The batteries are fine. What may have helped was some info on battery behavior like alarm trips and recovery settings. If you're not a seasoned solar tinkerer, seeing red alarm lights going off when nothing is actually wrong with the batteries that you just spent $3k on is a bit concerning. The...

I'd pick this up after my battery issue is resolved. Though I'm not sure how Will and/or mods would react... probably ban both of us. So, I'll probably leave it alone.

copy that

I got the joke, that's all that matters.

later tonight/tomorrow. If I end up having to send these back to you, we need to figure it out by end of day thursday so I can leave them with my parents. I've already wasted hundreds of $$ in gas going back and forth trying to solve this issue. Needs to stop. I work out on the coast and can't...

Already did all this a couple weeks ago. That's why this thread exists, due to no change. Will update more when I have access to computer later. Thanks.

I agree. Signature Solar will not cooperate and will not hear my pleas. Meanwhile I'm supposed to keep a cool head when I'm absolutely livid. Else public perception ..."well, you were an a-hole, no wonder they won't talk with you!" Can't win these days with everyone woke af.

They're both "bad" batteries. The other battery I referred to in this thread is the A123 systems battery I posted about in the past. It's just there for backup in case the SS craps out on me.

you would think, but I've already sent them this pic. That's why I found it on my drive.

Well, if the BMS is set to 48v but the battery is hardwired for 24v.... the issues I'm having would start to make sense, but just barely. Still more sense than anything else I've tried. This is why the capacity was initially set to 100Ah instead of 200Ah, as it should have been. But what other...

I'll be heading back to my parent's to take another crack at this. It's the only place I have access to PC and power to plug up to. Will post pics for you guys tomorrow.

I'm not done. None of you are suggesting anything new that I haven't thought of or tried. The charger is 12A. As I stated earlier, there have been instances where I've left it plugged in for 48-72 hours with no change. Something with this battery is F'd up. I believe it's the BMS. All signs...

It's not. At least that's not what the monitoring software shows when I watch it while it's charging. No alarms in history. No history at all, actually. You guys keep trying to make sense of things, I'm telling you it doesn't.

Right, I've been down all these roads. None of it makes sense from all the data I have, none of it. I've changed every setting several times, I've cycled, I've charged other batteries perfectly fine on the same equipment with the same settings. It's the batteries/BMS. I guess I just wait and run...

Further, I'd just like to call attention to how overcomplicated our lives have become. My entire life has been held up for 2 months for what will, most probably, turn out to be a simple setting change on some software... and NOT some actual physical problem. No, just some digits in some hidden...
