LifePO BMS supplier

[Rob James]

Hi all, has anyone found a Canadian distributor of battery management systems for lithium iron phosphate battery cells? I didn't have any luck with the Daly BMS I purchased along w the raw 3.2v cells and would like to try and Canadian supplier if there is one. Thanks!

Rob, interested in building something yourself?
There are lots of open-source BMS projects, from pretty simple for just a few cells, to very very complex for very large battery banks. I just read through a number of the available projects. Interesting stuff!

Well, that would certainly be taking it to the next level. Given I’ve never tried something like that before, not sure I want to start with something that could burn my cottage down. But it’s an interesting option…
