Comes with it. mom.

I generally just short the pins if needed.

Also a switch on display that can wake up or reset bms. I leave a hole in box for pencil eraser to access switches.

Both power and data are wired thru RJ connectors on yours.

Excellent, Ill figure it all out once its all in my hands. Project boxes got here today and I was planning on putting the power switch for the bms on the outside of the box but if its only a momentary to wake and the display has the same function its not even needed.

</div>

it is the same as the one above except it will do a 10s battery , perfect for you . It will actually do two 10s banks simultaneously . or you can bridge it and it will do 70amps ! This one does not do LTO . The newest one X6 is a 6s and does LTO .

If you buy one get it directly from Progressive Rc , Great pricing and they are the master distributor . They do the warranty work and have good tech support .
