Thinking of using two main contactors both with pre-charge relays. One controlled by the Curtis controller and the other controlled by the Emus BMS. Placing the Curtis controlled power contactor on the positive cable and the Emus BMS power contactor on the negative cable.

Any thoughts, good, bad, otherwise?

OK, So I have abandoned the idea of two main contactors. The EMUS BMS has a circuit to cut power to protect the batteries. They recommend connecting it to the main power contactor. I don't like that idea either. HPEV recommends connecting it to the throttle switch to cut battery output.
I am not using a clutch switch and thought that might be a good circuit to control batteries.


Any suggestions on using the EMUS BMS to control battery load?
