Yes, I used to do that and worked well for me. I recommend that approach when no other way can do it.

Having Winston cells, that is what I thought initially. But some (cheaper) cells with large variance in internal resistance and other parameters will need it.

Yes. Field disconnect is the...

Re: Merged LiFeYPO4 1000Ah Winston prismatic cells and all electric galley...

Both TAO and REC BMS can remotely command external equipment either by wire or CAN bus (in addition to relays) - so no current limit.
I would add Electrodacus to the BMS comparison chart, but I have...

Re: Merged LiFeYPO4 1000Ah Winston prismatic cells and all electric galley...

I fully agree with you and I believe this is a good way to have a robust, redundant and safer installation. There are a few BMS that can do that (see attached file).

You may want to look at the TAO BMS with 6 programmable relay outputs. Each can be activated by one or more criteria on cell voltage, temperature or SOC.
For example I turn the water heater ON...

Re: Merged LiFeYPO4 1000Ah Winston prismatic cells and all electric galley...

I read somewhere that those big cells may be more sensitive to vibration and shocks (which sometime happens on a catamaran :wink:). It does make intuitive sense that larger plates would have more...
