I'm having the same issue, works fine for a bit but eventually one of my batteries/bms get unbalanced or something and need to go back to one. It's strange, both batteries on their own with their BMS work great with no issue but when connected in parallel less than 12 hours one of them loses...

Hey Steve, Hopefully your getting a summer over in N.Ontario, was born in Sudbury and now living in the tropics where you hope for cool days. Anyways would just like to pick your brain a minute about a comment you mentioned: "I will not recommend a BMS to you, as it is somewhat subjective, I...

Hi again, Cheers for the info, always getting a little closer to my goal. Ya sorry, so it was an 80A BMS I got and unless I take your suggestion and derate my system looks like I'll be going shopping again. Out of curiosity how do I derate, is it something I will set on my controller? I...

Hey Tic, That's pretty awesome, I've not even got to cable yet and that's pretty great you gave me some good advice on setting it up and the gage needed. Love the set up and your giving me hope it might work and I didn't screw myself. As I mentioned to Steve, Will doesn't recommend more then 2...

Hi Steve, Thanks for the info, I wanted to wait till I'm done reading the victronenergy you shared with me before replying but I've been busy and still working through it. I also looked into your chargery option, so this would be another option instead of a BMS? Got to be honest with you the...

Reading several of your other comments on different threads I just noticed I failed to mention my batteries are LiFePo4

Hi Steve, Thanks for the reply,I'm also from Canada but I'm here in the hot Philippines trying to build my Off Grid dream. To clarify you are correct it is a 24v system and feeling like I'm a little out of my league, I've learned just enough to be dangerous I believe is the expression. I bought...

I have 1 Daly BMS for my 4p8s system how to I connect them? Just multiply the 8 wires to 32? If so what wire should I use and what the proper way to connect them? Other options I'm thinking is just bite the bullet and buy another 3 BMS but then how do you connect the 4 BMS together properly...

(UPDATE) Trying to make my questions easier to understand, two questions, 1) Can I turn the 8 wires on my BMS to 32 for my 4p8s system and what wires should I use? 2) How to properly connect my system to accommodate the only using 1 BMS? Thanks again

Hi Everyone, Complete noob here, who's been doing a lot of research in putting my own system together. A couple months back you guys helped in choosing some pieces to my puzzle and they finally made it. I was informed I can use 1 BMS for my system and Daly was probably the best tried and tested...

Hi Again, Thanks to everyone's help here on the forum I'm going to be placing my order this week. I'll be sure to post some pics when I have it all set up, I'm very excited and nervous. It's a lot of money for me and super scared I F$*& it up. I decided to go with a different controller from...

Thanks for the link, I really enjoy Will. The little knowledge I do have is thanks to him. It's slowly sinking in. Sorry for the confusion, I guess what I'm curious about is can I continue adding 8s batteries to my parallels, example 8s10p? Is there max storage for a specific controller or I...

Cool, do you have a link for beginners to figure out the max amount of batteries for a controller?

Cheers again, I'm getting close to picking my BMS thanks for everyones help. I never used a forum before and amazed how helpful people are. I'm split between 90ah lifepo4 8s3p. or 105ah 8s2p. I'm not sure how to calculate the max storage for my controller, can it handle more or is this about...

So I browsed around on the forum with some good info but one of my concerns is heat not cold as I'm in the Philippines. That being said harder to find things, I could not find a Daly BMS I could order but found this no name. Would the one in the image work I sent you, my concern is the 100A...
