Lithium Iron Phosphate

Yes you can swap out the current BMS to batrium and it would work fine in 48VDC setup.
Using the current bms when having multiple in series is not recommended.
 
So here are the results of the test on these K2batteries.
This is a sample of ~70 some batteries.
I tested the 5 I took with me. What do you think?
Worth it or not.

Looks like there's some good capacity to be had?
Only 1/5 with higher IR/lower capacity?
I'd buy the lot if you can use them...
 
Resurrect the dead! Batteries have been doing well. I have at least a dozen wired up with the off grid solar greenhouse aquaponics system. If my wiring wasn't so scary I'd post a pic or start a thread in the projects side of things.
 
hi everyone,
i read the post but i need clarification about if i could place 3 of those K2B24V10EB as they are in parallel for my 24v ebike currie motor. the controller ask for 20 amp apparently.
i just need it to go up a hill and make a 5 km while pedalling to helpoccasionnaly.
I dont know the bms spec does someone have the spec?

i read the image where they say 1 battery in serie max but i dont need them in series, my setup asks for 24 volt.
can i put them in parallel with their stock bms?

would i have to charge them separatly or could i charge them 3 at the same time with one charger? both are ok to me
i want to know if i can use them in parallel for my project and what i should be aware of.

thanks

Yes you can parallel as many as you want since they are all 24V and on the same bus. You can charge and discharge them connected. The BMS is individual to each battery and will take care of it's own cells.
All the info you need is in this pdf
Also some info on paralleling.

hi wolf,

some say that since we dont know the bms s caracteristic, the questions of putting them in parallel becomes will the BMS' co-exist and be friendly to each other?

do you have info on the bms ?

did you or other happen to have actually placed the k2 in parallel and confirm that the bms are friendly to each other can coexist? Something about discharge and "fight" each other too much in balancing all the cells
 
Something about discharge and "fight" each other too much in balancing all the cells
Info from the web
All of the K2 batteries listed have a Battery management System installed, referred to as a PCM (Protection Control Module). The PCM provides a low voltage cut off, based on the lowest cell voltage, typically around 2.0 V to 2.5 V (8 V – 10 V for 12 V batteries and 16 to 20 V for 24V batteries), a high voltage cutoff, once again based on the highest cell, typically 3.7 V to 3.9 V (14.8 V to 15.6 V for 12 V batteries and 29.6 V to 31.2 V for 24 V batteries. These can vary a little according to the balance condition of the battery.

When the high or low cutoffs are out of these ranges it is likely a sign that battery needs to charged and balanced for a day or more. Balancing is accomplished at the end of the charging cycle so it is important to fully charge and balance your battery periodically, typically once a year.

Also a quick chat session with an AI and I should have an answer in my mail box soon.
I will share this with you when I get it.
However the K2B24V10EB is its own entity just like a led acid except it is "smart". The BMS/PCM wont let it overcharge or over discharge.
You can put them in parallel to the moon and back and it should not matter. Nevertheless I will wait for the answer from K2.

🎺UPDATE🎺
Right from the horses, I mean K2 Engineering mouth.

Some Say and who are the some?

Anyway no worries on how many you want to put in parallel
