I have no hands on experience yet (just received my Overkill BMS''s 2 wks ago and still awaiting cells). According to the manual, Cuts off discharging when ANY cell drops under trigger value (2.5V). Reconnects discharging when ALL cells rise above Release value (3.0 V).. Gazoo Dumb Dumb. Joined May 12, 2020 Messages 2,798 Location

I created open source software for the JBD BMS.
I have a complete test setup ready to go, including a Overkill Solar 8A 24V BMS, with an 8 cell lithium battery pack. I have 2 huge LFP battery packs in my old GM bus, and I''d like to be able to send the BMS data to a RPi, using MQTT protocol.

The polling rate of the data being requested from the BMS can be changed, using the bms.set_query_rate() method. Simply provide it with an integer period time, in miliseconds. There is an example in the section below. If the BMS is not responding, then the method bms.get_comm_error_state() will return true. If it is responding and outputing

New OFFICIAL Bluetooth apps (open Beta) – Overkill Solar
Tried to scan for device from 10-feet away but it does not detect any of the the 4 Overkill Solar BMS. However, the Xiaoxiang, BeLYEnergy and BAT-BMS app detects all 4. Is there a user manual or TS guide? Reply. overkillsolar. November 18, 2022. Try toggling the bluetooth scan on and off. Some Android devices behave differently.
16s BMS 100a for LifePo4 with 12″ 8ga Wires – Overkill Solar
Main metric I use to prove the quality of this unit is the lack of voltage drop across BMS when checking total battery voltage. The daly bms read 9.6v for a 4 cell 12v DIY battery which is >13v when bypassing the daly bms. Overkill showed no loss at all. Bluetooth works great. Haven''t tried usb PC connection yet.
Overkill Solar BMS Balancing current?
i have paralleled 3 24v overkill solar BMS together with 3 sets of batteries @100AH and they balanced each other while i watched using blue tooth monitors went across all batteries.very cool. then i charged them all at once and it worked fine. gonna add another battery pack for a set of 4.
How does an Overkillsolar BMS work with a SmartSolar MPPT
I''m building an off-grid ESS for my cabin and I have a 280 AH 24V LiFePO4 battery with an Overkillsolar 24V 100 Amp BMS. I''m using a SmartSolar MPPT 150/35 charge controller. So my question is this: Who is in charge of charging? The BMS is an impressively capable device with a lot of intelligence and will manage the batteries just fine on its own.
New BMS current ratings – Overkill Solar
We built (3) 16s-48v battery banks in service now with the old Overkill BMS, works great. We have 48 more cells ready to top balance & put together. Like the specs of the NOMAD with the cooling fan. We will take 3 when they are ready! Reply. Richard Harris. September 13, 2024.

About cell balancing : r/OverkillSolarBMS
Yes, the BMS has a built-in balancing function. HOWEVER no, it is not capable of doing an initial balance on new cells.. The balancer works by connecting a tiny bleed resistor to the cells with the highest voltage, and the excess energy in those cells turns into waste heat. This is a slow process. The intention is that the BMS can maintain the balance on the cells as they slowly drift

16s BMS 100a for LifePo4 with 24″ 8ga Wires – Overkill Solar
Overkill BMS is the best! Bought (16) New Grade A 3.2v 280ah EVE Cells, working with another BMS & just couldn''t keep the cells balanced. Took them apart to top balance 3 times, just wouldn''t work right. Tired of messing with it I contacted Overkill & told them my plans. E-mailed back & said their BMS would absolutely would work with my system.

Overkill Solar Review
Overkill solar: Found the BMSes I bought from them for 1/2 the $130 elsewhere. Those BMSes (24V 8S BMS) do only the BSMing well. Their advertised balancing is pathetic taking probably a year or more to balance a battery with ~180Ahr cells.

Does JBD have a new BMS?
JBD has new models available, but we have rejected all of their offerings for various reasons, mostly due to the complete lack of security on their built-in bluetooth connection. The new BMS is named The Pathfinder BMS by Overkill Solar. It is entirely designed in America by Overkill Solar, and programmed mostly in Canada.
Does the Overkill solar BMS limit the current?
Yes, the Overkill Solar BMS limits the current to the settings programmed into the BMS. For example, the Overkill BMS I use is 8s 24volt 100amp, which limits the current to 100 amps for both charging and discharging. The manual advises the use of a secondary Over current protector or disconnect device.
What happens if you don't use a BMS?
A: B elow on the left is a picture from one of our customers that wasn’t using a BMS. It was over-charged, which creates gasses, and can cause the outer case to bulge (this kills the battery). One of the jobs of a BMS is to prevent overcharging. 6.
