I am currently trying to build my own BMS. The reason why is that I cant find any suitable products that allow custom cell ranges and networked communications that are not Bluetooth. I need WiFi or Ethernet capabilities. I posting this thread for other peoples ideas of what a BMS should include.
My requirements
1. Network connectivity
2. Data logging each cells voltage
3. Active balancing
4. High and low voltage cut off
5. Temperature cut offs
6. High amp capabilities around 200
please if you have any ideas what such a system should include post them here.
if you know of a commercial product for less than $200.00 post that here as well.
Im figuring I could make something that works for around $100.00 from my experimentation so far.
The thing is if I build this thing I dont want to be wishing I had added additional features when its completed.
My end goal is to make a DIY solution that anybody can make on their own.
