Compatiable BMS for Cerbo

I am building a 16S 3.2.volt 280 AH battery pack and want the Cerbo GX to be read its data. Is there a 3rd part BSM that I can buy to manage my new battery pack and provide dat to to Cerbo GX?

My driver currently supports the LLT\JBD BMS and the Daly BMS (not the 2/3S version yet, but for 16cells it will be fine). If you still need to buy a BMS then I would suggest the JBD over the Daly, but both will work.

Hi @bjmccoy50,

AFAIK the REC-BMS is what you're looking for.

There are also some DIY solutions with optimised drivers for 3rd party BMS. I think it was @Louis van der Walt. More on that in the Modification Space

I currently use the REC Q BMS and have it linked to the Cerbo, MPPT, inverter, and bmv.

This is all with a Nissan Leaf house battery in a camper van.
