    Charge 2 Separate Ecoflow Delta Pros with 1 Solar Array?

    Buy another panel and split the array or a large enough relay (with NO and NC) to handle your V&A and automate. Every time I have tried to split solar input to multiple MPPT controllers. They end up just fighting each other for the Max Point. They will just oscillate back and forth and you...

    Eco Flow Delta Pro 2x Extra Batt's Uneven Discharge.

    Should be fine for anything you would run off utility power normally. The distortion doesn't seem to effect other equipment (note not a musician or audiophile mileage may very) and seems to be related to High Freq Inverters vs Low Freq Inverters used in the different AIO units. This from a...

    Eco Flow Delta Pro 2x Extra Batt's Uneven Discharge.

    The LED Flicker is due to the poor power factor of LED lighting and the resulting increase in THD at low loads.

    For those of you looking to monitor your ANT-BMS with Pi3 via Bluetooth.

    It might be possible, but would involve de-soldering the bluetooth chip and connecting a Serial TTL device. The other BMS I have is a JBD based. It has the module external so its easy to unplug and connect the serial device to TX RX and Ground.

    For those of you looking to monitor your ANT-BMS with Pi3 via Bluetooth.

    Yep my MPP LV5048 is connected to the same Pi3 via USB to Serial converter. I use jbalance's package to pickup the data and send to Influx. I also have a couple of Epever Triron3210N's I pull data over the RS-485 to Wi-fi boxes (ebox-wifi-01) for those I use 1st gen Pi with Ethernet connected...

    What would you do with 25 190W panels?

    I found that the MPPT chargers are not all that efficient. Sun up/Sun Down draw -0.5A. Had my current array (1800KW) connected to both at first and found I was loosing too much, but at peak sun I can hear the fans really work now. In your case I would split 6 pairs per MPPT input and if you...

    What would you do with 25 190W panels?

    I ordered 20 as well. I am using MPP LV5048 split phase 5k inverter and 250ah of Li-ion batts (Mix of 18650's and Lifepo4). These units have built in dual 80 MPPT Solar chargers with a max Open Circuit Voltage of 145V so you can put in groups of 2. Likely ground mount as well since these seem...

    Looking for others experiences with MPP Solar LV5048.

    I have it connected to 2x 24v Battleborn 50Ah Lifepo4 batteries in series. As well as a 53Ah custom 14s Li-cobalt pack. I seem to have a bug with the float charging as I never see voltages higher then the float charge limit. The CV setting is 57.8 as recommended by Battleborn, but I have...
