IMHO charging any LFP pack to 14.6v is at least bone headed and at worst dangerous to your battery. I have seen them and other manufacturers such as Battle Born make that comment but I think it should at best be "
NEVER EXCEED 14.6V"
Let's do some quick math.
- 14.6v devided by -cells in series = 3.65v per cell.
- All of the cell manufactures say that the cell voltage should never exceed 3.65v.
- To charge to 14.6v the battery will need to be in perfect balance with a delta of 0.00v with all cells at exactly 3.65v.
Lets assum your battery is extreamly well balanced with only one over achieving cell with a 5mv delta. If you charge to 14.6v your cells will be at 3.649v + 3.649v + 3.649v + 3.653v = 14.6 and you just tripped the OVP and forced the BMS's FETs to shut off charging. If you use 14.6v as your charge voltage, you will be using the BMS as the charge controller rather than the safety value.
On my DIY build, I charge to 13.8v and let my JK keep everything in balance. On my Basen batteries, which have passive balancing, I charge to 14.2v with 60-minutes of absorption. In both cases I float at 13.3v or lower.
