Good news, I finally have a complete Pathfinder BMS on my desk!
Status
I will be putting these up for pre-sale ASAP, but there is still work to do.
At a minimum, the datasheet needs to be finished before pre-sale can start.
After that, the firmware needs to be finished.
These BMSs are capable of OTA online or offline (UF2- drag-n-drop) firmware updates, but we will not ship them until the firmware is fully functional.
Pathfinder BMS feature list:
• 170 amps continuous duty rating.
• M10x1.5 solid brass studs with stainless hardware.
• Screw terminals accept up to 14ga wire for the balance wires. (18ga wire is recommended)
• Works with LTO, NMC, and LiFePO4.
• 3-16 cells LiFePO4 or LTO, 3-12 cells NMC.
• Cell count is field configurable, with various pre-set configurations available. (4s and 16s pictured above).
• Battery voltage up to 64v, and as low as 7v.
• Advanced State-of-Charge monitoring algorithms via a Texas Instruments BQ34Z100 Fuel Gauge chip.
• Positive-side switching (More intuitive, allows a chassis ground to the cell negative)
• Base plate with mounting ears and optional DIN rail mounts.
• 1 amp high current passive balancer built into the base plate.
• Modular open frame design, integrated air cooled copper heat sink.
• 2 external cell temperature probes + 2 internal temperature sensors.
• Wired discharge shutoff switch.
• OLED display and button pad.
• USB-C For wired monitoring and updates.
• Bluetooth and Wifi remote monitoring via optional internet connection.
• Password protection and encrypted wireless data.
• NO user accounts, NO spyware, always free monitoring applications.
Stay tuned, updates will be coming frequently now!
Is this a BMS that can communicate with a Victron system? Thank you very much
Outstanding.
Been a low key customer for a while……..Love me americain made
Cant wait to get my hands on three of these units…!!! I have a mountain of Tesla batteries that I want to repurpose..
Any rough idea when these will be available to the public?
