Hello everyone,

First of all I want to thanks everyone here in helping me out because I almost made the error of purchasing LIPO battery packs not knowing they were highly explosive. Thanks for saving me money and keeping me safe!

I have decided to jump in and create a 4.4 Kwh pack by purchasing 4 of these LIFEPO4 battery packs (8S 14P) from the Jag35 website : https://jag35.com/collections/lithium-batteries/products/24v-26650-lifepo4-powerwall-battery-modules. I will be using the battery packs as is in 24 volt configuration. I plan on parallel connecting all 4 packs together. The packs are on their way and should arrive by next Wednesday!

These will be installed off grid in my 31 foot Class C RV linked to 2 x 390 watt solar panels (Canadian Solar) and 2 x Victron 30 AMP MPPT controller. These will be connected to a 24 volt - 3000 watt Pure Sine wave inverter in order to provide power to the RV when boondocking.

I will be keeping my existing AGM batteries and converter to power the 12 volt systems in the RV. When the batteries run out, I will see what I do from there.

The questions I have for this configuration is the following:
1. Would this BMS be a good choice or would you recommend something else?: https://batteryhookup.com/products/12v-lifepo4-smart-bms-w-low-temp-cutoff?variant=36287974670498
2. I think I will need 1 BMS for each pack (4 total) let me know if I am wrong in assuming this.

Thanks for all your help.
