hello friends,
I'm planning to make a 4S1P battery pack. I'm using a BMS with balance charge function. But I'm so confused with the 5 balance wires that could be connected to the connector on the board. I have attached a pic of the BMS board that I'm using in my project. My question is , apart from the balance wires there are 7 silver pads i.e P+, P-, B+, B-, B1, B2, B3 on the board. I have already attached wires from these silver pads to the respective terminals as shown in the second pic. But what should I do with the balancing wires?? these are also named to connect in the same terminals as of the silver pads so what should I do ?? Should I short these balance wires to the silver pads for the balancing to work or I just don't connect it assuming that its an additional setup for those who don't wishes to solder to the 5 terminals(B+, B-, B1, B2, B3) on silver pads.
