Are third-party (non GivEnergy) batteries compatible with GivEnergy inverters? If so, does anyone have any recommendation?

@Danlambert (GivEnergy) can you give the definative answer to this one please, well the question of compatability anyway.
Obviously I would recommend GE batteries too ;-)

I have the same question
You cannot mix battery types so if you have existing GIVenergy battery you would need to remove and then replace with another type of battery.
The main question is not the battery but does the inverter support another BMS system. Most people seem to use the Seplos one and then buy LifePo4 batteries out of Europe.
So the question I think you have is not do they support other batteries but do they support other BMS
