I was looking at charger options. Was looking at Wiki at the outlander charger.
From Wiki : "*at about 397v the DCDC appears to stop operating via the enable lines."
Is this still the same situation ? so not really suitable for fully charged 96s pack ?

Re: Outlander DCDC OBC
It works perfectly with both of my cars.
I keep Mitsu OBC for EVSE communication and Voltage feedback and i have Eltek charger on 2nd phase.
I have 96S cell NMC battery and OBC will charge it up to 398Vdc.... that is 4.12V per cell... where it will drop EVSE CP pin and stop both chargers.
I could have made a circuit to simulate Cp PWM and control EVSE by it thus extending the charge to 410Vdc via Eltek charger, but its too complex.
I consider this a good tradeoff to keep my battery life longer.
EDIT: it does get somewhat imprecise in the end. It will tell 400Vdc in the CAN bus but real voltage is 398Vdc where it ends.
