The design takes 12s max . Will need quite a bit of layout modifications and firmware + software. I hope Danny will take it on in the future. If not, I will have to find quite a bit of spare time to try.

4th Batch long awaited!
Is it me or does the PCB have less plugs than older versions? - Im kidding, wondering if it’s USB-C though 
(also whats the recomended HeatSink idea - if wanting to use for Charge/Discharge

This one looks promising as a heatsink.

I bought mine from Sam in the batch 2. Still rocking it. No issues.
But everyone using diebiems beware, you must connect the balance terminal to the bms at very last. Otherwise you’ll blow off balance resistors and the FETs. I leaned it the hard way.

Good to mention it.
IMO, the very FIRST step is to put insulate tape (like kapton) on the board.
having a open wire laying down on the components will results in cries.
Learnt from other users experience, done it, and it saves me the DBMS a couple of times !

why not v10.0?
Its on github, gebers and all.
Do you have a link ? Could only find the v0.9

think its in the dev branch, update is only a PFET to bypass the charger diode.
(opened the project in altium)
Read a thread somewhere that danny confirmed that the v10.0 was verified, can’t remember where tho.
Been thinking of sending for a few PCBs and soldering them myself

v0.10 you mean.
This change, ok. However, is the current master FW compatible with this HW version ?
Most efforts seem targeted to eFoil application now.
Master branch didn’t receive any update since Sep 15, 2018
The HW change dsnt affect at all? Unless the FET is enabled via MCU.
Gotta check schematic, hold on.

Can look into v10… Haven’t been able to reach Danny tho.

What is the threshold we need to hit to make this happen?
@Sam If you still making the 200 PCBs, I’d be happy to take 10 of your hands 
I’ll just get the components myself

I am thinking at least 100. Too little, suppliers will likely won’t bother anymore.

Maybe there would be more interest and broader appeal if there was an easily digestible description/overview of the DieBMS and why it’s better than other BMS (explain to me like I’m 5 years old). I read the description from the other forum and it just was way over my head…I only have a vague idea that it is better than other BMS.
