Been scratching my head over this one for a few weeks now. Running a 48v LiFePO4 bank (4x 280Ah EVE cells in series, so 16 cells total wired as 4S4P), managed through a Daly 150A BMS.

Had the original 65A alternator on my Beta 43 die on me last week, so rather than just replacing like-for-like I thought it was a good opportunity to upsize.

Picked up a 4S 100A BMS from AliExpress last month for about £8.50 delivered — JBD/Xiaoxiang branded, the kind you can hook up to a Bluetooth app and actually see what's going on with each cell.

Really useful thread this. @George1975 one thing worth adding — the MultiPlus-II has that PowerControl feature but more relevant here is Dynamic Current Limiter, and honestly for low-load...
