According to the BOM of the VESC it is the second one: 595-DRV8302DCA
They are both the same part, different packaging.

Purchased a 8s 60A Batterysupport BMS and 24 LG HG2 li-ion cells for a 8s3p battery. Wondering if this BMS diagram I drew is correct?

Thank you so much! I was pretty confused by the diagram Batterysupport provided 
Looking good
Started working on this thing again for the past 2 days. Ordered the remaining parts a week and a half ago. I should finish for sure within the next two weeks. I’m leaving tomorrow on vacation though. Was aiming to finish the board so I could take it but my 3d printed chaka cell holders have yet to come 
I started the project almost a year ago and I here to FINISH!
8s4p with chaka style cell level fuses and I have a psychotiller 405 enclosure. Also ordered a benchwheel remote.

Using hg hg2 cells but probably should have gone with Samsung Q30 but oh well…
HG2 are better than 30Q. 30Q are only preferred because they are cheaper.
You sure according to this website which I believe you link. http://lygte-info.dk/review/batteries2012/Common18650comparator.php 30Q seem to preform better than hg2 cells. Or am I reading it wrong?
The 30Q have less sag but get hotter than the HG2. Just look at the 20A discharge and you can see that the 30Q test had to be aborted earlier than the HG2 one due to heat. Since you will most probably not use this type of current continuously the 30Q might be considered better - however higher temperature also means shorter life of your pack.

Almost done with the battery. Just need to connect the balence leads and charger. Also I had to make 8 of the cell holders out of wood cause 3d hubs refused to print my second order claiming the cell holders could not be printed. Anyways got it all working. Picture!

One question. I have a battery support BMS and was wondering if I could connect a switch to these 2 pads on the bms? I read somewhere in the forum that it could potentially be used as an e-switch like on a bestech bms.
