PRODUCT FEATURES Remote Bluetooth Monitoring The KA Lithium App allows users to connect and monitor one or multiple batteries simultaneously, whether configured in parallel or series, directly from a mobile device. Features of the KA Lithium App: • State of Charge (SOC): Displays the remaining charge in the battery/battery pack.
Parallel and Series Configuration The KickAss Smart Series batteries can be connected in either parallel or series configurations, but not simultaneously in both. You can connect up to a maximum of 4 batteries in series or 4 batteries in parallel.
Remote Display Monitoring For Series And Parallel Configuration The KickAss Smart Series Batteries can be configured either in parallel or series and support communication between multiple batteries and a single monitoring device. This includes the KA Lithium App or the Remote Display Unit.
Parallel and Series Power Calculations When configured as a parallel battery bank, the KA Lithium App and Remote Display unit both calculate the State of Charge (SOC) as the average of all connected batteries. The current display is a sum of all batteries configured in parallel.
Battery Management System The Battery Management System (BMS) is a crucial component of the KickAss Smart Battery range, ensuring its safe and efficient operation. The BMS performs two primary functions: • Monitoring: Continuously tracks key parameters such as cell voltage, charge/discharge rates, and temperature to maintain safe operating conditions for the battery.
