    Jk bms heat version

    Hi. I'm planning swapping my qucc smart bms to a jk smart heat bms. About the heat output; do the bms start heating ALWAYS if the temp sensor open for heating? Or do the bms ONLY start heating when charging and the temp sensor open for heating? Or is all this adjustable in the settings?

    Qucc bms temperature sensor off

    I stil have'nt found a way to display the battery temp sensor on the main page in the App. It can be seen in the setting, but not on the main. Its the same issue on the external lcd monitor for the bms. I kinda just have to trust the bms doing its job..
