Hello, I have a Junctek KH-F as well as a Junctek KL shunt battery monitors. When I am charging my 200ah LifePo4 battery with my AC charger(40A), the shunt gets extremely hot and I noticed this can sometimes drop my charger from producing it rated 40A to maybe 33A. I wanted to adjust the screw on the shunt a few days and my hand was literally burnt the moment I touched the screw on the shunt(it was that extremely hot). Wanted to ask, is this how all shunts are very hot at say 40A. I connected my charger directly to my battery terminals, and the terminals were barely warm even after almost 2hours of charging. Is this how all shunts are usually very hot or is it the Junctek that is just poorly made.
