The official VESC/ Fungineers BMS - Now in a drop-in GT form!
This BMS is a drop-in BMS for OW GT conversion. Just take out the existing BMS from the 18S GT battery and drop this in. The VESC GT BMS can communicate via CAN and Bluetooth/ WIFI, and can later be separated from the adapter and put in an upgraded 20S or greater battery!
The official VESC x Fungineers BMS:
For the first time ever, THE Benjamin Vedder, inventor of the VESC ('V' in VESC stands for Vedder) and his team have collaborated on any Funwheel/Single-wheeled/ Balance-wheel product. The VESCxFUN BMS or VFBMS32
We collaborated with Benjamin and team to design an official VESC BMS for the balance wheel world. There are 3 primary reasons that we undertook this endeavor and improved on our previous smart (Bluetooth-only) BMS.
Improved Safety:
The new charge-only VF BMS talks to your ESC via CANBUS, sending and receiving real-time data and ensuring your ride is within the safe limits. It has multiple ways of warning you, and also induce pushback if configured to do so, yet no way of forcing the board to stop, since its a charge-only BMS. The ability to reliably talk to the ESC is a huge bump in safety and put your Funwheels as the safest boards in the world.
Best-in the world premium quality stuff:
Our motor, the Superflux, and our Controllers, the Thor300 and 400 are the best in the world by a long shot, so why not also make the whole eco system the most premium, bad-ass, and safest combo in the world? This is the reason we collaborated with the Mr. Vedder and team to bring you the best hardware and software, and ensure everything works seamlessly together, and you get the most premium and reliable parts that will keep you on top of your game on any terrain or ride!
Support VESC!
Since Benjamin decided about a decade ago to have VESC as open-source, and free for everyone, there have been 100s of companies that have benefitted from his work for free (including us with our ESCs!), without much monetary attribution in most cases to Benjamin's VESC company. With the official VESC BMS, every BMS you buy, you will be supporting the VESC team directly!
How to connect (new VESC BMS):
Tutorial coming soon.
How to connect(old Bluetooth only smart BMS):
3 connections to be made only: Balance connector from GT, XT60 connectors in and out of the BMS, small MT30 connector from charger, and you're all set!
See full installation tutorial here.
BMS App can be downloaded here:
BMS switches on and connects via Bluetooth once charger is connected to board.
Important:
This will NOT work on a stock GT controller. This is only for people who want to VESC their GT and get rid of stock GT controller and BMS.
Works with other VESC-based controllers also with the right CAN connectors.
