There would be no more issues with improper cell count mistakes; the charger would simply activate the channel(s) with a cell attached. And there would be no more balancers to mess with.
Yeah, the pack would be a little heavier, but I can deal with that.  |
I have an indirect ear to Hyperion, it would be in interesting pitch and since they do both chargers and batteries it may be an easy place to start.
