My BMS finally arrives in China.
As the title suggests, my BMS arrived in China (VIVNE), after a week’s stay in HongKong customs. It was reprogrammed on Monday and I’m told by Helen, that it’s being dispatched. I’ve not had tracking information as of yet.
In the meantime:-
After watching VIVNE’s latest customer installation video on YouTube, where they Zinc sprayed the battery box fixing surfaces, I thought that was a great idea. So, another Amazon order for Zinc spray and that was done.
I have also sealed the rubber seal onto the battery case, ready for finally installation. I’ve decided not to use the studs, although I’ve used them to keep the holes clear of sealant, I ordered M6 30mm stainless steel bolts, which will look better.
For those planning this same upgrade, don’t listen to the 7-10 day estimate on eNV-200 BMS reprogramming. Customs in China and HongKong aren’t the fastest and you should allow at least 3 weeks. Better still, obtain another BMS and send that before removing your own battery.
I’ve suggested more than once, that a way to reprogram the BMS remotely, would eliminate the long wait for its return.
So, all I can do now is wait for the BMS to arrive, hopefully before end of this week. I will update you soon 😊.
