Trophy battery

[MCB]

I did a bonehead move on a new 48v Trophy battery. I used a small screwdriver to push the reset button, (instead of the correct tool supplied), and broke the switch. I called Dan, he told me to go ahead and open it up, I did, and switch is broke. I need to find the correct switch so I can de-solder the old switch and solder the new switch in. I would call Dan back, (super nice guy by the way), but I can tell he is quite busy. I can't even tell what the parameters are for finding this switch. I did look at digikey electronics, but no luck for an idiot like me. Bottom line, need part numbers for a new switch or a new BMS

Call Trophy back and see if you can just get a replacement control board, no soldering required and less risk of bricking your battery.

I don't have a problem de-soldering and installing a new switch.

call trophy, or buy a new one from seplos, as this is 1000% a 100 amp canbus bms

seeing and confirming this also makes me wonder why trophy isnt supporting sol-ark closed coms, as this works

 

[MCB]

I'm kinda old school, component level is not a problem, if I can find the right part. If I have to, I'll order a new BMS, but I'd rather not. I already told Dan my boneheaded move with the tiny screwdriver.

 

[MCB]

I did check Seplos, 125.00 for new BMS

I did check Seplos, 125.00 for new BMS

and you'll get an updated version, with optional bluetooth and android app

 

[MCB]

Interesting, I'll have to talk with Dan about it. Thanks

 

[MCB]

You can't get better support from a dealer. Just got off phone with Dan and he's checking switches or a new BMS. Seplos won't work, but I'll find out tomorrow which part I'm gonna get. My ex wife is a trained electronics tech back in the day when it was Siemens/Nixdorf, and she has offered to help. She did tell me that I wouldn't have a problem if I got the correct switch.

 

[MCB]

Here is an interesting tidbit. I know the switch has a tiny spring, and I haven't found it yet. Needless to say, I also told Dan about it. That spring needs to be found, lol.

I need to apologize to Will. I finally found where to de-activate the email notification.
It is under account preferences for anyone like myself who doesn't know.

Trophy’s have 200a BMS’s on everything over their 100 Ah batteries.

Zoom in on the second pic I posted, specifically the white tag, and you might re-evaluate your response.

 

[MCB]

My bad, you said everything except the 100amp batteries

She did tell me that I wouldn't have a problem if I got the correct switch.

I would guess it is either a normally closed or a normally open switch. Once you figure that out, the correct switch could be wired to those two contacts.
EDIT: On closer inspection, there may be three contacts but I cannot tell from the picture.

I'm assuming with 6 contacts thru the board it is a single throw, double pole switch.

Here is the other side of board

so , buy the 200a version

nope, here's a picture of both my canbus 200a version ( 10c ) and rs485 200a version.
take a peek at the white labels and layout.

dan might not even know this are seplos's, but they are

While I was searching yesterday, the heating pad plays a part in the selection process. There are more tiny wires involved on the BMS board than a regular 16S that I am familiar with. The obvious, easiest, solution is a new board. Dan is aware of my capabilities, and I am leaving the decision up to him if he finds the correct parts. I was trying to fix my screw up on my own yesterday, but after talking with him yesterday evening, I think he has parts in their warehouse. I'll find out this morning at a more decent business hour. I should reiterate how Dan is going above and beyond when it was totally a customer mistake.
