    Even Newer 4 to 24-cell Battery Management System (BMS)

    "The number of connections between the 6s sections and the control board have been reduced to just two, by having the LVC and HVC detection functions share the same opto outputs. This makes total sense as these functions are never used at the same time." Except in the case of regenerative...

    Could someone please direct me to the location in this thread that discusses how the charger current is controlled? Does this require a certain charger type with the proper input? I don't see the mechanism for interfacing between the charger and bms using HVC and PWM. Thanks, Tom

    I plan to use this bms on about 42 Thundersky 160 Ah cells, but I am a bit nervous about overcharging as the charging current during the initial constant current phase will be about 20 to 30 A. I plan to use a Manzanita PFC20 or PFC30 charger which can be set to charge in constant current mode...

    With the newer board, I think you could do 42 series OK. Good! I've been reading through this string and it looks like kits are no longer available, but that boards and a component list are? I haven't found where though. Could someone point me there? Also, is there some documentation on...

    Yes, that would work fine. You just need to connect the six bus wires with small gauge wires. With the latest version, the 12V regulator section is good for more than 100V, so 28-30s LiFePO4 should be fine. So it cannot be used with 42 series cells?

    I just stumbled onto this while searching for a BMS for around 50 series connected 200 Ah LiFePO4 cells from China Battery for an EV. Can I use 3 of these 24 cell or 5 of the 16 cell for this application? Thanks, Tom
