Bro, first, ditch the idea of Car batteries. For solar storage, you need deep cycle discharge batteries. Car batteries are not made for that. It wont last you more than 6months that is if you even get 6months. Second, most of the solar panels sold in Nigeria are junks imported from China. Their...

It is your battery BMS that is causing the issue. Once your battery is full, your BMS shuts it down by generating a very high voltage. This goes to your charge controller to indicate your battery is full. Most times this happens when your battery has charged to 14V. Remove it from the charger...

Go for Ecoflow. I can confirm that my Ecoflow River 2 works with my internet. I.e. I can control the device even when I am not at home nor on thesame network with the ecoflow.

I have messaged them to tell them it is a LIFEPO4 battery you want to ship. They probably thought it was a lead acid battery(they only ship that via ocean). Contact EG4 to send you a MSDS document that can confirm that the battery is safe for passenger plane travel and the risk of thermal run...

I wont advice you to ship Solar panels from the US to Lagos because they are made of glass and can break in transit. They wont even easily fit on an airplane. But all other parts like your battery, Charge controller, inverter and the rest are quite easy. I always buy them on Amazon US. LifePo4...

I dont know what that is. But I know it comes with a temperature probe for preventing low temperature charging

Thank you. I have thought about the inconvenience too. I should have started out with a 24v system in the first place. 12v batteries are less expensive but turns out every other thing in the system will be expensive in the long run.

It is a Litime 12V 40A Lifepo4 battery charger. Here is the amazon link. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BLS6K75Q/ref=ox_sc_saved_image_1?smid=ARUKXJLE7BDB9&psc=1

I have a 40A MPPT HQST charge controller. Got it during raining season so it wasnt really getting full power from my Panels. Was pushing out about 15A to my 12v 200ah battery. Now raining season is off and it has started outputting about 38, 39A. Meaning it is working at full power. I noticed it...

Was this issue eventually resolved. And how good is the bluetooth range of this battery monitor. I am looking into purchasing this version that doesnt come with a screen, but I am not sure how good the bluetooth range is. My battery will be in another room next to my room.

How good is the bluetooth range of this battery monitor. I am looking into purchasing the KL100F version that does come with a screen, but I am not sure how good the bluetooth range is. My battery will be in another room next to my room. Is the bluetooth range good

Oh, great. Is yours the KL version or the KG or KH version?

Can I work a fan for it or something. It doesnt have a fan and my ambient temperature at the moment is around 32degree Celcius(89F).

There is no There is no OVP triggered. My cells are balanced

Yes, my connection is tight

Hello, I have two different sets of batteries. Set 1 - Two 100ah Redodo 12v batteries paralleled together Set 2 - Two 100ah Litime 12v batteries paralleled together. I could not parallel all 4 together because they are from different manufacturers and I also bought them at different times...

Hello, I have a Junctek KH-F as well as a Junctek KL shunt battery monitors. When I am charging my 200ah LifePo4 battery with my AC charger(40A), the shunt gets extremely hot and I noticed this can sometimes drop my charger from producing it rated 40A to maybe 33A. I wanted to adjust the screw...

I have a 40A HQST MPPT charge controller with 2pcs of 300w solar panel. The maximum power I have gotten out of the two solar panels in very bright sunligt combined is 220W which is far from the 600w the panels are rated for. I had initially thought perhaps I had bought junk solar panels so I...

Hello guys. I was wondering, can I connect the following non identical panels in Series. I know there will be loss of effeciency but I just need to squize out all the power I can get pending the time I will get another charge controller and separate the panels. Panel A - Vmp: 40.9v Imp: 6A...

Like I said, I know the output will be reduced, I just want to be sure nothing will give off smoke(I want to know if it is safe) if I connect the 40V to the 25v together in series

Hello, I am relatively new to Lifepo4 Batteries. I have a Litime Mini 12v 100ah lifepo4 battery. I know they can be fast charged but should also not be charged above 0.5C rate. The manufacturer manual says recommended charging rate should be either 20Amps(0.2C) or 50Amps(0.5C) but they recommend...

T Thanks a lot for your response. I also learnt a new thing about those wire types

Oh, so you mean I would totally be fine with .4C charge rate. And if the battery lifespan will go down fast atall, it will be based on charge cycle degradation not 0.4C charge speed. Is that correct?

1. Renogy 1000w 2. 230V 3. 1000w continuous 4. 10w(No load) Inverter just put on. (<14w manufacture’s spec) However I have a question please. As soon as I plugged in a 9watt bulb into the inverter, shunt jumped from 10w idle to 24w. Meaning 15w is being used by the inverter. So with load on...

Thanks so much for the response. I got your explanation perfectly and thank you for the diagram, it makes the explanation even clearer

Oh, I see. Thank you.

One more thing, why did you decide to use two sets of busbars instead of just one set in the diagram

Hello, I would like to ask. I have two 12V, 100ah Redodo LIFEPO4 battery. Bought the two batteries thesame time and I have been using them in a parallel configuration to get 12v, 200ah. Of recent I ran into an issue… I have a 40A mppt charge controller. But at 12V, the maximum wattage that the...

https://a.co/d/dbPqLJs Thats the controller. Once load exceeds 200w, battery starts to gets discharged as shown on the battery monitor so that means it is only 200w or there about that the battery is getting in from the controller. So I am really confused as to where to even begin my...
