Hello,
I'm totally beginner in this area, and this question was probably already on forum. Sorry for asking again.
On my boat I use 4 12 V batteries connected in parallel. I planing to swap them for some now ones and thinking to upgrade system with some kind of BMS.
I found that BMS on parallel system is not possible, but I'm asking again, but please with simple answer thus I'm a newbie :D
Every video on net is presenting with serial connection.
- So does it possible and make sense?
- Second question, if I want to add some more batteries in the future. Can I buy BMS for, let's say, 8 batteries and for now connect it only on 4 for now? Does make some impact in that case?
- If BMS is not possible in parallel, is it OK to use BMS that are already build in batteries?
Thanks in advance
