It's a 13mm hex, and the thread is thicker than a 6mm; so it's either 8 or 10 likely. Torqued those with 7nm because those are big and I assumed it can take more, I'm specially interested in the shunt en vertical bar with 3 screws (I have it now torqued at 2nm)

Thanks, I will be sure to heat shrink them, was making sure if it was okay. Will be sure to trim those loose hairs a bit, and apply heat shrink :) Can't wait to receive my batteries!

It's allowed to send power back to the lines (though I would want to limit the current going back), I also got a meter that will go in reverse when delivering back. I'm still looking around the initial idea is too make a system that will charge the battery's on times when it's cheap (dynamic...

oeh, missed that part thanks but i'm wondering, he says to use 7nm for those smaller screws (bms); however he has a hex but I have a philips screw... pretty sure it'll break before 7nm

You can just calculate how much profit you would have, and how long it'll take to pay back for the system. It might be a good choice to go solar only, and keep the grid connection because the prices are not that high (depending on usage), and you'd want to have a backup anyway. But that depends...

I'm currently builder a mason 280 system; however the manual is a bit confusing regarding the torque (or well, the whole manual). It says: with this image: With this I think it would be: The long bar with 3 horizontal screws: 1.5 - 2nm fuse connector: 7nm shunt connector: 7nm(?) looks too...

Thanks a lot :-)

Haha welp, this is going to be fun ~

Haha three of those are dulled, as expected. Though it might work but you got exactly the correct thickness bit for it; likely haha. I will try to find some hex screws for this Might ping up the rep for it, I don't see any reason why they would go philips with this one... haha. Edit: all are...

I recently bought a JK BMS but it required some crimping, I bought an hammer crimper and bought a set of ring terminals, but I'm not sure what to use for this. The wire of the JK BMS is AWG7, my initial thought was the 'SC16-8' would be the correct fit for it but looking around awg 7 is 10.5mm...

Thanks guys, did some test crimping, any tips? I think the top one shifted a bit, would it be suggested to re-do that one? I used an hammer crimper. Both are really stuck on it.

Thanks for the good info, about the 3kw limit I was thinking about the net grid 230v side not the EPS, I might use the EPS for smaller things that's near that area like the fridge.

Thanks, that will be painful for the wallet, haha. Was hoping when having a RPI you can connect the normal version.

Hey, I'm working on my first installation where I want to use my battery to support my 230v GRID. I came across SPH3000 this is a hybrid inverter, but after reading the manual I'm rather unsure whether this is the correct solution. I want to give the priority to discharging the battery...

Thank you for the fast response @shavermcspud that is good to hear :) The idea is to make a off peak charger and on peak using the battery capacity (mostly without solar), would you happen to know if there is a good local API implementation? A bit theoretic question, let's assume my load on...

Does anyone know what kind of metal is used for those screws? I need to get replacement because I was to hard to it :cool:

I'm not sure, If you want to use this with a multiplus ii system, will you need the multiplus ii GX version or will a normal version suffice?

I would have expected you to have two nuts; one that is attached to your screw terminal (and can't move) and the other to mount lugs. I can't seem to find a way how you could've torqued this appropiately. That would mean the screw itself would carry the current; while it's nice to have as...

Hey Guys, I just received my JK BMS but truth to be told I do not like the cable they use (aluminium, not replaceable) and that you have to crimp your own connector for the battery. I was looking at Seplos which seemed interesting to me because it does allows you to use your own cables and...

Does anyone have access to the manual from Seplos Mason 280? Their website does not allow me to register and I did not receive any paper with it. Would love it, if you guys would like to share those :-) battery are nearly top balanced :cool:

it does fit in 10mm2 but barely with no space left; not sure if that would be the correct way to do it. AWG 7 seems to be a thing, it's a awg that is not often used, likely. It's odd they included those wires; tbh I doubt it can pull 200amps both combined (I think they are alum wire)

Hey, I was looking around but I couldn't find this specific case where you have a full battery and want to discharge half of the battery to the AC line (so that it'll feed the devices first and send back to the energy company) What do you guys think that's the best and fastest and least...

I thought it might be an issue with resistance, even if it's rather small in time the gap might be widening, which is why I assumed it was better to have it. Yeah, the downside is it might be masking bad cells which can also cause problems in the long term, I think, decided to go with a mason...

I think that would be 10D which is v15(?), pretty sure the 10E would be V16 unless the seller got it wrong.
