Overview
The JKBMS B1A20S15P is an active balance smart BMS (battery management system) for multi-series lithium battery packs, with built-in Bluetooth monitoring and RS485 communication. It supports Li-ion (7S–20S), LiFePO4 (8S–20S), and LTO (12S–20S), and provides 1A active balancing with 150A continuous charge/discharge capability.
Key Features
- Active balancing: Active Balance (Full State On), balance current 1000 mA (1A).
- High current design: 150A continuous charge current and 150A continuous discharge current; maximum discharge current 300A (MAX 2 min).
- Bluetooth monitoring: Bluetooth built-in; supports Android & iOS phones. Use the specified Bluetooth app to activate the BMS, then search the relevant serial number to view data.
- Communications: RS485 (default). CANBUS/HEAT listed as customized.
- Cell/pack measurement: Single cell voltage range 1–5V (detection range 0–5V); total voltage detection range 0–100V.
- Protection functions: Over charge protection, over discharge protection, over current protection, short circuit protection, over temperature protection, and “all-in protection” (cable drop/poor contact).
- Operating modes (as described): Storage mode (no battery pack current consumption), normal working mode (charging activates), standby mode (auto after set time; 1–30 days can be set), and shutdown (auto when a cell falls below shutdown voltage).

Details

Skip balancing losses and help keep multi‑series packs aligned with an active balancer design for Li‑ion, LiFePO4, or LTO systems.

Built‑in communications options like RS485 (default) support monitoring and integration for higher‑current battery builds.

Layered construction highlights the main control board and connection interfaces used for cell sensing and power handling.

Clear port labeling helps with wiring for RS485 by default, plus optional CANBUS, display (LCD), and heating connections.

Bluetooth monitoring provides real‑time pack stats, cell voltages, and balance current from a phone app on iOS or Android.

Switch chemistry settings, scan for the BMS, and review individual cell readings and wiring resistance in the same app.

A full set of protections covers common fault conditions including over‑charge, over‑discharge, over‑current, short circuit, and over‑temperature.

Multiple operating modes support storage, normal use, standby timing, and automatic shutdown based on low‑cell conditions.

Use the model comparison table to confirm supported series count, balancing current, continuous current rating, and interface options before ordering.
