Last year I purchased a boat which has 6 x Flooded Cell batteries, Generator and No Inverter. I was finding that I was running the generator all the time. So, I fitted a Isolating Transformer, two Multiplus, DMC, CerboGX, GXTouch, SmartShunt and Argofet Isolator. I've tried to make a diagram below, but not a graphics genius.
At the same time as purchasing the MultiPlus Inverter, I purchased BUT did not install, Orion-Tr Smart DCDC Charger, Cyrix Li-Charge and Smart Battery Protect.
My Flooded Cell Batteries have now totally failed which is no surprise at 5 year old. So, I want to upgrade to Lithium 4 x LiFePO4 200ah 12.8v Smart Batteries (I think 4 is enough!).
Can anyone let me know what other key parts I need to operate the Lithium and make sure everything is okay and safe. I had one person telling me VE Bus BMS with my spare parts and another person telling me Lynx Smart BMS 500 is better and easier and sell the Cyrix and Smart Battery Protect.
Any help or recommendations would be great.
Thanks, Stefanie x
