Bert Hennephof asked Oct 3, '22

I have a EasySolar II 24/3000/70-32 MPPT 250/70 GX and want to connect a Victron LiFePO4 Smart 25,6V 200Ah.

The EasySolar has BMS-Can (RJ-45) and VE.Bus (RJ-45) and VE.direct (4 pin), but the Smart battery has a male and female circular connector.

Is it not possible to connect directly? Do I need additional BMS device??

It is rather clearly documented in everything from the spec sheet to the manual..

There are so many options, that it becomes overwhelming.

But I now found the VE.Bus BMS V2, which looks most suitable for my purpose.

The video training can make it all less challenging.

You seem to have chosen wisely.

The docs are good, so have a read to become familiar and if you have questions come back here for pointers.

Good luck.
