    Id recommend the following if you wanty to be covering the bases

    2 battery balancers ( 1 for each pair of batteries ) $50.00 each

    Charger I like best at 30 amps
    Skylla IP44 24/30 (3) 90-265VAC can do both banks $699.00

    Larger if you want a more basic but more amps

    Centaur Charger 24/60 (3) also can do both banks but analog controlled. $750.00

    PM Me if you need assistance
    Does Victron make a balancer for 8v batteries?

    Re: Battery chArger size

    Victron does not support 8 volt batteries orn32 volt systems.

    I've spoken to their big bosses and they do not see a viable business plan around the diminishing 32 volt systems.

    I can ask if they can modify the 12 volt units but I'm not optimistic.

    Is that special HOF pricing or everyday?

    It’s funny how people get sucked into thinking they get better pricing from bigger outfits. I’ve dealt with that mindset for over 38 years being a one man business in a small town. People automatically assume they will save money by driving to Knoxville when my everyday pricing beats the “sale” prices on identical merchandise.

    Bigger isn’t always better... or less expensive.

    It's a few dollars less (750 vs 799) for members and I do provide support, drawings when needed and can do installation when need.

    Well, yeah, that was sort of my point. Considering what Pascal spent, it’s a GREAT price.

    I'm finding that there aren't many 32v chargers being made anymore.
