Title: MBCM
Post by: stishsun on May 15, 2014, 01:08:20 AM
Does the MBCM reading is just the volt corresponding SoC ? if the battery has loading, the Volt will be dropped, the drop level is depended on how much the current. Does it mean the reading is not accurate if the loading on the battery ?

Yes, the MNBCM uses voltage. Yes it will sag with loads.

I consider it a quick visual indicator of status rather than hard SOC data.
