Adjustible Constant Current Load Devices

Starting with the more expensive devices.

NHR 9300 Series High Voltage Battery Test System -Regenerative

Aim-TTi LDH400P DC electronic load (161-5840)

Electronic Load – the perfect test solution for dc power sources (AIM)

DIY Load Tester for Batteries and Power Supplies
(Down at the bottom) Fairly elaborate.
Don't know if it will take the current needed 11.25amps.

DIY Simple Variable High Current Load
This might be useful for making a simple constant current device.
There are some good examples.

Using Resistors

Re: Adjustible Constant Current Load Devices

I think already mentioned this for your 6V equalizing, should also be good for LFP balancing and whatever-chemistry charging and load testing even 12V lead.

Completely separate dual channels, but they can be used together for both charging and regenerative discharging.

Does not include an AC power supply, DCDC only as shipped, but likely just fine running off a marine quality shore charger in power supply mode or with a buffer battery on the input side.
