Description
The 3S 10A 12.6V 18650 Li-ion Lithium Battery BMS Protection Board is designed for battery packs made from three lithium-ion cells connected in series (3S). It provides essential protection and battery management functions to help protect the connected cells during charging and discharging.
This BMS board is suitable for 18650, 26650, and compatible 3.6V/3.7V Li-ion or lithium polymer battery cells. A 3S battery pack has a nominal voltage of approximately 11.1V and reaches 12.6V when fully charged, making this module suitable for a wide range of rechargeable battery projects.
The board provides protection against conditions such as overcharge, over-discharge, excessive current, and short circuits. It is a practical solution for DIY battery packs, portable electronics, LED lighting, small electric projects, and other applications requiring a protected 3S Li-ion battery pack.

Important Wiring Instructions
Correct wiring is essential when installing this 3S BMS board. Connect the three cells in series and follow the board’s wiring diagram carefully.
The connection points correspond to the battery voltage levels:
0V → 4.2V → 8.4V → 12.6V
Incorrect wiring can damage the BMS protection circuit.
After connecting the battery pack, the board may require an initial charging activation before the output becomes available.
Battery Matching Recommendation
For reliable operation, use three cells with similar capacity and internal resistance. Avoid mixing old and new cells or batteries with significantly different capacities or conditions.
For best results, use properly matched 18650 or 26650 Li-ion cells from the same type and specification.
