Glad you got to use the byd batteries. I'm happy with mine.
Considering it's a trailer, and you likely drive it around sometimes, I would think the weight of the batteries would be of some concern. The first eight I bought were the kind that didn't have the heat sinks and fans. About 125 lbs...
Hi,
Whatever happened with your batteries? Sold? Still using them?
I ask because I have a 48v bank of 16 of these that have been running my house now for 2 years or so. Mine charge up to a 56v float at up to 140a of solar charging. They stay fairly well balanced as I paralleled all the cells...
Thought I would pass this along...
My battery bank is made up of 16 BYD 24v modules. These are, if I remember right, 280ah modules. The current ad doesn't say so memory is all I've got(and it's not that great)
Anyway, Battery clearing house has some for sale again, AND, there is currently a 20%...
Since you haven't mentioned it, guess I'll just come right out and ask; what do they cost? And where do I have to be to get them (as shipping is obviously out!)
Thanks
I had this same concern. Probably not a problem, but I use a 3 pole transfer switch to insure isolation. That way no connection to the inverter at all when not in use.
Since your panels are used they probably don't put out full wattage anyway, so you are probably ok being a bit over the 7000w rating. Also, how much time per day are your panels pointed directly at the sun? Anything less than a direct straight shot will give you something less than max...
