Awesome thanks. And is there non oem battery chargers, or are they brand specific? And what are the stats on the battery charger?

I have opened the Rad battery. The BMS uses semiconductor switches to connect and disconnect the cells from the power port. When "off" these switches do allow a small amount of what is called leakage current to pass. That is why you see a voltage with the key switch off. The amount of current is so low that even the high impedance of your multimeter loads it down, which is why you see a lesser voltage than nominal battery voltage.

I know its been awhile since this convo started, but since you've taken the pack apart, could you tell me what series and parallel the pack is, and what voltage, ah, is?
