    Open source BMS for 48V to 400V lithium-ion battery pack

    Sorry for the late reply, but we are not really active anymore on this forum. Maxkgo has tried to reverse engineer some of our previous hardware designs and are now selling their own hardware based on what they have learned at doing so. The ENNOID-BMS platform has greatly evolved since the...

    Open source BMS for 48V to 400V lithium-ion battery pack

    You can email me if you have technical question like this. I think it is already quite clear from the reference.

    It is possible to use the CAN bus to get discharge current from connected VESC. Otherwise, no it is not possible, XLITE is a charge BMS and the charge port cannot really be used as a discharge port.

    Open source BMS for 48V to 400V lithium-ion battery pack

    It is something possible to develop, but not in the immediate future. A year maybe from now. Things can be done faster if you are a company willing to pay for faster development and need a custom board for one of your product.

    Firmware version V6.00 is using only lowest cell voltage for SOC. Coulomb counting has been disabled for this release even on discharge BMS. I will bring back coulomb couting as an option for next firmware version.

    SOC method is the same in V6.00 firmware for all boards. Issue with using two xlite is related to charging. You basically need two charger, one for each XLITE/half of the pack. This is not ideal. Everything else would likely work just fine. Ideally an XLITE-30/XLITE-36 would be better solutions...

    Open source BMS for 48V to 400V lithium-ion battery pack

    I haven't yet experimented with two XLITE-V3 over CAN bus yet, but yes that is likely the way to go with a 26S pack. XLITE-V3 now has an isolated CAN bus IC and a Bluetooth module which are now fully integrated with VESC ecosystem( CAN & BLE). VESC mobile over Bluetooth is very nice for BMS...

    Open source BMS for 48V to 400V lithium-ion battery pack

    This is why I'm not jumping in this stuff. It just looks like an infinite list of unobtainable requirements... I will start only implementing CAN bus protocols for now and slowly ramp up new features oriented toward solar/energy storage

    Open source BMS for 48V to 400V lithium-ion battery pack

    I'm just asking for what is the inverter/charger that should be supported first via CAN bus or modbus with link toward their protocol and product...

    Open source BMS for 48V to 400V lithium-ion battery pack

    Eventually I will offer something more specific to solar/storage, but I don't really have enough experience with solar yet. I installed solar panels for first time at home this year and I'm planning to add some storage capacity eventually and start playing with the idea. I'm not living in an...

    Open source BMS for 48V to 400V lithium-ion battery pack

    Yes, those batrium system seems to be better oriented toward solar/storage application. The web app user interface is nice for remote viewing and wifi is included. Their hardware seems to offer quite a large cooling capacity for balancing large packs. The BMS hardware presented in this thread...

    Open source BMS for 48V to 400V lithium-ion battery pack

    The SS is not intended to be a single port BMS it has separate charge & discharge paths. -There is only one UART, use CAN instead. -Yes I2C can be used for IO expension - Using 2 OZ in copper at least for enabling higher current - Some high power surge wirewound resistor do exist for...

    Open source BMS for 48V to 400V lithium-ion battery pack

    Do a manual firmware update with the binary on the website. XLITE firmware was previously common for both hardware XLITE-24 and XLITE-12. Now they each have their own dedicated default with those new firmwares. You still have a few things missing I guess using the EVAL board unless you have...

    Nice! Using SPI directly instead of ISOSPI? Only one slave board is possible in this configuration.

    All registers & peripherals are exactly the same?
