  • Detailed look at cell imbalances using monitoring software for Jakiper / SOK 48v server rack

    I have three Jakiper JK48V100 48v server rack batteries. The cells differential goes far apart on charging. The video I made show how I interpret the data from the past 24 hours to see what is happening the all 16 cells in each battery pack. I am looking for feedback on my analysis and also on...
  • Jakiper JK48V100 battery bms balancing issue

    I got some Jakiper batteries last spring. . The software that comes from Jakiper is good and lets me watch what is going on with cells closely . I made a video this morning and described it all in detail if anyone is interested in seeing what I found out about balancing of cells. I am hoping...
  • Jakiper ( and SOK ?) 48v batteries with Pace bms will balance when not charging

    I have my Jakiper JK48v100 ( non pro model) on the bench and tested out the Pace bms for balancing. Andy from Off Grid Garage also recently made a video about this bms. At first I thought it only balances when charging which seemed kind useless for unbalanced cells since the passive bypass is...
  • Monitoring Jakiper ( maybe SOK too?) server rack batteries via modbus to Esp8266 mqtt

    I have been trying to monitor Jakiper server rack battery model JK48V100 via RS-485. The RS-485A port is programmable using Jakiper software. You can set it up to work with certain inverters using the Pbms Tools software that Jakiper provides . You need to connect to the RS-232 jack to use the...
  • 12v 230ah LiFePo4 lithium battery load test - Orient Power

    I recently got a 12v 230 ah lithium battery. I did a load test to see if it could provide the 200 amp limit which specifications said it was capable of. In the video I showed how I determine the correct charging and float voltages, how to use DC rated clamp meters, compared the bluetooth bms...
  • SOC not always accurate on Pace Bms ( maybe others too ? )

    I made a video showing my evaluation of SOC readings from Pace Bms used on my Jakiper / Orient Power batteries. My observation is that after a few days where the batteries don't totally fill up all the way the SOC gets off and should not be relied on. It could also be caused because the Pace Bms...
  • Orient Power 12v 230 Ah LiFePo4 battery review

    I just made a detailed review of Orient Power 12v 230 Ah lithium battery . I opened it up and took a look at the construction inside, looked at the operation of the bluetooth app, and then began charging it with a power supply to see how well the SOC was calibrated. But the weather turned on me...
  • Jakiper 48v (SOK?) battery BMS is Pace brand and not Seplos type

    I have been playing around with communications for the Jakiper 48v battery I received recently . The Jakiper supplied software that runs via RS232 port works fine. But I could never get it to work or any other Seplos type bms software to work on RS485 ports . I just discovered that it is not a...
