Replacing the internal fuse with a breaker? Finalising the Seplos-JK BMS-swap!
We are doing it my friends! Today, I'm going to finalise the 'easy and quick' BMS swap from the Seplos BMS to the JK BMS. I would have not expected that this upgrade would take that long... But, it is a lot of work, not only re-designing the front panel with some 3D printed frames, holders and mounts but also the cabling takes quite a bit of time. I had to shorten the display cable and also solder the balance cables to the existing JST connectors of the Seplos PCBs.
OK, I must admit, it took a bit longer because I also replaced the internal fuse of the Seplos box with a DC breaker. The fuse is good, the breaker is better as it also serves as a switch.
Eventually, I got it all working and together and it actually does not look too bad... What do you think?
