    Just added 2nd Growatt in parallel single phase...

    Yeah, I'm back... but this time out of concern of what I just discovered and think it important to ask. Hopefully someone will read this far and maybe shed some light on this. I fired up the app on my laptop - BMS Test - to check things out and it's showing one battery at a SOC of 63% and the...

    Just added 2nd Growatt in parallel single phase...

    Well, gotta say I am now completely and totally baffled. I mean I'm utterly confused as to what just happened, or maybe that I just do not understand why this happened as it did. I decided to go ahead and go out and re-connect the 2nd Growatt back into the system rather than wait any further...

    Just added 2nd Growatt in parallel single phase...

    I can't thank you enough for taking the time to answer and give me a heads up on this... it is truly appreciated. I had, or still have, a strong feeling your suggestion is the route I'm gonna have to take. In the beginning, before I got the system to work in Lithium mode I fought terribly in...

    Just added 2nd Growatt in parallel single phase...

    Greetings everyone... Yeah, I'm a newbie... well, sort of... I've been running solar for about 9 years now, the first 8 years or so on AGM until recently when I built an entirely new system with LiFePo4 batteries on a 24 volt system. Things were working wonderfully with 2 LifePower4...

    I don't even know where to begin... but I took a break, watched some football, and normally I would have been done today sitting here at the laptop. But I just had a feeling... Your reply... again most excellent and I send kudos and am more grateful than you can imagine that you so fully...

    Okay... I think I've caught up and having been trying desperately to calm myself down, as I get so stressed out as I've done all afternoon. I'm gonna concentrate now on all you've said, especially this last response. Please, please bear with me, and I hope you don't mind, but a few questions...

    Too late!!! I've been panicking all afternoon! I can get really stressed out when things start piling up, and this afternoon has been just that. I know I'm know I'm getting very good advice, but so much of it has come in today alone and I'm having great difficulty concentrating on what's most...

    I too thank you more than I can say... and all your info seems most excellent. But with now so much coming in I'm baffled as to what to do or maybe even more so how to do it. Just let me say at this very moment, as I've got so much to contemplate and things to answer to in several different...

    Wow, thanks. It is indeed a long thread, and I've only had mere moments in which to try and garner enough useful information. I've now had two new replies and most of what said there is also above my head or I'm not understanding how to correct things to rectify my urgent situation. Thanks...

    To everyone that has now replied... I THANK YOU IMMENSELY!!! But as all this new info comes in, and so much of it I barely understand, much less what to do to correct what might the the problem(s), it seems now my feeble little brain has turned to oatmeal. I apologize to all for my lack of...

    Hey Matt, what you said I didn't have a clue about, and I regarded your expertise as monumental. Anyway, thanks!

    Okay... I'm back! I'm just assuming here that cells 1, 2, 3 and 6 are out of balance... or is this just a warning they're approaching that??? Since then the cell differential is now up to 0.23V... but is that enough to actually say they are truly out of balance? And if so, is that enough to...

    Follow-up... I received another reply from a fellow user, in which he stated my charging voltages were way too low. He then suddenly, before I even had the chance to finish replying, deleted the post. But it led me to believe I really don't know what I'm doing and now I'm even more confused...
