Is this good insurance: https://www.solar-electric.com/vict..._UKopimDYuJtSN5ecZiOLp0QCek4J14BoC36kQAvD_BwE
I am building a battery bank of two, 24v, 100ah lifepo4 battery packs (a total of 16, 32.v, 100ah CALB lifepo4 cells). I am using two, 100ah (actually, 300ah capacity) 'ANT' BMSs with bluetooth app which is pretty good considering they are $100 each.
I am considering incorporating the Victron Battery Balancer just in case one/either of my two BMS take a nap and never wake up.
Thoughts? Alternatives? One alternative I have executed is keeping two (2) spare AND BMS. Another would be getting better (more expensive) BMSs.
Also, is there a better, whole system solution than the Victron Battery Balancer. Again, likely more $$$ but not out of the question. I've heard on the Schoolie forums there is a new tech solar BMS that integrates the BMS and solar charge controller "the new SBMS0 plus DSSR20 ".
