So I'm interested in adding a bank of capacitors to help reduce the initial load on my batteries when accelerating from a stop but my current set up uses regenerative braking. My electrinics are this order, Motors, VESC, BMS, 10s5p Li-ion pack. If I add capacitors between the bms and vesc to supply the initial burst of energy needed for take off would regenerative breaking cause an over charging issue if let's say braking down a long hill? Or would the extra power flow back to the battery once the caps are full? Just trying to understand a little more, thanks for any help.
