Had a problem over time nearly 2 years the cells were what appears to be out of balance. I think i balanced them by setting the charge voltage higher than recomended.

The BMS works well but the install requires an energy monitor with a shunt. Too much work for me and my clients. Their batteries are too small at 3.5 kwh or so. If they changed the size up, and got Soc out to OUtback or Schneider I would use them.
