I’m planning a 12v van system with
dc-dc charger from the a smart alternator and starter battery, 3x100w solar panels controller by a smart solar MPPT 100/30
Loads include an 800w inverter and then lights etc
I’m trying to add a suitable bms. I’m looking at the bms 12/200 to avoid the need for adding smart battery protect everywhere.
On my plan, this would go where the negative bus bar currently is, with the Orion dc-dc connected to AB and fuse box and inverter connected to LB
I have read that the solar controller connects to LB, whereas in my head, it should connect on AB with the other charge source.
Q1 Is it correct that the solar charger connects to LB and can charge the battery from there?
Q2 Does the system then negate the need for any “smart battery protect”?
Thank you for help in advance!
