What about an 8s 4p 24V configuration?
First I was planning a 16s 48V system in my boat and was thinking 2 x 16s in parallel. Now I have changed my mind and want to go for a 24V system. Then I read that it is not good practice to connect more than two lifepo4 batteries in parallel.
What if I buy 32 brand new cells from same production batch hopefully with same internally resistance?
The reason for 24V vs 48V is the alternator. I cannot get a 48V alternator for my engine. Balmar has a powerful 24V alternator that fits my engine. Together with an external regulator.
In any case I assume I need one separately BMS for each 24V battery. I am thinking of DALY 250A w fan. BT and UART. Would prefer no fan, but want to be able to charge fast. Both with the alternator and generator via a Victron Quatro 24/5000 or 8000.
