Found this cute little guy. Battery bms seems to either be dead or cell voltage too low. Has anyone in the Linux community revived a BMS before or recharged from zero?

    Nice trick but there’s a reason the charger is designed to not do what you’re getting it to do. Preventing explosions and such. I’d recommend looking up why/how the chemistries are different at low voltage so you can ride the line more safely

      Absolutely. I’ve only done it once or twice, just long enough to get the one low cell voltage high enough to switch back to lipo mode. Also, all the lipo charging I do is inside of a steel ammo can. My drone buddy teases me about it but I don’t care, big and/or lipo batteries are fucking scary.
