I have a Chinese ANT BMS in my electric car. There is an LCD, which shows information about the battery. The LCD did not have a case so I made one. It is working very well and it is simple to print, even without supports.
There are 4 files:
- Kuori.stl = the case itself
- Pohja.stl = the bottom lid
- kaapelitunneli.stl = cable tray
- ikkunatuki.stl = support so that the case is leaning on the car window. The finns are small so that they do not disrupt the de fogging air flow

I did not use any supports. Print came out perfectly!
Post-Printing
To assemble the case:
- Use a M3 screw and nut to secure the backplate and cable tray to the main housing
- Insert the LCD to the case
- Insert the bottom of the case
- Use short M3 screws to secure the bottom plate. The nut is the spacer on the LCD, so remove first the original two screws from the LCD
- Connect the cables and put them int the cable tray. This is a bit tricky but is plausible with some effort.
Enjoy the case!
