- Improved Victron Communications: This update refines the handling of high voltage alarms in the V2 model to ensure accurate performance. Improved communication enhances the monitoring and control of the battery system for greater reliability.
- Improved Scalability: Parallel Capability: The system can now handle up to 16 batteries in parallel, compared to the previous limitation of just 4. This greatly expands the potential for energy storage, allowing for larger systems.
- Upgraded Internal Components: Certified Components: The internal fuse is UL60691 certified, and the battery cells meet a range of safety and quality standards, including UL1642, UL1973, U9540A, IEC 62619:2017, and RoHS. This indicates that the battery is built to high safety standards and is suitable for various applications.
- Battery UL Listing: The battery is in the process of receiving its UL Listing (a certification for safety and quality). This will further confirm its compliance with industry standards.
- Improved Bluetooth App Compatibility: All-Battery Dashboard: The app now supports connecting to and monitoring all batteries from a single dashboard, even if you have up to 16 batteries in your system. This makes it easier to manage large-scale installations.
- BMS Over-the-Air Firmware Updates: The system can now receive firmware updates remotely via the app. This ensures the battery management system (BMS) is always running the latest software, which can improve performance, security, and features over time.
- Upgraded Battery Gauge: Better Monitoring: The new battery gauge provides more detailed information, including State of Charge (SOC), voltage, current flow, and alarm alerts. This is a significant improvement over the older version, which only had a 10-segment gauge. The added details help with better monitoring of the system's health and performance.

Batteries employed in non-Victron systems should utilize the following settings:
- Absorption voltage of 28.4V with an absorption time of a minimum of 15 minutes per battery.
- Float voltage of 27.0V
- Equalization off
- No temperature compensation
To use the V2 Elite with Victron systems. Set up the battery comm harness and gauge as follows:
- Plug with waterproof bung plugged into master blue port.
- RJ45 cable out of master black port and into slave1 blue port.
- RJ45 cable out of slave1 black port and into slave blue port and so on to daisy chain up to 16 batteries in parallel.
- Set dips as per manual.
- Plug in grey RJ45 plug into the Cerbo or Ekrano GX BMS CAN port or if you have the new Cerbo Mk2 plug grey plug inot VE-CAN1 or VE-CAN 2 and change the VE can port speed to 500 KBPS LV.
- To confirm proper reporting, go to the GX/touch screen and confirm the Epoch battery shows up on the device list. Click on the battery line, go to Details. Check to see the number of modules online is equal to the number of batteries installed. Check that the number of AH is equal to the number of AH installed.
- In the GX device/touch screen turn on DVCC, set controlling BMS to Epoch, set battery monitor to Epoch.
- The system should say External Control on the GX touch screen Inverter tile when charging (but not while inverting). The system will automatically cycle to 28.4V with an absorption time of a minimum of roughly 15 minutes per battery followed by 27.0V float voltage.
- It is recommended to manually program the Multiplus, Quattro and all other charge source to these same parameters in case of CAN communication loss.
