Just a power supply. Reading Dodgydave's comments above leads me to believe that i can connect a power supply (AC Adapter) in parallel with the bms and my amp (load) and that would supply the voltage to charge the batteries and run the amp. And that the bms would cut off power to the batteries when they were fully charged and also cut the batteries off when they are "drained" so that the amp can run off of the power supply. I am trying to understand all of this before i attempt my build and any soldering. I sure do appreciate all your help Perhaps i am going about this all wrong and there is a better solution? I have watched numerous YuTube videos on bluetooth boombox builds and they all use some kind of li-ion battery pack with what they are calling a "charging circuit" and there is only a DC power jack on the build for a 12 volt power supply.Do you have a charger for the batteries, or just a power-supply?
It sounds like you are using a laptop supply, which would expect a charge-controller inside the laptop: in this case, you must furnish that.
Apologies if I missed something, but I didn't see any mention of a proper lithium-battery charging circuit.
