In Car Computer

To run the Batrium BMS software, and display the pack status, MR02EV has a Windows 10 computer and a computer monitor in the dash. Initially this was an Mini-pc but at about 5 Watts it was quite power hungry and would quickly flatten the AUX 12 volt battery if the DC-DC converter was not running.

I have seen several EV conversions with cheap Windows tablet computers or in-car computers, but I have always liked embedded computers, given my background in industrial automation. So was pleased when I found the Upboard.

The Upboard has an Intel x5-Z8350 quadcore 1.44Ghz processor which provides reasonable performance running Windows 10 but low power consumption.
