      I kept the old BMS’s just in case anything happens. Too long of a lead time for anything to get down here. But hopefully I’ll have...

      I’ll try another protocol tomorrow. Maybe I can select another option that will allow me to connect to the CAN port instead of the...

      I recently changed my BMS on my Lifepo4 batteries and top balanced as I was having issues. Finally got the BMS up and going and used...

      I’ll post this last post issue in the general discussion section as I’m not sure if it’s inverter or BMS issue.

      Thanks for all of the help. Everything is setup and going now. I’m still using the RS485 port. When I went in to the UTAP protocol I...

      You’ll see in the last picture that the top battery was at 43% SOC and bottom battery fully charged. Batteries started giving problems...

      I probably burnt both BMS’s. Got error message 20 on Growatt inverter. Unless the jumper settings are different from the last BMS On...

      We’ll see if Lady Luck was really on my side. When I first touched the connections, a nice arc hit with a little smoke from around the...

      The positive and negative symbols are not visible on the batteries because of the bracket between the battery posts. I guess when I...

      Thanks for the suggestions. Found my issue. A mistake of not paying very close attention. Thanks

      Seems like it’s not the BMS. The board that was supposedly not working is working in the other battery pack. When I join the Bat+...

      Just swapped everything over. All cables and power switch works. I’ll swap the board to the one not working and see what it does

      Continuity is good. Reading 000.6
