Definition of BMS?

[boom]

Is the definition of "BMS" consistent across the industry? It seems that some products marketed as "BMS" include charging and balancing features, while others strictly refer to protections (thermal, overcurrent, under-voltage, etc). Are some retailers misusing the term?

For "BMS" = Battery Management System - yes, there are a wide range of Management/Control System Feartures that can be implemented. No - the eBike Space does not have a unified industry feature definition.
