A micromobility vehicle charging system for charging a lithium titanate battery pack is provided. The system is configured to be interposed between a vehicle battery pack and an electrical connector for electric vehicles. The system includes a charging unit configured to charge a battery pack having a plurality of rechargeable cells, the charging unit configured to monitor the charging state and status of each cell during both charging and discharging. A balancing unit electrically coupled to the charging unit is configured to balance voltage across each rechargeable cell of the plurality of rechargeable cells.
An electric vehicle charging system for micromobility vehicles, comprising a power/battery management system configured to be electrically connected to, and interposed between, a plurality of rechargeable cells in a lithium-ion or lithium titanate battery pack and an electrical connector for electric vehicles connected to an active vehicle side control board module, said battery management system (BMS) including a charging unit, a balancing unit electrically coupled to said charging unit and configured to balance voltage across each rechargeable cell of the plurality of rechargeable cells, and a display unit electrically coupled to said charging unit and configured to display at least one parameter indicative of a charge status of the battery pack, said power/battery management system further including an AC-DC power converter to convert AC power to DC power for delivery to said BMS.
