balancing
In computing, load balancing is the process of distributing a set of tasks over a set of resources (computing units), with the aim of making their overall processing more efficient. Load balancing can optimize the response time and avoid unevenly overloading some compute nodes while other compute nodes are left idle.
Load balancing is the subject of research in the field of parallel computers. Two main approaches exist: static algorithms, which do not take into account the state of the different machines, and dynamic algorithms, which are usually more general and more efficient but require exchanges of information between the different computing units, at the risk of a loss of efficiency.
I've got the Mk2 ZS EV with 51kWh LFP battery.
Despite being LFP I usually stop charging around 90%. In part because it is better for the battery, and mostly because I really hate it that KERS does not work properly with a fully battery.
Only once every month or two I charge to 100%.
I...
Always balanced my 4 half an hour drawing low levels.
Post update it was going for 2.5 hours … I had to stop it as I was going to work. Is that normal ?
On the PFL you did this. Wait until it says on dashboard. "Finished Uncharged" White letters.
If the message is Finished and it is in Green colour then it is balancing.
Wait for the white message "Finished - Uncharged" and the whole process has been completed.
But how do you know it is...
The following observation I should have done when car was newer. Or better, new, with periodic data points as it aged. Alas, I was occupied with other things.
Car was charged to 100% and after a ~4hr rest:
HV= 349.xx
SOC =100% info 103.xx% car scanner
HV/LV delta = 170mV. Car scanner (...
I really do feel for those posting about continual problems with their MG3 hybrid cars but I feel we need a post for all of those who are loving their cars and enjoying the experience.
I count myself as fortunate to not have had any issues in 2 months of ownership and I am absolutely gelling...
Hi guys , been looking through the threads on battery balancing, lots of info and thanks to guys who posted them , but ..... just got what i hope are a couple of simple questing to take away some of my confusion , I have a ohme pod charging linked to octopus rates.
From what i can gather from...
hi,
so I was charging on a 11kW public station, and I eventually fell asleep. I usually charge at around 9.6kW displayed into the iSmart app.
I woke up with the car at 100% but this was happening:
And a few minutes later:
I never charged to 100% overnight and leaving it plugged. is it a...
I've just done the first full charge (8% to 100%) for our new car.
Surprisingly the battery's balancing took only 8 minutes.
Perhaps this is an indication of how beneficial a long slow charge is?
(This was with a granny charger.)
The other unexpected thing was that on the first drive the...
I know there has been a number of threads related to this subject, but is there a definitive way of achieving this; specifically:
How often should it be done?
Can you only do a balance at 100% on a granny charger?
Can you do a balance at 100% with a home 7kW charger?
Can you balance on higher...
Whilst producing photos for another thread I set my Trophy charging using the granny charger. I was distracted and left it charging beyond the short boost I wanted. It reached 41% before I remember it so I opened the app and set the charge limit to 40%. I wanted to see if the car would stop...
Feel the need for a little clarification on this, as the word 'balancing' had now tested its head in a few threads I've watched......
Until now, I've not known about balancing....
Not discussed at all during the purchase process.
So in a nutshell, what is the correct procedure to achieve...
Anyone with experience of Octopus Intelligent Go / Ohme / MG4 Trophy?
Just had the Ohme Home Pro installed last week and using Octopus Intelligent Pro which is working fine.
I want to do a balancing charge - I am guessing, I just set the car to charge to 100% and dial in the correct % on the...
At the end of every full charge my ZS takes at least a 4 hour balancing charge at 0.3kW. Sometimes 6 hours.
This is in addition to the very poor fast charging and very low battery capacity compared to specification.
Max charge rate ever has been 36kW. Spec 76kW.
Max charge from zero to full...
I have had a Long Range trophy MGEV 4 since May 2023. I have a home charager and I just charge to 80% of capacity. I notice that some posters refer to a Balancing Charge whch is supposed to be done every 6 months or so.What is this and how do I activate it.
Hey everyone
Saw a vid on YouTube on battery balancing for the MG4 so wondered how important it is.
I've never done it nor was I advised by the dealer to do it (had the car about 4 months from new). Did a search on here but only found info related to the ZS.
So:
Should I do it for my MG4...
