It would work great for your setup, its very inexpensive, and I use some other premade circuits so there is less custom work and less programming.
I used the BMS on my PHEV kit that I had on my last Prius. The charging protection worked great. Unfortunately, I never got around to working all the quirks out of the discharge protection, but its really a lot less necessary if you just get an amp hour counter. |
I saw the thread when you just brought it up. Looks good. But I'm second guessing myself and I don't think I'm in the mood now or have the patience to put one together. I'm losing my nerves.
I'm getting kind of frustrated at this point because I can't seem to find a BMS that will work without going the DIY route. Any other suggestions?
