  "textContent": "A multi-cell battery apparatus is provided, according to certain aspects, including a battery with a plurality of voltage-stacked battery cell circuits (102a, 102b), a switchable resistive-divider circuit (105) and a control circuit (104). The control circuit selectively activates the switchable resistive-divider circuits and, in response to the respective switchable resistive-divider circuits (105) being selectively activated, the control circuit measures the controlled-load voltage drops. These aspects are used to allow open load detection without interfering with the cell balancing mechanism and the accuracy of the redundant measurements performed on these pins in a battery management system.",
