Bleh, I just overcharged last night. I Plugged in and forgot about it. A few hours later I went out and the pack was 57.7V, both balancer alarms were going off, and I'm sure some of the cells were very high. Its really time to get this thing running.

So, this weekend I finally collected the components for the PHEV disconnect. I got my solid state relay as well as a 5V power supply with some tab connectors which will be very easy to use. These both came from a friend of mine who runs a salvage company. Pics of the components and install to come tonight unless something comes up.
