Hi! I tried to research this. But I came across a lot of conflicting information.
I built my first battery, a 60AH 48v Fortune bank w/ 100amp Overkill BMS.
I'm going to build my second battery when parts arrive (if they arrive) 280AH 48v Lishenw/ 2x 8s Overkill BMS (increase the amps).
EDIT: Misunderstanding of amps, now going to use one 200A Daly.
Can I put these in parallel and connect them both to my inverter? When searching for this question I saw a lot of answers relating to lead acid batteries, and how you don't want to do this because the batteries will attempt to equalize putting a lot of pressure on the smallest battery. Then I read if you add a diode you can put different AH batteries in parallel. But it seems like that's all advice for banks that do not use a BMS.
Any insight is very much appreciated. Thanks!
