No, the resistor will reduce the current but will not restrict the voltage. If you charge through a resistor, keep a record of the battery voltage and stop charging when 14,4V is reached, If the battery has been over discharged it may be necessary to use a high voltage to change the electrolyte from high resistance water to acid.

Now, you don''t have to wait for hours for the battery voltage to stabilize in order to adjust the float charge voltage. Connect the ups, wait until self test has finished and disconnect the batteries. Then measure across the battery terminals at the UPS. This information applies to the Smart UPS 700XL and 1400/1500 types.

Don''t make suggestions if you have no idea what you''re doing... a resistive voltage drop is current dependent. Assuming the charger is CC-CV, OP needs a cureent independent voltage drop. Diodes are not a bad shout, a zener will probably be more stable, and 2A current isn''t a huge amount, so shouldn''t be too difficult to find.

The bulk charge voltage is the initial high voltage applied to quickly charge the battery. The value depends on the battery type and voltage. For example, a 12V flooded battery might have a bulk charge voltage of around 14.4V. (b) Float Charge Voltage. The float charge voltage is the voltage applied after the battery reaches its full charge.

To charge the battery, the buck converter is enabled while the first-stage voltage Op Amps and current-sense INA are used to measure battery voltage and charging current of the battery cell or battery pack.
Battery balancing works by redistributing charge among the cells in a battery pack to achieve a uniform state of charge. The process typically involves the following steps: Cell monitoring: The battery management system (BMS) continuously monitors the voltage and sometimes temperature of each cell in the pack.
Cell balancing: The individual battery pack cells need to be monitored and balanced to redistribute charge between cells during charging and discharging cycles. Temperature monitoring: The individual cell temperatures and battery pack temperatures at several locations need measuring to ensure safe operation with maximum efficiency.
Without balancing, when one cell in a pack reaches its upper voltage limit during charging, the monitoring circuit signals the control system to stop charging, leaving the pack undercharged. With balancing, the Battery Management System (BMS) continuously monitors voltage differences and upper voltage limits.
The process typically involves the following steps: Cell monitoring: The battery management system (BMS) continuously monitors the voltage and sometimes temperature of each cell in the pack. Imbalance detection: The BMS identifies cells with higher or lower charge levels compared to the average.
