    Top balancing server rack batteries

    Hey, @nelsonjrgomes, I was wondering if this worked out for you. I got some brand new EG4-LifePower4 Lithium Battery 48V 100AH. One of them gave me an 87.50 Ah on the first capacity test. I have cycled it a bit to no avail. Cell #9 keeps triggering the low voltage disconnect. But the only...

    Cheap class-T fuse vs well-reviewed ANL fuse

    Checks out. Thank you. Well, that answers my question. Thank you.

    Cheap class-T fuse vs well-reviewed ANL fuse

    Hi. I'm aware of the general recommendation of class-T fuses for 48V LiFePO4 systems over ANL fuses. But what about cheap and unreviewed class-T fuses vs known and well-reviewed ANL fuses? Specifically this uncharacteristically underpriced eBay fuse vs this common Amazon ANL fuse. Thanks.

    EcoFlow DELTA 1300 (Plug-N-Play)

    The Eco The EcoFlow Delta is limited to 10 amps. Let's say those three panels produce a max of 5 amps each. If they are connected in parallel, they can produce 15 amps total but the Delta will only accept 10 amps. Generally, these solar stations have charge controllers designed for series...

    Bluetti solar panel confusion

    It may have OVP, but I was concerned with investing in panels that the Bluetti wouldn't accept. That said, the voltage before plugging in was about 61V and everything was fine. And the panels when combined should do 480W, but when cold and facing the sun midday, they went over 500W for a bit...

    Temporary Sawhorse Solar Array

    It's not far from an electrical outlet. I was thinking of hacking a three prong extention and using the ground line only connected to the house. Is that a thing people do?

    Temporary Sawhorse Solar Array

    Just completed this solar panel setup inspired by Will's 600W sawhorse array. I used door hinges to secure the panels, which ended up being the perfect size.

    Bluetti solar panel confusion

    How strict is it? I ordered 3 RICH SOLAR 160 Watt panels with a Open Circuit Voltage of 22.3V. Multiplying by three gives a voltage of 66.9V. I chose those because when I ordered the 2400, I got an email from Maxoak that said it could accept 68V. Am I cutting it too close with those panels?

    Can I run a 115v fridge from 110v?

    I finally got the Bluetti 2400Wh. I used a 50' AmazonBasics 12/3 SJTW Extension Cord, a watt meter and a 1000 watt electric burner. The voltage went from 110.10 to 109.25 when turning on the burner.

    New Maxoak Bluetti 2400Wh EB240 came with a new AC charger

    My new Maxoak Bluetti 2400Wh EB240 just arrived and I was surprised to find that it comes with a new AC charger that puts out 220W DC. The Amazon page still says that it comes with a 160W charger. Not quite as good as the 450-500W you can get from DIY solutions or solar, but I'll take the 37.5%...

    Can I run a 115v fridge from 110v?

    A 12 gauge extension cord would help.

    I can't find it now. If think he took it down.

    EcoFlow DELTA 1300 (Plug-N-Play)

    It would be kinda cool to do something like that to the Bluetti. But instead of expanding the capacity, it is to have external access to the battery for a sligtly more powerful external inverter.
