I am looking for a new BMS. I am switching from a 12v setup to 48v and just purchased an EG4 3kW off grid inverter. I currently have 24 280ah cells and 6 JBD 4S BMS's. The EG4 will replace my Midnite Classic 150 and Xantrax SW3012. Yes I know I need 8 more cells to make two 48v batteries in parallel. I have had balancing issues with these cells no matter how many times I top balance them. I would like a solution with active balancing. JK BMS seems to be the most obvious solution. I will also need to fab some new boxes as I am using 8D battery boxes right now that house 12 cells each. If I can buy prefab boxes that would make the project a lot easier.
Is there a BMS that will communicate with my EG4 inverter? Do I even need coms from a practical stand point? (I really just need accurate SOC that my wife can read)
Is JK the only solution that incorporates active balancing?
What can you tell me from a place of personal experience?
