Hi All,
I am making a Mk 2 dive video light this time using the Bridgelux Vero array with a TaskLED driver and want to package as much battery life as I can into my cannister.
Physically there is enough room for 12 18650 cells but I could do with some advice as to the best way to configure them:
Either as option 1 - 4s/3p configuration and using a single battery protection module - will there be any issue with having three parallel cells in each branch?
Or option 2 - having three individual 4s/1p packs each with its own battery protection module and then collect all the outputs from the modules in parallel?
Thanks for any info or sugestions
Tony
PS - this is a video from inside the SS Thistlegorm with my Mk1 video light using 4x Cree xmls and TaskLED driver
