If you get an answer let me know. I know people I could ask but things change so much in the industry its hard to keep up with it and many of them hold stuff close to the vest for a competitive edge.

“If you get an answer let me know.”

Ping me in a few weeks. Relatives flying in tomorrow and a two week cruise Saturday.

The Tesla Plaid pack uses 7,920 18650 cells arranged in 5 modules that have a 72P22S arrangement each (total of 72P110S). Same BMS system as Model 3/Y. It is capable of sustained 2300A output at a max voltage of 462V (That’s over 1 megawatt).

22 cells in series gives about 80 v. charging voltage is 4.2.

4.2v x 22S x 5 modules = 462v.

If they are using best practices all cells are interconnected.

For a module you would have a 22 in series and every cell in the string would be connected in parallel with 71 other cells.

From a photo I saw it looked like there was a bus bar going across the 72P and the cells were connected to the busbars by what Tesla calls cold bonding.

I see some info on a Tesla 96 cell module. Each cell has voltage but only 32 have Temps. Looks like a 6S16P configuration.

Here is a screenshot of a 6S16P module. A poster said T1 and T2 were cells but I am thinking coolant Temps.
