This looks great.

Am I right in thinking that the VCU combines the functions of the MCU and the BMS?

I have a BMW battery pack and the outlander rear motor, rear inverter and charger.

Thanks

Hi all,

Thanks for the advice. ESP 32 would be my preference I suppose given their price, availability and, if I remember correctly, I think the teensy 4.1 can be somewhat fragile?

Cheers

Hi all,

I've sat around for so long (aot93 very kindly provided me with some boards) that I've hit issues getting hold of a 3.2 for the BMS.

Is anybody working on a BMS using a 4.1 or perhaps ESP32 which I could try to muck in with?

This is great news!

Thanks for the confirmation and the prompt reply!

Cheers

This thread is fascinating. I've just started on my journey and am looking at a very similar build transplanting outlander gear into a fwd car. Quick question at a high level. My first big purchase has been a 12kw battery pack from a 330e. Does anyone foresee issues using this higher voltage battery...
