Li-Ion Battery Management Systems - resources

As you know, the Texas A&M team lost by a razor thin margin this year.
Arguably, if their car had had a Li-Ion BMS, they would have gotten enough extra points in the Design portion of the contest to win.

Looking for a BMS for next year's competition? Here is a pretty complete list of all the commercially available Li-ion BMS out there:

For example, one of those BMS, from EV Works, is quite cheap yet effective; the North Carolina team had one.

Thanks for the links, but it's Texas A&M. The University of Texas is another school entirely (and no one really likes them hahaha).
