have no reason to believe they don't meet that requirement.
If you emailed ECPC, you need to call them. Carl is the common point of contact. He's an OLDer gentlemen, and I have found his handling of email to be sub-optimal.
There's a link to the manual on the product page.
Not great, but it's my understanding is these ALWAYS balance any time the cells are more than 10mV apart. Period.
They do regularly emit a high pitched tone as well. Kinda unpleasant if you're right next to it, but it's part of how they work.
Intrusting......He has been fast to respond to my e-mails. Go figure.From the site:

Yeah, it'd be more than enough to handle that mild of a mismatch.Thanks for the details and photo. I have one cell out of 10 packs that's way high in ralation to the rest (400mv). If I'm charging at 1.25 amp per cell this should work correct?
Edit - on the discharge (.025c per cell) everything is fine.
