Hi everybody,
first of all, sorry for my english.
Im Gian from Switzerland, building an Expeditions-Mobile of a Bucher Duro (Ex-Swiss-Military-Truck).
I bought 8x 400ah Winston Cells with REC BMS which is compatible to all the rest of my Components which are from Victron: 5000W Multiplus II, Orion, Buckboost and so on.
Due to space limitations, i would like to separate the batterybank in 2 blocks.
The cells will be connected in SERIES to achieve 400ah on 24v.
Someone told me to look after exact same cable lengths and that its not good to separate the cells in two blocks because of the much bigger Reststance between block 1 and 2.
I then tought its only a problem if wired in parallel but he told me NO. Its the same issue when connected in series.
So whats correct? I dont wanna risk anything.
The two blocks would have a distance of about 70cm (27.5").
The the cells will be connectet with the original winston linkbars which are very short. Except of the two blocks which are connected then with a 70cm long cable.
Is this a Problem or not?
If not, what cable size for the 70cm should i use?
thank you very much for your help.
Gian
