Hey Guys,

I'm currently planning to build my first 12V 60AH LiFePO4 battery.
The battery is planned to work as a utility battery (air/diesel heater, lights, charge smartphones...) inside a small vw bus.
Therefor i'm planning to load the battery with a votronic 1212-30 B2B charge booster.
The charging current of these booster is 30A.
As i was looking for a capable BMS which is not overpriced i was stumbling accross this forum.
I would like to use a Daly BMS, but i'm a little bit confused about how to find the correct one,
and therefor i have some questions where i hope you guys can help me with.

1. The Daly 18650 with a rating of 60A states that it's charge current is 30A. Should I consider to take a different BMS because of my charing current will always be the max the bms can handle (overheating...)?
2. Which Daly BMS would you recomment to me for my setup (12V/60AH Winston LiFeYPO4/Votronic 1212-30)
3. Is it nessesary to use a seperate charge/discharge port bms because of the b2b booster, so that it wont be fried up when the bms shuts down the battery, or is this not possible?
4. If i would use a daly bms with a rating of 100A or more, does this only indicates that the max output current the bms can handly is 100+ Amps, so it should be save to use in my environment?

Thanks in advance and sorry for grammatical errors/words/spellings, english is not my native language.

Greetings from germany
