Charging Li-ion batteries beyond 80% can drastically accelerate battery degradation. Seems from what is known by now, charging to 80% is the way to destroy ones battery long hefore normal degradation would happen. As by charging to 80% no balancing happens which leads to dead cells making the whole pack unusable. As it was discussed years ago make doing full charges with balancing every 5th or 10th time is not enough to keep the battery healthy. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, charging to 80% or 90 or even 95% is very good for prolonging battery life, only if it it done by the bms, like the ninebots do. If the charge is stopped before the balancing stage, the pack will get unbalanced, individual cells will get stressed more, and battery life will get worse. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oleg Artene Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Thank you for the info! You saved my battery. I was about to always do 90% charging, with the best intentions in mind. There should be a warning in app when you open the Limit by Percentage option, for newbies like me. P.S. For those who don't understand why no balancing is bad: Video1, Video2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oleg Artene Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 About "Disable battery balancing" option - so EUC.World has complete control over charging/BMS (not only monitoring and plug on/off)? If so, should I trust it my wheel internal settings and possibly leaving them in some invalid/harmful state? Or on "Disable balancing" it just turns off the plug when charging power starts to drop (beginning of balancing phase)? ---- At the moment I change to 100% and don't disable balancing. So far it looks good (KS18L) screenshot: Spoiler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly this is all EUC World (can do) does! 13 hours ago, Oleg Artene said: Or on "Disable balancing" it just turns off the plug when charging power starts to drop (beginning of balancing phase)? With disable balancing EUC World stops once power dissipation dropped to ~30W. With balance ng enabled it charges one hour more. So with both variants "normal" balancing happens. With balancing disabled it could correspond a bit more with the manufactures recommendations for charge cut off current. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boogieman Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 (edited) Now that i finally got my Sherman i find this charge plug interesting (tesla don't turn on at charge), but a few thoughts. If the plug cuts the power to the charger, but the wheel is still connected, isn't that bad for the charger and possibly even the wheel (charger working as a small load)? Most "Cheap china chargers" (all of the included ones) I am sure will act as a load if connected without power (unless the wheel prevents it) Also as per recomendation the wheel should be disconnected first, then the charger, to prevent sparks. Not sure how this will act if the capacitors in the charger has been drained (unless the wheel keep em charged even with power off). The idea is really cool, i just want to make sure its safe for the wheel, charger....and batteries (= also my apartment) Edited July 6, 2021 by Boogieman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on charger design, but in most cases shouldn't be an issue. Of course you can put an ampmeter between the wheel and the charger and check if the reverse current is significant or not. 10 hours ago, Boogieman said: Most "Cheap china chargers" (all of the included ones) I am sure will act as a load if connected without power (unless the wheel prevents it) I'm not sure if there is reverse current protection in Sherman, as it shares many parts of mainboard circuit design with Begode (but there are some improvements in charging part). For Begode/Gotway wheels I always recommend putting a Schottky diode on a positive wire between charging socket and the battery. If there is no reverse current protection in Sherman, this recommendation will also apply for Sherman. What is the benefit of added Schottky diode? There are several: reverse polarity protection; reverse current flow prevention (from battery to charger); any accidental short circuit on charging port is no longer a problem, especially it won't cause any arcing or connector melting. 10 hours ago, Boogieman said: Also as per recomendation the wheel should be disconnected first, then the charger, to prevent sparks. Not sure how this will act if the capacitors in the charger has been drained (unless the wheel keep em charged even with power off). There should be no arcing when disconnecting charger from EUC, regardless whether you disconnect charger from EUC first or charger from wall socket first. As long as the charger is connected to the wheel, voltages on both are equal, so no significant current is flowing between two. Arcing will be an issue only if there is no reverse current protection in wheel, and you connect a charger that hasn't been powered from the wall for some time. As it's secondary side capacitors will be empty, there will be large voltage difference between battery and charger, causing reverse current to flow and cause arcing. This is why for wheels like Begode/Gotway and maybe Sherman it's best to connect charger to the wall socket first, then connect it to the wheel. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, HS110 on French TP-Link site is marked as "Nouveaute" ("New"). KS115 is an upcoming product that is not yet available in stores. Anyway, when KS115 will be available, I'll get one to verify if it can be used with EUC World, so American users will have an option to pricey, US version of HS110. HS110 is now (at least at the .de site) offically end of life - i also did not find any shop to buy it anymore... KP115 seem to never really became available? P110 are widely available and seem the be the actual TP-Link energy monitoring smart switches?! Edited March 22, 2022 by Chriull 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the notice! I have a HS110 for years and I love it (using it for a bunch of stuff) and I wanted more. I got 2x Tapo P110 now on Amazon Sweden now that it's finally available, yay! Python-Kasa which I use all the time in command-line with the HS110 doesn't support the P110 yet, but the Tapo P100 project does so that's workable.

I'm now working on Shelly Plug S support. Tapo P110 requires cloud access, which is what I would like to avoid. Shelly provides local API that can be directly accessed, which doesn't require Internet access, gives better privacy and is more reliable. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
