To a point yes.
The bcm operates as normal but is fed fake voltages from a Potential divider so it always sees a perfectly balanced pack. The bcm counts soc/current as normal, so every 4 ah or so I activate a switch which adds another 12-15v to the PD input raising the BCM/apparent pack voltage over the positive recal threshold. It then refills soc back upto 19 bars. I repeat this ad infinitum until my lithium pack is exhausted.
Now obviously this is not ideal and the main reason I am trying to decode the bcm/mcm signals so we can fake/control the soc/etc and finally discard the now redundant BCM.
