Limit current TO battery with no restriction from the battery, I guess I'm trying in reinvent the wheel because such beasts already exist, but I haven't found anything within budget for 48v. On Tue, Sep 7, 2021, 6:58 PM Chuck McCown wrote: > Which way would take priorit? Yes you can use a line

Which way would take priorit? Yes you can use a linear regulator in a current limiting configuration. Sent from my iPhone > On Sep 7, 2021, at 5:00 PM, TJ Trout wrote: > >  > Is there some combo of a diode and another component I could use to allow > full current one way and limited current

Is there some combo of a diode and another component I could use to allow full current one way and limited current to 1am the other way? On Tue, Sep 7, 2021, 3:56 PM TJ Trout wrote: > This is lithium, the lvd is integrated to the pack. I'm going to attempt > to use a 360w meanwell charger on a l

This is lithium, the lvd is integrated to the pack. I'm going to attempt to use a 360w meanwell charger on a lithium charge profile paralleled with the battery and the load, I wasn't sure if the load would stay offline until the batteries get to the loads minimum voltage to run or what the behavior

Most rectifiers for “float “ service have current limiting. And yes the batteries will present a heavy load and it will take some time for the voltage to come up. If the lvd reconnects the batts the voltage could drop so much they will disconnect again and flop for a while. You need a rectifi
