Do you have your charger setup to count Ah as they go into the pack? The hardware is already there, so it would just be a software thing to deal with. I'll look up that Victron. I only really need my first 4, but I like to over do things in the long run. Most of the things in my EV are overkill, so an overkill charger would fit perfectly.
