Yes, I understand that. I have the BMS connected to the individual cells but I have it on the bench and wanted to charge it. I wanted to know if I would solder the negative connection from the charger to the C- tab and the negative line going to the battery pack to the B- tab. I planned to connect the positive line from the charger to positive battery post.
If I was then to install the battery into the cart, I planned to hook the load up to the battery negative and positive battery posts.
The idea was to set up the BMS for CHARGE ONLY, protecting the battery cells by shutting them down individually when the achieved the max charge limit allowed by the BMS to avoid overloading one cell.
Maybe the way I am describing my plan is not clear, so I apologize. And I do plan to use an Anderson connector to the charger.
