This BMS will not work with the NG (New Generation) batteries. We wait to see what they come up with for its replacement.

Hi Peter, Thanks for this post. I'm looking at installing a second Multiplus for a client's boat on the same battery bank (Lithium). Ive been told by the folks at Victron that this is possible but that the second unit will have to be controlled via the analog controls as opposed to the VE Bus. Is it possible to use the charge disconnect terminal on the BMS if it's already being used to switch the alternator reg wire through a battery protect? Best Regards George

Yes you can. This BMS has the built-in ability to connect to the primary alternator but there is nothing to stop you fitting a secondary alternator and controlling that via the charge disconnect terminal,

In the wiring diagram just above the charge disconnect and load disconnect both go into gray boxes. Are those boxes relays? and if so what type.

They are my crude representation of the Victron Inverting Remote On-Off Cables. There is a tiny circuit board in the middle of the cable and it converts the +12 volt single wire signal into a two wire on-off signal.
