Hi,
I would like to buy a SimpBMS.
With or without additional accessories
Every solution interests me.
Thanks in advance,
Norbert

Hello Tom,

I know, that the old Teensy board is unreachable, and so the SimpBMS is out of stock everywhere. I saw the EVS-BMS product, but do I understand right, that the software of these modules are not opensource anymore? So if I buy one, I can not modify it, just through sneding request to you ...

Hello Tom,
Thank you very much for your reply.
I am using a DUE, so I had to "port" your code. I have copied the whole sending function, with all test-cycles.
And I immediately receive tons of reply frames, but bad IDs.
When I changed the "asking" command to 0x10 instead of the 0x50, I received ...

Hello,

I have a complete BMW i3 120Ah battery pack made in 2021, and I try to communicate with the slave modules, using the knowledge from Tom's code: https://github.com/Tom-evnut/BMWI3BMS .
The "triggering" of the communication works, because I do receive response CAN frames.
But the ID of them is ...

Thank you very much!

Great news thank you very much!

I guess, these commands are not the same, as for the PHEV, right?
Can you give me some more info about them?

Thank you very much in advance.

Hi,

Is it possible to command the SME / Safety Box of an i3, using CAN?
(Similar to the solution from Damien with the BMW PHEV SBox)

Does they use the same circuit in the boxes?

The connector on the i3 cable has 2x8 pins
Edit: 2x6pins has the white connector.

Thank you

yes, the Leaf battery construction is not a success story :)
7 samurais decided to develop an EV battery without cooling.
And if the battery doesn't need cooling, then why bother with temp sensors?
There would be no problem, if they would been successfull.
But they failed...
At least 3 times ...

Some cells are stacked in the original pack as well. I think the force pressing them together with bolts is higher than the gravimetrical force when stacking them.

True.
But those cells are dying the most often.
Of course it's not easy to decide, that this position or the accumulating heat is ...

What a great offer...
Damn I can't buy it now...

I'm trying to ask the price of the 54kWh pack, but no response...

Just a note: meanwhile I have found posts from Dala, and seen a info page on Thunderstruck.com, both talks about 425V as maximum.
However, it's a nice fact, that it can live with more too (raine's car)...

I have 108S pack in my setup and has been fine for a year and 20.000+ km’s. It is full 9 module ID.3 pack. Running stock Leaf 110kW inverter with Resolve-EV and Simpbms. And max voltage is 450+ volts.

Thank you very much
So the inverter and the motor can handle over 410V. Great.
Did you ever ...

I would say max voltage for your normal OEM inverter is 400Vdc or maybe 410Vdc. Any more and inverter will stop generating PWM.
I would say OEM inverter has overvoltage protection which will protect it. DIY inverters usually would burn though...


Then your ID based pack can use only 8 modules ...

Hello guys,

I have read on the ZombieVerter wiki page, that the inverter needs minimum 180V to start.

Does anybody know, what is the maximum voltage?

Will I fry the inverter, if I use a PSA 50kWh pack, which has 108s config, instead of the 96s?

(It has 18 modules, each 6s2p, so if I remove 2 ...

I was very happy, when read, that the communication with the slave BMS boards is possible.
So I am really considering to buy a Corsa pack.

What do you now about the reliabilty of this pack?
What is the typical degradation of them?
How risky is pack with 60k kms done?

Thank you very much in ...

I'm curious, what is amber's solution you mention?

Arber=arber333 an "old fellow" here, he has already converted a 406 Coupe to electric.
However, his electronics is just for the start, and later I might buy ZombieVerter, or choose other solution... That's not clear now.

I need to decide about ...

The ZE1 drivetrain arrived:

Hello great Community :)

I am very amazed by the knowledge, which can be found in these forums.

I decided to convert my Peugeot 406 Coupe, made by Pininfarina in Turin.
She is from 2005, D9 model, member of the "Ultimate Edition" series. (The last 2.000pieces)

The HDi heart will be ...

62 kWh would also interest me a lot... If you could get any, let me know.
Thank you very much in advance

Sorry to hear that, I have read many of your posts with great pleasure.
(Couple of years ago I also sold every self-converted vehicles in one turn. But now I "somehow" started to build again :) Not at least seeing your converted Toyota. So never say never :) )

If Arber takes the Outlander Heater ...

You are great, thank you!

I have just sent you a PM.

Hello, I have a ZE1 Leaf stack, with complete wiring (fortunately).
The connector at the end of the signal wires looks like this: Can you please help me showing the pinout of this connector?
And where can I buy a mating connector to it?

Thank you in advance

Hello,
what type of battery modules were planned to be used with these plates?

And just for my curiosity: what changes were made in the legislation? Why do you have to give up?
(I want to convert a Peugeot 406 Coupe, here in Hungary, but the legal background is a nightmare since many-many years ...

How many iD3 modules do you have?
What's the price of them?
can you give the BMS wiring also?
Thanks,
