Gel AGM Hybrid batteries

I am looking at Maxon 6v 465AH Gel AGM Hybrid batteries for my project.

Does anyone have any expirience with hyprid batteries?

Does came accross the specifications like Peukert and temprature compentation values?

The only information I could get from Maxon is on this data sheet:

I want to use them in a 24v setup together with

- Victron SmartSolar MPPT 150/60

- Victron MultiPlus-II 24/3000/70-32 230V

- Victron Orion-Tr Smart 24/24-17A (400W) Isolated DC-DC charger

- Victron Battery Monitor BMV-712

and I am interested if somone can help me with the settings for the solar and multiplus charger.

hi, temp compensation is around 3mv/‘C/cell for lead batteries referenced to 25c.. it’s good enough when not specified.. for more details about it, why you don’t try to contact them? ..for your setup, i’m not a victron specialist but your dealer can answer you (and sale what you need)..

Look into LiFePO4 batteries/cells. These are much better suited for solar systems than lead-acid.
