I have a 24v Victron systems -Lynx Smart BMS - Cerbo with a 24V 200Ah BAT 524120410 (which I believe is not discontinued) I want to add a second battery. Can I use the new model BAT 524120610 ? I would be installing it in parallel with the other one. I want to make sure it would charge and discharge correctly since it is a different shape.
2nd question - any ideas where I can locate a BAT 524120410 in the United States, All my searches show our of stock.
@wingrant According to the Lithium Battery Smart manual. it is ok to mix batteries with different age in parallel.
Thank you, I am also hoping to get a Victron Technical support rep to answer also. My main question is can the 24V 200Ah BAT 524120410 (old model) be paired with the 24V 200Ah BAT 524120610 (new model). They are different year models in a different form factor. I'm hoping the Victron Lynx Smart BMS will see them as the same thing. I'm concerned that there could be differences in the two models that cause issues even though they are both Victron , 200Ah and 24 volt such as charge / discharge profiles.
