Would you recommend that for FLAs? Thank you, Chris

Jay,
I started recommending the Victron battery balancer for all series and
series/parallel Li battery banks. It has eliminated trouble in some
problematic systems. If you reach a cell over-voltage in the Kilovault
BMS, it will block current flow, preventing the other series batteries
from charging. This also causes havoc with connected equipment as the
battery appears to have disconnected.

Hi All
I’m wondering what the thoughts are on using or not balancers for 2
12v lithium in series for 24v system. The batteries don’t have any
series communication.
Kilovault if that matters.
Not my design.
It would seem to be a good idea, with victron having a good one.
Thanks in advance
Jay
