What happens at 0°C and at 45°C, and how to stay inside the band.

The charging temperature window

Above 45°C reduce current; below 0°C stop charging entirely.

Heating, cooling and derating

Heating pads solve the cold end; airflow solves the hot end.

Charging & BMS questions

Short answers to the ones that come up most.

What charger does lithium need?

One with a lithium profile matching voltage and BMS protocol.

What does a BMS protect?

Over/under voltage, over-current, short circuit, temperature, plus balancing.

Charge voltage?

3.45–3.65V per cell.

Charging below freezing?

Not without a heater.

How do I check compatibility?

Voltage, current and protocol — if the charger cannot read the BMS it will mis-charge eventually.
