Two BYD battery sets on the one system?

Q&A and troubleshooting

A curly one - I think…

Is it possible to run two different battery sets on a Victron Quattro with Cerbo GX.

I’ve done a LOT of system (think hundreds) so I’m no newbie - I’ve simply never considered actually DOING it before.

The setup would be two different BYD battery sets - LVS and Flex for this setup. So that’s both with the same protocols but different characteristics.

The Cerbo has two BMS-Can ports, and I’ve often wondered why - is it for this?

Wondering if anyone might have some knowledge or experience in this,…?

Cheers!

This has been asked a few times.
While you can attached multiple bms’s only one can be used.
Mixing batteries with different specs isn’t a good idea.
Best option is to move to a shunt but that has trade offs.
Personally I wouldn’t do it.
