Is it a safety shutoff if you’re on an esk8, and it gets a brownout… now you cant brake anymore 
Shouldn’t it be possible to choose the corresponding safety state of the switch ?
@JTAG First time I see this thread but what you did so far is amazing man, keep up the good stuff! When they’re available for sale I’ll get one for sure 
I got scared and a little bit more cautious due to the recent BB battery fires xD. I is a watchdog controlled safety, so no direct (cell based) voltage switching happening.
Awesome, just got a littel worried, as burning batteries is better than dead skater

when the topic gets too old you can’t change it anymore.
Thanks for the reply, I wanted to update the link to the schematic in the OP, I now fixed it on Github, so no need for an update anymore.
(not towards you but):
I still find it undesired that I cant update posts from the past since I might change specifications a little or would like to make some things clearer. It seams that I have to live with it

I believe its because people already read that before and it’s “kind of unfair” if they read and you change it without the past reader knowing the content has changed. Discourse its a partial blog, so its also weird if you have a past and then you changed that. Than all of the comments / discussions underneath it becomes irrelevant. I dont know how best explained it, but I think you understand what I meant.
it would make sense to refer from in the first post to the postnumber with the updated spec/news. or place a link to the post
Your BMS is on my shopping list.
Will order one, once it is in production and out of beta.
Update on current status? On hold or ?
yeh, post some more info! @JTAG
And also update the topic’s name, please, if it is still possible… The topic was here all the time but only now I managed to read it after @tomtom13 stirred up the situation 
Though… im sure you will create a new topic maybe… once you get to the ‘distribution’ part for these bms’s…
Do you have an estimate how much they might cost per unit?
Just, anybody don’t take my crapy topic as a means of diverting you from @jtag BMS. It has a lot of stuff that I would be looking for in BMS (looks like it has a distribution unit - some people call it soft switch). So it’s a lot better than my crack pipe dream of bms with esp
