Does anyone have any enclosure recommendations for either the JK or ANT BMS-es? Can you post links?
Not a huge issue here in SoCal but it would be nice to have them protected from road grime and/or moisture from getting washed etc.
Thanks

Need to measure the JK’s but I was thinking something like this, cut a hole is each end for the B+ and B- and one in the side for the cell leads, then silicone up the holes.
Hello,
I used these for the Orion BMS in the Voltronix Lithium Ion battery kit upgrade I developed: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/bud-industries/PN-1325-C/439747

I have seen these in action on a few @MikeKC AC builds. They work great. Would like to talk with @mikekc on the phone about some ideas I have for these. Call a brother.
Unless your area is different than mine, I do not recommend a sealed enclosure.
Changes in temperature and humidity here will suck moisture into the box. I have not had issues using a “roof” rather than a box.

Cut the corner off a ziplock bag, slip the bms inside, tape the corner closed with mounting tape
The tape is thick & soft & will conform to the wires
Air tight, I seal my Ipod like this & use ear plug head phones & swim with the rig
The failure is the ziplok tears from opening to charge
