How much current are your regulators able to bypass?
600 mw.
Did you mean 600 milli-AMPs? 600 milli-WATTs would be an insignificant
amount of current for balancing: 600mw / 4v = 150 milliamps.
What kind of charger do you have? Does is have any means of controlling
the current already that you can tap into or control?
nope. 70 volt 5 amp charger.
certain bulbs like small 12 volt motorcycle turn signal work, but once the
voltage gets up to the point of finish balancing/shunting then it drops the
voltage too low.
If your shunt regulators are bypassing 600ma when on, then you would
want something like a tail light to limit your charging current to 600ma
or less (while balancing). But you can short out this light while bulk
charging (while none of the shunt regulators are on).
