Hey everyone! I'm looking for recommendations on the best battery monitor for my setup. I have five 24V, 100Ah batteries connected in parallel, and I'm a bit confused about which monitor would work best for me. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

The Victron SmartShunt is usually the go-to choice for setups like yours. It’s highly recommended and I haven't come across any strong competitors that match its reliability.
For monitoring state of charge, overall voltage, and current in/out, I'd suggest either the Victron SmartShunt or the BMV-712. They’re both great options for your needs. You can check their datasheets for more info!
Yes, that's exactly what I am wanting it for. Thanks!
If you're not too concerned about connectivity, you could go for a generic current shunt. There are much cheaper options out there than the Victron if you don't need the extras.
Ok, thank you!
