I've found that your BMS needs load and charging source connected to come to life. Your SCC needs to see the battery to wake up as well...

Yeah, take that with a grain of salt. It could be an "urban rumor" that I picked up on. I CAN say that if rodents have a choice of PVC...

"Auditor, sir, as you can see here on my post on diysolaforum.com dated 2023..."

But, did you stay in a Holiday Inn last night??

Not recommended to keep LFP at 100% as a standby battery. That's the reason they are stored and shipped at _+/- 40%.

They're older Kyocera off-grid panels. The Kyocera "GT" (grid tie) panels have sealed diode boxes and MC-4 leads for series wiring.

Ok. ✅ I was assuming there were MC4 terminated cables coming out of (diode) ‘boxes.’ Unexpected.

Because they have junction boxes they can be parallel wired from box to box to box to box and the output comes out of the last box.

The only glitch in that setup would be if the trailer roof isn't large enough to line them up that way (I'm picturing all four panels in...

If you have 4 panels, you should be mounting them so all 4 j boxes are next to each other on the underneath side. This makes it real...

Thanks! I'll just have him come off the one end panel. It's a different wiring method but being that the J boxes are on the panels it...

So, when parallel wiring batteries it is beneficial to make your load and charging connections at diagonal corners of the battery. I...

Much harder to "be one with your panels" on a roof mount. I can on my roof when needed due to the 0 degree pitch.

From the manual, 12 Volt Model: 2x set of 4/0 AWG (2 red + 2 black) and quantity 2- ANL500KIT-500 Amp fuse kits for positive (red)...

Heck that's nothing. I run my house, power the neighborhood, mine thousands of Bitcoins, run an illegal grow operation, and still have...

Your active balancing should come on at about 3.40 - 3.45 vdc. Your absorb setting in the charging circuit should be turned down to...

2 Parallel strings of batteries are doable with the diagonal+ of one battery/- of the other battery method but you could also go with a...

Didn't (doesn't) the Tesla Powerwall come in high voltage? They originally were going to have a 48 volt version as well but stopped...

I wouldn't mind buying the blue stuff, but I would have to get another job to afford it :oops:
