Well, I understand how that would work in constant current mode. If a cell is removed during charging in this mode, the voltage will simply go down.

But I was talking about when the charger was in constant voltage mode. If the charger was at 20v on 5 batteries, that's 4v per battery. However, if one of those batteries was disconnected by the balancer, that's 5v per battery.

Specifically, I was looking at the LBA6 hi current balancer.

By the way, is Bishop Power Products good (meaning; customer service)? They are having a 4th of July sale!
