I was not aware of the issue of generators damaging my Sol-Ark because of dirty power. I have a 5500 watt Troy bilt 120/240vac generator that has been converted to propane. I think it damaged my well pump years ago during a long power outage. If I ever need it, I'll have another way to charge my...

Thanks for your help on solving my issue I ordered a EG4 Chargeverter | 48v 100A Battery Charger today to use with my Generator in case of long term power outage

Thanks I think it was set at 56.5 before I started trying to figure out why the SOC was slowly going down over a four month period. So should I reduce my charge voltage down from 57.5?

Better results this morning after a full grid charge last night Battery pack #2 has come back up to 100% One of the changes I made as per one of the suggestions above was raising the charge voltage to 57.5 The overall SOC of the 6 batteries has been going down slowly over the last 4 months...

I'll do that tomorrow morning after the batteries have had a grid charge between at 1am and 6am There is some solar here today, but not enough to do a full charge

I took a fresh screen shot of BMS Test The readings have changed to what you see in this screen shot pack #2 is the one showing a low SOC compared to the other 5

In post #1, I posted the screen shot of BMS test program showing all 6 batteries Battery #2 is circled in red I have it set at 57.5 currently I think it was a 56.5 before?

This make more sense to me 1.0.5 or 1.0.6 to 1.1.0

Ok, I still have a problem. Rack battery #2 refuses to charge up to where the other 5 are It's setting in the 40% SOC now and the other 5 are 90% + SOC I need to get Signature Solar to have a look at my system.

Before updated the EG4 communications hub, my version was 1.5 After the firmware update, it shows as 1.10 This seems weird that the versions would go down? I see in Zapper's video, he got the same results He went from 1.6 to 1.10 So, was my previous version actually 1.05 Just curious about...

Thanks, The communication hub firmware update seems to have fixed my issue My system now reports that I am 100% SOC And battery #2 is not reporting funky readings in BMS test Thanks for all your help Here's a screen shot from power view

(I have a Sol-Ark 15k) Info is in post #1 I just checked my communications hub It is version 1.5, so it is out of date I went to Signature Solar to see if they has a download section, but I could not find anything I found the firmware section at EG4 I'll give the upgrade a go and see what happens

Thanks, not sure where I set that? I had Signature Solar go over everything and set it up I have a ticket into them as of 3 days ago Waiting for them to reply I will check and see if there is a new firmware for the communication hub

The Sol-Ark has 240 vac coming in from a sub panel It powers my shop 24-7 It charges during the day via solar And at 1am-6am via the grid Not sure about the bulk question? The graph below is a typical day for the Sol-Ark At 1am it is allowed to charge from the grid It usually only needs an...

I have a Sol-Ark 15k and 6 - EG4 rack batteries. I also have 6 - 400 watt Bi-Facial solar panels that charge during the day I have the Sol-Ark setup so that it only charges from the grid between 1am and 6am That's the cheapest rate for Duke power on the flex program My system has been running...
