Estimating the term…
A portable power supply including a first subcore including a first plurality of battery cells, a second subcore including a second plurality battery cells and electrically connected in series with the first subcore, and a controller including an electronic processor. The controller is configured to receive a first voltage value indicative of a voltage of the first plurality of battery cells from the first subcore and a second voltage value indicative of a voltage of the second plurality of battery cells from the second subcore. The controller is further configured to determine a difference between the first voltage value and the second voltage value, compare the difference to a balance threshold, and perform a balancing operation when the difference is greater than or equal to the balance threshold.
A portable power supply comprising:
A method of balancing subcore voltages in a portable power supply, the portable power supply includes a first subcore including a first plurality of battery cells, a second subcore including a second plurality of battery cells and electrically connected in series with the first subcore, and a controller including an electronic processor, the method comprising:
A method of charging one or more subcores in a portable power supply, the portable power supply includes a first subcore including a first plurality of battery cells, a second subcore including a second plurality of battery cells and electrically connected in series with the first subcore, and a controller including an electronic processor, the method comprising:
