Seems to me that is an important question, no matter what alleged device protection there is. I would want to know what the highest INDIVIDUAL battery temperature is. I would want an alarm when any battery reaches X degrees. Doesn't matter how many batteries there are. The more batteries, the more important for the driver to know what's going on. I suppose they do not keep track of individual battery temperature, but maybe they should. I would want that. Too many batteries to keep track of? Then too risky.
OT: Do electric cars let you monitor INDIVIDUAL battery temperature?

Individual cell temperatures, though, is hundreds of numbers, mainly about the same because the cells are thermally regulated (heated/cooled) in operation. When the vehicle is stationary, you'd just see temperature settling to ambient, and when it's moving, you have more important info (like children running into the road) than a thermometer reading on cell #225.

Some use 18650 batteries, or maybe 20/21. Apparently some beginning to use bigger batteries. Yes, you can call the whole thing a "battery", or a "cluster of cells/batteries" but in fact it's made up of a bunch of INDIVIDUAL batteries. Each battery is in its own individual package, therefore calling those individual batteries "batteries" is sensible. But seriously. This thing must be perpetually stoned/drunk... corvid <bl@ckb.ird> wrote:> On 6/19/22 20:16, John Doe wrote: >> Off topic troll... > > The troll means cells, but doesn't know it.

Gotta be the best electric vehicle explosion video to date.

It's not a troll, and it's properly labeled "OT". We have a convention here on USENET. Most agree that off-topic posts are okay if they are properly labeled "OT". In any case, calling an "OT" post "off- topic" is REDUNDANT. John Doe <always.look@message.header> wrote:> Off topic troll... >

Too many > batteries to keep track of? Then too risky. >They are called cells. A group of cells is called a battery. It was always that way. Even a nine volt battery is a group of small cells. Individual cells like C cell or D cell or AA or AAA cell got called "battery" by idiots in the '60s and beyond until Webster finally "adopted" battery as meaning any DC power source. Another place where America's folks got the dumbed down version and now they are all that way. But in this case... These are individual cells arrayed together to form a battery. And individual cells can be and likey are temperature monitored but likely would not "let you monitor" it. It is internal. Part of the charge/discharge "watchdog" circuitry.

There is no such thing as an individual battery. The two terms are mutually exclusive. Bwuhahahahahhahahha!
