    Adding a second 24v EG4-LL; fully charge it first?

    OK cool, thanks. The first one was around 45% SOC when I received it, so it sounds like they are shipped fairly low anyhow.

    Charging Current Parameter Settings question

    So how have these setting been working for you? I have a SunGoldPower 24V 3kW, essentially the same as the Chins and PowMR, just dressed in different clothes. :LOL:

    Recommendations for easy backup-only system for a small home

    My "simple" setup is a SunGoldPower 24V 3kW all-in-one (AIO) inverter/charger, and two EG4-LL 24V 200Ah batteries (1 right now, 2nd was ordered yesterday). The not-so-simple part is 2500W of solar. During the day the batteries are charged from solar, and once it's dark and there's not enough...

    Sungoldpower 24V / 3kW - AC input breaker question
