    this is very similar to computers &nbsp;many have one &nbsp;but few can repair or even ajust them to maximize there full potential uses??? lifepo4 batteries is in the same kind of zone for a majority of people using this technology. BUt it is nice to see some take the time to explain it like you do. thumbs up and i lift my hat to you for having the patience to do this.

    Having both the Victron and Redodo Balancers, I have found Redodo is quicker to Recover than the Victron Offering and runs allot cooler.

    would it be the best charger /bms , the one that charges every cell separately and all to the same voltage from the same voltage , parallel , and &nbsp;combine the output only, to a series ?<br>i am saying and for long arrays of batteries in series .

    I had the Victron balancer on a &nbsp;24v plant comprised of 8 &nbsp;12V 140 AH batteries, it didn&apos;t work very well. I replaced it with one from Redodo and have been running it for 2 years with great success.

    What do you think about other battery balancers like the PowMr? I know you don&apos;t like 12v batteries wired in series for 48 volt but, I&apos;d still love to see a test just to see how it does with that set up. FYI there are a lot of solar systems out there that use this kind of configuration for solar storage.

    A balancer is balancing 😅 What a surprise. But LFP really needs a BMS.
