Even the Model 3/Y BMS uses the same tried and true algorithms.
I've read posts suggesting 3 / Y BMS is either simpler, technically more advanced, smarter design than S / X, but also that in some ways it is less sophisticated in its algorithms and doesn't work the same way. Which is the case? Any links to what you think represent accurate info?
