In this episode of DIY or Buy we will be having a closer look at BMS or battery management systems. That means I will show you how a commercial BMS is built and how it functions. Afterwards I will then have a look at a DIY BMS project from Stuart Pittaway, build it and test it in order to find out whether you should stick to the commercial BMS or use a DIY one instead. Let's get started!

Cheap and works.

I am hoping to see something eventually come out that is nearly as comprehensive as a Batrium system but more adoptable for smaller projects. One specific need though is for higher current output through any of these BMS solutions at the small side. With the attractive nature of building high capacity portable battery packs, the ability to push a lot of amps is a must have if you also plan to feed the power into an inverter, especially if it is only a 12v inverter. I am starting my first project and have some of the 4s 40 amp BMSs on the way and a dedicated charger like what they sell on Vruzend. Should be sufficient for what I am up to but I am watching and looking at things a lot. Still not seeing that magic solution yet...

When making power bank from parallel batteries I would use Schottky diodes between the common junction and the battery positive to prevent weak battery from pulling down the strong one and thus exhausting / draining the overall power. This also provides protection against defective batteries. I would also use protection circuit (simple one) to prevent over charge and/or protection against accidental short.

I have been experimenting with these type 18650 packs for about a year now. I have built dozens. I use a fused nickel strip on most of mine now, all of them that have more than a few cells in parallel. I accidentally did short one while assembling it and all of the nickel fusable links glowed and melted, it was scary, but spectacular to watch, but it worked and potentially prevented a bigger problem. I just tested the cells and put new fused nickel strip on the top and it was good to go. I wish I had had a camera running. My point is that they are, in my opinion a worthwhile safety feature and insurance policy. For batteries in buildings, I have been building metal boxes for the batteries in case of fire. I do not have such charging and power draw as most of mine are working for small solar power collection and lighting backup. For me, heating of the batteries and thus needing to cool have not been issues. Every once in a while, if I have my thermal camera with me, I will look at them and see if any of them are heating, as they fail they get warmer when heating or cooling. I made some of my first packs from very old salvaged cells as those cells were very cheap to practice many of those cells were on deaths door, so I got to see failure modes. It is a pain in the neck to dissassemble a pack for a failing cell, so I try not to use cells that are too close to failure. I have taken to adding load disconnects and do not charge mine above 4 volts as I am dissatisfied with the BMS performance of the Ebanium and Amazonian varieties I have tried. I would like programmable LVD and HVD, but it seems that unless you build your own they are made out of unobtainium.

Active balancing is quite complicated to implement and drives the cost up significantly. That's why 99.9% of BMS don't have it, including top of the line options such as Batrium. Also if the cells are properly matched, then there should be very little balancing needed so there is little benefit to active balancing.

I've wanted to experiment with using that waste power for something useful, like put all the resistors in one place to create a heater. Or use LEDs instead as a light source. If the cells are charged from solar, then the nearly full battery needed to trigger the BMS balance means soon all the power will be un-used.

spot on with DIY BMS being for powerwalls and such. It seems to have better front end functionality than most of the cheap to midrange BMS units, which are mostly focused on providing BMS functions more than front end features, so you can end up blind on how your batteries are actually doing with most purchased BMS units - which isn't ideal for something that you want to closely and carefully monitor. Meanwhile anything that's portable, you may not care as much about what individual cells are doing, and just need a relatively simple (in terms of features) BMS to keep the cells relatively healthy, and shut down the current flow in the event of something dangerous happening (which you can later check into on a bench). Good stuff, very interesting.

Well, if I understand what he did properly, each of his boards monitors two cells in series for a total of six monitored cells consisting of two chemical cells in parallel on his battery pack. The arduino is then performing data analysis across those boards which mostly seems to be a fancy feature rather than one critical to the role of battery management. In which case, the theoretical upper bound is unlimited for the bms boards and the data metrics have an upper bound of the combination of I/O pins and sampling methods/frequency along with any supporting hardware for I/O multiplexing. I suppose you could then double up on arduino boards and handle the collation of data metrics on the computer application side of things. Which would then push your theoretical limit up into the range of IP addresses your router can handle and this likely exceeds the physical means of most people. You would be well into the multi-kilovolt range by that point and the highest voltage you probably want to work with is 1.2 kilovolts, natively, as that is where most silicon carbide devices start needing to be stacked in series to deal with that. There's very little practical use for home power projects above 1 kilovolt on a power delivery bus. It would actually be rather eccentric by industrial standards as you usually only see voltages above 480 in special equipment and the mains stepped down from the power plant.

Balance discharging is kinda a waste off time. Once a cell/cells have hit the min limit, all other cells will be close to their limit too. Say 1% away. Assuming all the cells are same spec and condition, not a mis match of random salvaged junk. Charge balancing is plenty good to stop the ballance drifting out of hand, and will discharge a tiny bit off ballance and the corrected the next charge.

Hi, thanks for your great Videos! I like them and learned a lot from them. But I would like to comment on two things ins this videos. 1. Your SMD soldering is good but I would recommend you to get some very fine tipped tweezer. When you soldered those bigger packages onto the smaller footprints you need to grab them tight and guided the into the solder. That way you can get a better solder joint and be faster. It looked kind of funny when you tried to poke the in the right direction. 2. Bootloader: A bootloader doesn't program fuses only. (That part I also don't know) But he programs a certain firmware in a special sector of the µC which tells him how to act on certain signals on his pins and where he needs to put this data. Keep up the great work and your great videos! (BTW: I love your handwriting and your drawing skills!)

​@@padmalayarawal3091 Short answer: No. Long answer: It is possible if you have a dedicated and separate ground isolated power supply for each TP4056 and isolate the chargers properly. Another way is to disconnect/take apart your battery pack into single cell modules and charge them separately.

Aren't there simpler DIY BMS's available? No need for all those fancy-pancy super features for a simple home made battery bank.

This is a mismatch, its like a go pro vs dslr both useful cameras with different application, what could have been the comparison should be that BUY vs DIY (of the same build of the buy).

again thanks for another great tutorial, i know there is a difference between chargers for Li-ion and LiFePo, so my question: is there a difference between bms for the Li-ion and LiFePo batteries ???

Hi Scott, can the LiPo battery (RC battery) be charged using the same BMS used for Li-ion?

Hi. One drawback for BMS like these is the available ballancing current. There are so called active ballancers, cheaper and more expensive (which get better feedback from people) but the better ones are like 25usd for 7s. My idea is to use a regular bms for all 'over'-protections on discharge, and to take 7 dc-dc buck cc cv converters, and maybe 7 1S BMSs for extra protection, and make a separate charging "circuit", where I hook up 12V (or whatever buck accepts) as input to ALL buck converters, each of which charges single string to required voltage, and a 1S bms after each dc-dc buck, doing extra safety. This way I can actually get a ballanced battery, with whatever max "ballancing" current is allowed for a single string of cells. It would cost maybe 10-15usd overall. Does it sound ok? And if it does sound OK a DIY BMS could have built in feature like this ;)

Nice review, thanks for sharing :-) about you solding SMD, then try to put the solder on the end of the IC/R/C, and then touch both (solder and solderpad) in a inward direction. 1 place the solder at the end of the IC pin. 2. touch the solderpad and then the solder in one motion, and lift in this manner, you dont get too much solder on the pins of the IC Thanks for sharing :-)

What is missing in both commercial and DIY BMS is the current limiter. Most of the Li-Ion can be charged with only 1-3A and to me it'd make sense to add a current limiter so that it's enough to plug a DC power supply to charge and balance. So you don't need an expensive power supply as yours.
