Beginner question - component name

[AlexCee]

Hi guys,

I'm an absolute beginner - this will be my first project so I have basically everything to learn.

Earlier today, a kind soul used his tools to help me figure out the deffective part of a battery pack I want to fix: the circuit which manages the electrical power's strength while charging the pack itself or a device connected to it has a defective part and needs to be replaced. So I want to order a bew circuit online and just solder the batteries and usb ports to it, but I don't remember how you call such a circuit with a built-in load management safety - a three word acronym which stands for something like charge management system.

Can anyone give me the correct name of what I'm looking for?

Thanks!

BMS Battery Management System. I think that is what you are looking for.

You got an answer to your technical question so the answer to your culture/etiquette question is, yes! Welcome.
