This is my first time setting up a solar system and I have run into an issue of trying to pick a BMS for a Tesla model S lithium battery. It’s the battery that at full charge is 25.2 V. From what I can understand online I need a 6S BMS. My other components are four, 345W solar panels that will be in parallel, an MPPT 60 amp controller 24V, and 3000 W inverter for 24v to 120v. I think the problem I am having most though is picking out the BMS and understanding what amperage it should be rated. Also my major reason for having the BMS on the battery is not so much for balancing out the battery but as a prevention method to prevent the battery from catching fire. So I am not looking for something like an $$$ BMS but rather something under $100 that will do the job for this. Below is a BMS I found online that might be for something like this? Can someone who has worked with these batteries and attached a BMS please give me some advice on this. ![A1AD86D7-B68A-4B2C-9918-6C7DF0B0644E.jpeg A1AD86D7-B68A-4B2C-9918-6C7DF0B0644E.jpeg](https://diysolarforum.com/data/attachments/34/34071-62df7d40409ee884475d79494989bb8a.jpg)
