@Raul a/3 I do, however, I ordered the wrong JK BMS as the current one has no CAN-connector, so in due time (end of or next year) I will replace with a CAN-enabled model. It will have to pass through 100A max (=2400W extraction from the battery, delivering +-2000W at the Siemens induction hob).

The cells are fantastic, they'll be inside the van in the first year, up to the moment the prototyping for the heat exchanger is finished and the housing is designed and produced and it will move to its definitive place of domicile, under the van.

You can still get a rs485 module, for that bms, to plug in that socket for monitoring purposes. You can even plug it into a victron GX via rs485 to USB. It brings the battery data to the GX.

On the V19 version with CAN; I would upgrade it ASAP, they do a 200 and 300A.
Reason is, along with CAN it has a solid screw heating terminal, with heat settings and logic built in the bms. It can take care of heating, if you plan the battery for outside. And it uses 4 heat sensors, combined with mos fets temperature. Much more advanced. The version you have now, it is basic plus active balance. Nothing wrong with that, it just makes it more difficult with external hardware to implement the heating.
