Time for the CAN bus. This is nothing more than a simple communication system between the BMS and other components. I will be wiring mine for now with just the BMS, Current sensor and monitor, in that order, on the CAN bus. I may add a CAN bus controlled charger later. A couple of things to keep in mind is that the BMS may be looking for things on the bus in a specific order and you must use a termination resistor or VM3 monitor (termination resistor is installed) to tell the BMS that's the end of the line.

Order 3 meters of 22awg Belden 8723 twin shielded twisted pair wire per install if running the monitor to the dash. I get mine from ZEVA when I order the BMS, his cable prices are reasonable.
