I tried to make contact with Magneto, to ask them some questions regarding the warranty etc. They seem to be a new brand and would like to get some ease of mind. They just simply directed me back to the power forum store, without really responding to anything I asked.

You can promise what you like I guess, but customer engagement is important to me, I would like to make sure that what is promised will be honoured.

 

[UPDATE]

Got a solid email response from them after asking again, so all is in order.

What's the consensus on mixing battery brands/models on an existing installation?

Initially, batteries with different capacities, types, and usage histories may not significantly impact performance. However, over time, the dissimilar electrolytes and variations in charging and discharging processes can lead to battery damage.

Considering technical aspects, I personally advise against the following practices:

  1. Mixing used batteries with new ones.
  2. Combining batteries of different capacities in parallel or series connections.
  3. Using batteries from different brands.
  4. Mixing different battery types.

Advanced inverters often come equipped with smart battery management systems (BMS) that recognize connected batteries. However, BMS can sometimes become confused about the battery types, leading to potential damage to command boards."

Remember to handle battery combinations with care to ensure optimal system performance and longevity.

I'm trying to find out what cells (i.e. CATL, EVE, BYD, etc.) are used in the Magneto models 

Wall mount
EVO100 - 5kWh
EVO200 - 10kWh
EVO280 - 14kWh

 

I assume they are LiFePO4 type

As far as I know the Manufacturer has confirmed 5 and 14KWH uses EVE and the 10 KWH uses ETC
