Hello!
I have a small home storage and try to choose a new BMS for it.
My previous BMS was JK, and it does not work good.
So now I want to try another vendor - JBD.
My setup is 24v pack of 8 EVE 280Ah LiFePo4 batteries. Hybrid inverter is 3200W rated and has max 60A charge current and near 130A for discharge.
So I looked at the 150A Smart BMS.
I am looking for two models - SP24S004 and AP21S001.
I tried to compare their differences using documentation, but it doesn't help much because I don't know which of them are the most important for my case.
It seems slightly weird that more cheaper have +2 thermal sensors.
Also what interface is better CAN, 485 or UART (isolated or non-isolated)?
Is 'History storage' is useful option?
Maybe here there are owners of one of these or people who use similar options.
