Can you mix LiFePO4 and Li-ion NMC in the same bank? What would happen if you mixed them in the same bank?
Can you add a Lifpo (Drop-in equivalent) battery to an existing AGM bank?Yes, it is a horrible idea. Never connect different chemistries of battery.
I actually experimented with this about a year ago and my results were horrible. Ran into a lot of problems and pulling full capacity was problematic. One battery would constantly feed the other battery depending on voltage. The charge/discharge SOC curve is different for every chemistry, so they were never able to equalize. And performance was really bad.

That's what I thought. I wanted a 24v 100ah battery, but they were out of stock and they sold me 2 x 12v 110ah. I will try to change them."Some" 12 volt Lifepo4 do not deal with series connection very well.
I will do that or let the store do that and test them.With that said, I would charge the LFP batteries using a 12 volt charger tell the BMS disconnects then inspect voltages the next day
The label says: Cont. Discharge: 100A and Peak 200A and I am far away. I am pulling only 50 amps in day time with clouds.(You may be exceeding the amps that the battery can output causing the BMS to disconnect.)
Thanx, I was worried that something blows up or I damage the batteries. Now it's working for 3 days.A couple of months would be no problem.
