Hello...
already I have TurboEnergy 2,4kWh x4 and would like to add 2x Pylontech US2000
it will work ok with battery life? Or its not possible?
All will work under cerbo GX and 3x MPII 5000VA

Ideally you would want all the same battery in a bank. The turbo max are already a non officially supported battery. Pylontec have a section in their manual where they specifically say not to mix other batteries with them.
Do you want them to all be data linked and connected electrically together?
There is no way to predict how the communication would work, if it will work correctly. Or even if the Pylontec and the turbos would be ok together. Do they say they work together?
They are both 15s batteries, seem to have similar needs with regards to charged voltages, so could be. But that is not be an official answer. You would have to try and give feedback entirely at your own risk.
If @Solarmax Canarias could offer more insight, especially if they have tried it, that would be helpful.
Hello again... at least I connected everything. And...
Got a problem. Cerbo GX doesn't see Pylontech Module... TurboEnergy also.
It works because victron getting data from distributor (bars)
Is someone know how should i connect it togather?
I did:
Cerbo GX BMS-Can port -> Cable Type B -> Pylontech A/Can Port -> All other Pylontech -> then TurboEnergy.
What I did wrong?
Please help.
Ill make answer for mysefl (and maybe other would like it too)
Its work... till now Errors gone.
What i did?
Just unplug rj45 cable that connecting modules. Pylontech and Turboenergy doesnt like be connected together. So unplug them.
I did connection from Cerbo VE-CAN -> Turboenergy Cable -> Master part CAN.
so Pylontech is connected alone from BMS-Can port
and TurboEnergy connected alone by VE-CAN.
hope it will work... for forever :)
anyway Victron doesnt suppor TurboEnergy that why there is no show anything in Cerbo? Right?
Hi I had 4 Pylontech 3000C units and mistakenly based on a slightly dubious advert where it wasnt obvious that I was purchasing Turoenergy batteries added two additional 3000C Turbo energy units to my stack and I have been able to successfully add the Turbo energy units to the existing Pylon 3000C stack.
Internally they are of the same BMS type the Turboenergy units are a branding version specifically for the spanish market only so the only affect is the warranty which is still frustrating given the pricing difference.
I have one of the 3000C Pylon as the master in the stack and they properly identify as 6 batteries in a stack and present the voltage and temperature via the VRM portal and local Display correctly.
If you were to promote one of your 2000C units to be the master you might find that you can treat them as a single stack with the pylon doing the Smart BMS communication and the Turbo using RS485 to the other batteries.
Additional resources still need to be added for this topic
