[EVDL] Bottom balancing batteries

[John Titman via EV]

Hello all: I am a newby so, bear with me . I have converted my 1965 Ford
Falcon  to an all electric vehicle with an HPEVS AC51  motor with a Curtis
1239e controller,
an Orion2 BMS . I've fitted 48- 271 Ah  3.2 volt batteries and am
experiencing
battery balance problems . I am in the process of bottom balancing the
batteries but, I'm not sure how critical the bottom voltage should be after
discharging. Do they all need to be exactly 2.5 volts ?The battery voltage
keeps jumping up to about 2.51 to 2.54 volts after numerous  discharging.

Those caveats pretty much sum up my daily driving experience in Northern 
Virginia.
