Updates can be delivered via the VictronConnect app over Bluetooth, or — when a GX device with internet is connected — directly through the VRM portal over-the-air. When additional batteries are added to a system at a later date, their firmware is automatically updated to match the system firmware version. This ensures all cells in a bank are always running the same software version.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"display: inline-block; background: #008377; color: #fff; border-radius: 20px; padding: 3px 11px; font-size: 13px; font-weight: bold; letter-spacing: .02em; margin: 2px 4px 2px 0; white-space: nowrap;\"\u003eAutomatic OTA updates\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"display: inline-block; background: #008377; color: #fff; border-radius: 20px; padding: 3px 11px; font-size: 13px; font-weight: bold; letter-spacing: .02em; margin: 2px 4px 2px 0; white-space: nowrap;\"\u003eVia VictronConnect or VRM\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"display: inline-block; background: #008377; color: #fff; border-radius: 20px; padding: 3px 11px; font-size: 13px; font-weight: bold; letter-spacing: .02em; margin: 2px 4px 2px 0; white-space: nowrap;\"\u003eNew batteries auto-updated\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: flex; gap: 14px; align-items: flex-start; padding: 14px 16px; background: #e6f4f3; border-left: 4px solid #008377; border-radius: 0 6px 6px 0; margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex-shrink: 0; width: 28px; height: 28px; background: #008377; border-radius: 50%; display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: center;\"\u003e\u003csvg stroke-width=\"3\" stroke=\"#fff\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" height=\"13\" width=\"13\"\u003e\u003cpolyline points=\"20 6 9 17 4 12\"\u003e\u003c\/polyline\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 15px; font-weight: bold; color: #005c54; margin-bottom: 4px;\"\u003eLow Self-Discharge — ≤3 %\/Month for Long Storage\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 15px; color: #444; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eA maximum self-discharge rate of \u003cstrong\u003e3 % per month at 25°C\u003c\/strong\u003e means the battery retains over 97 % of its charge after 30 days of storage.

Two 12.8 V NG batteries connected in series create a nominal 25.6 V (24 V system) bank. The Lynx Smart BMS NG manages series connections automatically — it detects the system voltage at startup.

When a new battery is added to the bank, its firmware is automatically updated by the BMS to match the system firmware. For parallel additions within the same bank, ensure the new battery's state of charge is within a reasonable range of the existing batteries before connecting — wait 15 minutes after connection before running loads to allow equalisation. The BMS automatically detects the new battery and updates its battery count. For systems requiring more than 50 batteries, up to 5 Lynx Smart BMS NG units can be paralleled with an MBMS controller.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border: 1px solid #cde3e1; border-radius: 8px; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: hidden;\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"padding: 14px 18px; font-size: 15px; font-weight: bold; color: #005c54; cursor: pointer; list-style: none; display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: space-between; background: #f5fbfa;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow does the IP65 rating compare to what I need for a marine installation?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003csvg stroke-width=\"2.5\" stroke=\"#008377\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" height=\"18\" width=\"18\"\u003e\u003cpolyline points=\"6 9 12 15 18 9\"\u003e\u003c\/polyline\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding: 14px 18px 16px; font-size: 15px; color: #444; line-height: 1.65; border-top: 1px solid #cde3e1; background: #fff;\"\u003eIP65 means the battery is \u003cstrong\u003ecompletely protected against dust\u003c\/strong\u003e and can withstand \u003cstrong\u003ewater jets from any direction\u003c\/strong\u003e at low pressure. For most marine installations — engine rooms, under-berth storage, anchor lockers — IP65 is sufficient for the conditions encountered. It is not rated for submersion (IP67\/68), so the battery should not be installed in bilge areas that are regularly flooded. Leave at least 2 cm of clearance around the battery for ventilation, as the battery generates heat during charge and discharge.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border: 1px solid #cde3e1; border-radius: 8px; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: hidden;\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"padding: 14px 18px; font-size: 15px; font-weight: bold; color: #005c54; cursor: pointer; list-style: none; display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: space-between; background: #f5fbfa;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat VictronConnect features are available for this battery?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003csvg stroke-width=\"2.5\" stroke=\"#008377\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" height=\"18\" width=\"18\"\u003e\u003cpolyline points=\"6 9 12 15 18 9\"\u003e\u003c\/polyline\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding: 14px 18px 16px; font-size: 15px; color: #444; line-height: 1.65; border-top: 1px solid #cde3e1; background: #fff;\"\u003eWhen a GX device (Cerbo GX, CCGX, etc.) with a Lynx Smart BMS NG is connected, the following are visible in VictronConnect and on the GX device: individual cell voltages, individual cell temperatures, battery current, overall SoC, state of health (SoH), charge\/discharge power, battery voltage, and alarm status for each cell. All data is also available remotely on the \u003cstrong\u003eVRM portal\u003c\/strong\u003e for monitoring from any internet-connected device. Pre-alarms appear in VictronConnect before any cell reaches its protection threshold, giving time to act before the BMS disconnects loads or chargers.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; color: #005c54; border-bottom: 3px solid #008377; padding-bottom: 8px; margin: 28px 0 14px; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: .05em;\"\u003eRelated Products\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: grid; grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fill,minmax(210px,1fr)); gap: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border: 1px solid #cde3e1; border-radius: 8px; padding: 16px 18px; text-align: center; background: #f5fbfa;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 15px; font-weight: bold; color: #005c54; margin-bottom: 4px;\"\u003eVictron Lynx Smart BMS NG 500A\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 13px; color: #666;\"\u003eMandatory BMS for NG battery banks — up to 500A system current\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border: 1px solid #cde3e1; border-radius: 8px; padding: 16px 18px; text-align: center; background: #f5fbfa;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 15px; font-weight: bold; color: #005c54; margin-bottom: 4px;\"\u003eVictron Lynx Smart BMS NG 1000A\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 13px; color: #666;\"\u003eMandatory BMS for high-current NG systems — up to 1000A\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border: 1px solid #cde3e1; border-radius: 8px; padding: 16px 18px; text-align: center; background: #f5fbfa;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 15px; font-weight: bold; color: #005c54; margin-bottom: 4px;\"\u003eVictron Multiplus-II 12\/3000\/120\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 13px; color: #666;\"\u003e3kVA 12V inverter\/charger for use with this battery\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border: 1px solid #cde3e1; border-radius: 8px; padding: 16px 18px; text-align: center; background: #f5fbfa;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 15px; font-weight: bold; color: #005c54; margin-bottom: 4px;\"\u003eVictron SmartSolar MPPT 100\/30\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 13px; color: #666;\"\u003eMPPT solar charge controller for 12V LiFePO₄ systems\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62935672193373,"sku":"BAT512130620","price":1490.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/2051\/3629\/files\/lithium-ng-12.8-300-side.jpg?v=1774357468","url":"https:\/\/qualityheating.co.uk\/products\/victron-energy-lifepo4-battery-12-8v-300ah-ng-bat512130620","provider":"AIZO Quality Heating","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
