    JK-B2A24S Active Balancer firmware upgrade?

    I remember I had to Verify my password before changes would be allowed. I think I would get the send error message if I did not verify the password. The first thing I did in the app after verifying the password was to click the Lifepo4 button. I then made sure the app shows the correct number of...

    JK BMS Question

    I was trying to help, but it seems you got it figured out. I am using the JK BMS in a 24 volt system with 8 Eve cells of 230ah each. Like you, my cells stay balanced fairly well. I have one cell that seems to charge faster then the others, but they eventually balance. I need to check the...

    JK BMS Question

    I think I had to Allow Nearby Devices in the app permissions before the app would see the JK BMS. My phone could see it when scanning for bluetooth, but the app won't not find it.

    Chins all in one 3000 watt inverter 24V charger

    Growatt and MPP definitely have more people using them and a known track record on what to expect quality wise. These SRNE units can be $275 cheaper thus the appeal. I saw a Chins for $470 and a Jakiper for $445 on Amazon. Both with free shipping. I wonder how the 3yr Amazon Assurance warranty...

    Chins all in one 3000 watt inverter 24V charger

    It looks like the Midnight Solar MN3024DIY all in one. Even the user manual is nearly identical. I also saw it on Amazon.

    I've been seeing more of these AIO's that are similar to the Midnight Solar unit. I see Chins has one on Amazon now for $469 with free shipping. Same external appearance and the user manual seems identical. I don't know about warranty or customer service as I've never bought a Chins anything...

    PIP 2724LV-MR - Really 750 watts input?

    Has anyone ever seen a PIP 2724LV-MR actually get 750 watts of solar input? The watts 247 website says 600 watts, but the video on the product page shows 750 watts solar input on the unit sticker. The unit only outputs 25A DC. I have seen other 25A MPPT controllers show 680-700 watts, but none...

    WHY do all-in-one Solar Power Inverters have a high idle consumption? Asking to learn...

    I thought the MPP units had a power saving mode where idle consumption was < 15 watts.

    Hankzor JK BMS with screen and power button

    Do you mean a mobile phone cannot connect via bluetooth to the BMS while the display is connected to the BMS? That would be terrible.

    Security System for Off Grid Container(s) & Shed

    Not sure why they power off. They aren't meant to run 24/7 for 6 months. This has been a couple years back so maybe newer units are better. Just do some research and Google searches on whichever unit you plan to buy. You should check out the Calyx Institute for cheap, truly unlimited, high...

    Security System for Off Grid Container(s) & Shed

    I was looking at the Amazon Blink outdoor, waterproof, motion detecting, night vision cameras at $79 each and two AA batteries powers the cameras for 2 years. There is a "sync" unit that all cameras connect to then either saves the video to a USB drive or uploads to the Internet. It can also...
