Currently I have 2xUS3000B batteries in my system. Seems fine, but perhaps in the future I’d like to add another one in there.
Is it recommended to add a new battery to a bunch of older ones? If not, what is the latest point at which I should add another battery to the bank?
Lithium has no limit, you can even add after a few years. Just expect to see high voltage alarms until all cells are balanced. Normally up to 2 weeks. And yes you can add different AH units in one bank (mix Us2000 and Us3000)
I started my system with 4 Us2000’s and after a few months added 2 more Us3000’s that I bought from Jaco. All I did was to make sure they were all fully charged, before they were connected together.
Brilliant. Thanks! I’m going to monitor my system through the next winter and see how it goes. Probably add one more just for good measure.
